FUNCTION 1 - SET CHANNEL MAPPING
Range: 1 to number of receiver channels
Channel mapping is a handy feature when you have a transmitter with
limited functionality or you just want assign channels to different output
pins. The default channel map is 1:1. This means that the transmitter’s
channel 1 is mapped to the XtremeLink
®
receiver’s output channel 1. One
common use for this feature is assigning two throttle outputs. Instead of
using a “Y-cable” to tie the servo outputs together, you can just assign a
second output. You could use the normal throttle channel output (channel 1
for most JR), and assign it also to be a channel 10 output (providing you had
a 10 channel XtremeLink
®
receiver). The outputs occur at the exact same
time, completely eliminating any type of “lag” that is common when using
individual channels for duplicating outputs.
With the STATUS LED solid red, press and hold the programming button until
the STATUS LED turns off. The STATUS LED will now flash orange the
number of times equal to the current receiver servo output position, followed
by a one second pause. When you first enter the channel map programming
(output 1), the STATUS LED will flash once, followed by a one second pause.
Every time you press and release the programming button, the channel map
position will advance by one. The channel map position begins at output 1
(one flash) and ends with the number of channels that your receiver has.
So, the 8 channel XtremeLink
®
has eight possible channel map positions,
while the 10 channel XtremeLink
®
receiver has ten possible channel map
positions.
To change the channel map output, press and hold the programming button
until the STATUS LED turns off, and begins flashing green. The STATUS LED
will begin flashing green the number of times equal to the current
transmitter channel number for that servo output position. For example, the
default value of the channel map 1 would flash just once, indicating the
throttle channel (for JR radios). After the STATUS LED is done flashing
green, you have five seconds to enter a new channel number value. You do
this by pressing and releasing the programming button the number of times
equal to the new channel number. NOTE - It is possible to set the channel
number to be any value from 1 to 16. This allows you to assign a channel
number higher than what you receiver normally has for outputs. An
example of this would be using a 6 channel XtremeLink
®
receiver with
channel 7 assigned to servo output position 5 (which might be a proportional
control for a variable pitch propeller).
