Program description - MIX-only channel
MIX-only channel
Separating control functions from control channels for all flight phases
This option is available on the mc-20
HoTT transmitter only.
Use the selection keys of the left or right
four-way button to scroll to the »MIX-only
channel« menu option in the Multi-function menu:
Fl. phase timer
Wing mixers
Dual mixer
Free mixers
MIX active/phase
MIX-only channel
Fl. phase timer
Helicopter mixer
Dual mixer
Free mixers
MIX active/phase
MIX-only channel
Open this menu option with a tap on the centre SET
key of the right four-way button:
Mix-only channel
only
normal
1 2 3
4

This menu can be used to interrupt the normal signal
flow between the input side control function and the
output side control channel, therefore the “classic”
control-to-servo connection is actually separated.
Use the potential offered by this ight phase
independent menu, particularly to keep one of
the control channels “free” in all flight phases
from assignment to a transmitter control or switch for
specific flight phases in the »Control adjust« menu.
Conversely of course, such a stick, transmitter control
or switch “robbed” of its servo can still be used freely
as a control in other way – indeed even in flight phase
dependence – , refer to the programming examples at
the end of this section.
A stick, transmitter control or switch robbed of its servo
by setting the channel to “MIX only” will then namely
affect mixer inputs only …
… and the servo connected to a channel set to “MIX
only” is then also only accessible from the mixers
programmed to its control channel, i. e. “(with) MIX(ers)
only”.
Accordingly, for any channel set to “MIX only”, you can
utilize both its control function and its control channel
entirely independently of one another for any special
functions you need; see the examples at the end of
this section. A further option provided by a channel
set to “MIX-only” status is the facility to program timed
sequences using a mixer programmed to the same
channel, and set up using the “- Time +” option of the
»Control adjust« menu; see pages 112 and 116.
See page 310 for a programming example.
Basic programming procedure
Use the selection keys on the left or the centre SET
key of the right four-way button to select the desired
channel to switch at will between “normal” (
) and “MIX
only” ( ) modes:
Mix-only channel
only
normal
1 2 3
4
5
6
normal
7 8 9
10
11
12
Mix-only channel
only
Examples:
• For model glider aircraft without airbrakes, the but-
tery function, page 180, is generally used as a
landing aid. Just as with “normal” airbrakes, this is
generally controlled using the C1 stick. While the
(airbrakes) servo typically connected to channel 1
is then generally absent as a rule, receiver output
1 is still not “free”, since the control signal of the
brake stick is still present at this location.
Its control signal – which in this specic case is not
desired – can be decoupled from control channel
“1” to thus “free up” this channel from the C1 stick
signal by setting channel 1 to “MIX only” in the
»MIX-only channel« menu. This makes it pos-
sible to use control channel “1”, together with re-
ceiver connection “1”, at any time for other pur-
poses, via freely-programmable mixers – e. g. to
connect up a speed controller.
