Program description - Teacher/pupil
Teacher/pupil
Connecting two transmitters for trainer mode with a trainer lead
This option is available on both transmit-
ter types.
The transmitters
mc-16 HoTT and mc-
20 HoTT are equipped as standard – as
viewed from the front, under the left front flap – with
a DSC socket. This is not only usable for connecting
flight simulators – as described on page 24 – but also
to integrate the transmitter into a cable-coupled teach-
er/pupil system.
To accommodate the settings necessary for this, scroll
with the selection keys on the left or right four-way but-
ton to the »Teacher/pupil« menu option in the Multi-
function menu:
Tx. output swap
Telemetry
Fail-safe adjust
Profi trim
Trim memory
Teacher / pupil
Open this menu option with a tap on the centre SET
key of the right four-way button:

Note:
The screen image shown above shows the
menu in its initial state: No transmitter con-
trols have been released by the pupil ( ) and
no switch is assigned (“SW: ---” bottom left in the
screen image).
Teacher-pupil settings
Up to eight function inputs (see “Definitions of terms”
on page 58) of an
mc-16 HoTT transmitter set
up as Teacher transmitter can be transferred individu-
ally, or in any combination you wish, from the Teacher
transmitter “L” to the Pupil transmitter “S”. The same
applies with a maximum of twelve function inputs
(see “Definitions of terms” on page 58) of a twelve-
channel mc-20 HoTT transmitter set up as Teacher
transmitter.
The lower display line, designated with “Teacher”,
therefore indicates the function inputs with which
control functions 1 … 4 (stick functions for fixed-wing
and helicopter models) are permanently connected as
well as inputs 5 … max. 12, which can be freely as-
signed in the »Control adjust« menu.
Note:
Just which controls are assigned to any
inputs turned over to the pupil is basically of
no consequence. However, their assignment
in the »Control adjust« menu is possible only when
the trainer mode connection is inactive.
Use the selection keys of the left or right four-way
button to select the function inputs 1 through max. 12
for transfer to the pupil () then briefly tap centre SET
key of the right four-way button for each switch to be
switched between “Teacher” (
) and “Pupil” ( ):

To be able to carry out the transfer, you must then as-
sign a trainer mode switch on the left of the display. Do
this by placing the marker just to the right of the “SW”
at the bottom left of the screen display by using the
selection keys of the left or right four-way button then
assign a switch as described in the section “Physical
control, switch and control switch assignments” on
page 60.
Preferably you should utilize a momentary switch to
allow a return of control to the teacher transmitter at
any time:

Since at this early stage of programming a trainer
system it is unlikely that an operational pupil transmitter
is connected to the teacher transmitter, the transmitter
responds immediately to the switches closed during
the switch assignment process with appropriate visual
and audible warning notices. You should therefore re-
open the switch you have just assigned:
