General Section  24 
FUNCTION MODE - 
Functions Common to GLIDER, ACRO and HELI model types 
Programs found in the function mode are more 
frequently used. Not only are these functions used 
during initial setup, but many of these are commonly 
adjusted at the field to change/optimize the flight 
characteristics and response of an aircraft.  
To enter function modes, turn on the transmitter then 
press the ENT button. To enter the function list mode, 
press the list mode after the function mode has been 
selected 
This section describes the functions that are common to 
all 3 model types, ie. the Trainer and Fail safe 
functions, and the Throttle Cut and Trim Select funtion 
common to the Heli and Acro functions. Functions that 
are specific to each model type are covered in the each 
of the glider, acro and heli sections. 
 
Throttle Cut and Trim Select 
The PCM9X II features an intelligent throttle trim as well 
as a throttle cut function. One or the other can be 
activated at a time. The throttle cut function turns the 
trainer switch into an engine kill switch. 
 
The trim select allows the throttle trim to remember a 
predetermined position. When a good idle point is found 
with the trim, activate the trim memory. This allows 
stopping of the engine with the throttle trim, but one 
click forwards on the trim will return the digital trim to 
the predetermined idle position.
