PROG MIX - Programmable Mixers (continued)
Offset - (Std. Prog Mixer)
The Offset parameter defines the position of the Master
where the mixer changes directions. The Offset
automatically defaults to a channel’s center position or
0 (zero). For example, if the Rudder is the Master, the
Offset will automatically default to the center stick
position (no rudder input). Since the Offset is at the
center, moving the rudder stick to the left of center
causes a mix in one direction while moving the rudder
stick to the right of center causes a mix in the other
direction. Directions correspond to the upper and lower
percentages for Pos0 and the upper and lower
percentages of Pos1. The amount of mix and actual
direction that the slave moves is determined by the
Pos0/Pos1 values. The Offset applies to both Pos0 and
Pos1 settings.
The Offset may be changed by highlighting and
selecting Offset and adjusting either a positive (+) or
negative (-) value. A positive percentage moves the
offset in one direction from center while a negative
percentage moves the Offset in the other direction from
center.
Available Switches - (Std. Prog Mixer)
There are 3 switches that can be always used to switch
between the Pos0 and Pos1 settings (if the upper and
lower settings for Pos0 or Pos1 are left at 0% the mixer
can be turned on and off with the switch). They include
the Butterfly switch, Motor switch and the Rudder D/R
switch. In addition, if Flight Modes are activated in the
Devic.SEL function, then 5 more switche positions may
be selected: Cruise, Speed, Thermal, Launch and
Land, which correspond to the various flight modes.
To select a switch that will switch between the Pos0
and Pos1 values, highlight and select the switch name
and it will toggle between pos0 and pos1. Set the
desired switch(es) to pos1.
CLR Button - (Std. Prog Mixer)
Pressing the CLR button while a modifiable parameter
is selected will reset the parameter to its default value.
NOTE: Pressing the CLR button when either the Master
or Slave is highlighted Inhibits the entire mixer and it is
no longer functional.
LIST Button - (Std. Prog Mixer)
Press the LIST button to return to the FUNCTION List,
or rotate the rotary selector until LST appears next to
LIST and select it to return to the SYSTEM Menu.
ENT Button - (Std. Prog Mixer)
Pressing the ENT button returns to the Main Display.
TO INHIBIT A MIXER (TURN IT OFF
ENTIRELY)
Highlight either the Master or Slave and press the CLR
button to completely disable a mixer.
