Multiplex Souffleur Notice D'utilisation page 9

LED starts flashing at a low rate: the Souffleur is now in
Receive mode.
Now switch on the telemetry-capable M-LINK receiver in
your model. As soon as the Souffleur detects the downlink
channel from the receiver, speech output is active.
Note: if the receiver is not yet bound to your transmitter, you
must first carry out that step.
4.4. The Souffleur in use
The Souffleur operates independently of the Fast Response
setting of your M-Link transmitter, so you do not have to re-
bind the Souffleur every time you switch models. When
switched on, the Souffleur takes about five to ten seconds to
synchronise with the M-LINK transmitter.
When the Souffleur is started, it announces the number of
the last selected memory.
 The Souffleur has five configuration memories, and al-
ways starts with the last selected memory. In the Standard
set-up (factory default) all memories contain the same
settings. If you wish to use the memories with different
configurations you must set up the Souffleur individually
(see 4.10). If you briefly press the Set button immediately
after the Souffleur speaks the first memory, you move
directly to memory 2, 3, 4 or 5. It is only possible to switch
memories immediately after starting the Souffleur.
4.5. Aerial orientation at the flying field
When flying, always carry the Souffleur in such a way that
the integral IOAT aerial (which is located under the
"SOUFFLEUR" name printed on the case) has line-of-sight
connection to your model; this is essential for obtaining op-
timum reception of telemetry data. If necessary, you can pull
out the handle from the case in the vertical direction, turn it
through 180° and re-fit it.
4.6. Speech output in Standard set-up
(factory default)
You can start speech output at any time by briefly pressing
the Set button (< 1 second); when you do this, all the
available values are spoken once.
In Standard set-up speech output is configured in such a
way that it works automatically with all currently available
MULTIPLEX sensors, and requires no further adjustment. If
this is to work, the sensor addresses must be at their res-
pective default settings (see following table).
Notes on the Standard set-up of the Souffleur:
The output of long-term values (values which change
slowly) is generated cyclically every two minutes; those
values are also spoken if an alarm is triggered, or if you
press the Set button. Momentary values (rpm, speed,
current) are only spoken when an alarm is triggered, or if
you press the Set button.
If a value rises above or falls below an alarm threshold, the
spoken message commences with the word "Caution ...".
By default M-LINK receivers are set up with an alarm
threshold for the power supply voltage.
Note for Users  and : the alarm threshold for sensors
has to be set at the sensor itself.

4.7.
The Souffleur recognises sensor values which use the m/s unit
(metres per second). These values are converted into a vario tone
instead of being generated in speech form. The vario tone is
generated constantly, but may be interrupted by spoken
messages relating to other telemetry values.
When flying a model you can switch the vario tone off and on by
holding the Set button pressed in for about two seconds and then
releasing it.
 Note: if you have assigned a servo channel as vario switch in
the Souffleur, then the unit ignores the vario tone On / Off function
of the Set button.
4.8.
The Souffleur switches itself off automatically if it picks up no tele-
metry data for a period of five minutes.
When the rechargeable battery is almost flat, the Souffleur
generates a spoken message to inform you. If the battery is
completely discharged (final discharge voltage reached), the
Souffleur automatically switches itself off.
The Souffleur can be charged from your PC or laptop using the
USB lead supplied in the set. Alternatively you can use any USB
battery charger (see 7. Accessories). The Souffleur features
integral charge management: the charge process is complete
when the red charge LED goes out. The maximum charge period
is about one hour.
