Preparations, carrying out the range check:
1. Select "Range check" mode on the PROFImc transmitter
with M-LINK technology:
Switch the transmitter ON.
Within four seconds of switching the transmitter ON,
press and hold the LED push-button until the LED itself
glows continuously.
2. Switch the M-LINK receiver ON.
3. Carry out the range check as described in the operating
instructions supplied with your M-LINK receiver.
4. When the range check is complete, switch the PROFImc
transmitter with M-LINK technology OFF, and then ON
again, in order to switch back to full range.
! Caution: selecting "Range check" mode reduces the
transmitter's output power. The transmitter emits an audible
signal every ten seconds or so to warn you of this. Never
attempt to fly a model with the transmitter set to reduced
output (range check mode)!

This is the procedure for operating your PROFImc transmitter
with M-LINK technology in normal mode:
1. Switch the transmitter ON:
=> The LED in the LED-button flashes once approximately
every two seconds.
2. Switch the M-LINK receiver ON.
The M-LINK system is now ready for use.

EEDBACK CHANNEL
The 2.4 GHz ISM band offers the facility to transmit model data
back to the transmitter. If you are using a telemetry-capable M-
LINK receiver, the PROFImc transmitter with M-LINK technology
emits an audible signal if the receiver battery falls to a pre-set
voltage threshold, warning you that the battery is almost flat.
For more information on this feature, please refer to the opera-
ting instructions supplied with your telemetry-capable M-LINK
receiver.

In Fast Response mode, which operates at the ultra-rapid pulse
rate of 14 ms, up to twelve servo channels are available. This
reduced pulse rate can cause analogue servos to oscillate or run
jerkily.
If this occurs, or if you need to use the maximum of sixteen ser-
vo channels, it is possible to switch Fast Response mode OFF
on the PROFImc 3010, PROFImc 3030 or PROFImc 4000
transmitter with M-LINK technology. The pulse rate is then 21 ms.
This is the procedure for switching Fast Response ON or OFF if
you are using a PROFImc 3010, PROFImc 3030 or PROFImc
4000 transmitter with M-LINK technology:
1. Switch the transmitter OFF, then open the transmitter case.
2. Withdraw the installed HFM3 M-LINK 2.4 GHz RF module.
3. Locate the left-hand switch (switch 1) on the underside of the
HFM3 M-LINK 2.4 GHz RF module:
Switch 1 in ON (up) position = Fast Response ON
Switch 1 in OFF (down) position = Fast Response OFF
Default setting: Fast Response mode OFF

PERATING THE
RF
MODULE WITH
R
ANGE
In particular countries the M-LINK system must not be used
without activating the reduced frequency range approved in that
region (
4.). For an overview of the countries concerned
please refer to the separate sheet entitled "Operating the 2.4
GHz M-LINK system with restricted frequency range".
This is the procedure for activating the restricted frequency
range:
1. Locate the two switches on the underside of the HFM3
M-LINK RF module, and carefully move the right-hand switch
(switch 2) to the ON position (ON / up), using a small screw-
driver. Caution: never use a pencil to do this!
! Note: in the interests of clarity we took the right-hand
photo after removing the RF module case.
2. Now repeat the binding procedure with all the receivers you
wish to use with the transmitter (
! Note:
If you subsequently decide to operate the M-LINK system
using the maximum possible frequency range:
1. Move the right-hand switch (switch 2) back to the OFF
position (down / default setting).
2. Now repeat the binding procedure with all the receivers
you wish to use with the transmitter (
