Safe-Link - Multiplex Cockpit SX 7 Mode D'emploi

13. SAFE-LINK

The COCKPIT SX is equipped with an innovative technology
termed MULTIPLEX SAFE-LINK. This allows the user to avoid
possible confusion by assigning an individual "code num-
ber" to each model memory; this is available with immediate
effect.
If you accidentally select a model memory which does not
match the SAFE-LINK code stored in the receiver, then the
receiver is not activated; the feature works in a similar man-
ner to a car immobiliser.
The SAFE-LINK code is transmitted every time a "binding"
procedure is carried out; it is then stored in the receiver.
The software reserves fifty SAFE-LINK numbers for you, any
of which you can select at will.
If you do not wish to use the SAFE-LINK function, you can
simply leave this option at "OFF".
The SAFE-LINK function represents an important safety
enhancement, but the following points must be
observed:
· You must never, under any circumstances, activate or
disable the SAFE-LINK function, or change the SAFE-LINK
number, when the model is switched on!
Exception: see SAFE-LINK switch
Injury hazard! The model's motor could start running if
the fail-safe setting is incorrect or undefined.
· Every time you activate or disable SAFE-LINK, or change
the SAFE-LINK number, it is essential to carry out a new
"binding" procedure. We also strongly recommend that you
set "fail-safe" with throttle in the OFF position.
SAFE-LINK switch;
The SAFE-LINK function can be expanded by assigning a
SAFE-LINK switch and defining a SAFE-LINK number.
This makes it possible to switch between several SAFE-LINK
numbers during a session.
This function is particularly useful with multi-function
(ground-based) models, where the operator needs
to switch quickly and conveniently between sever-
al vehicles - e.g. dredger -> low-loader / tipper ->
bulldozer - using the same radio control transmitter.
The model settings must be the same.
To use this feature it is necessary to assign a switch and a
SAFE-LINK number. You then move the SAFE-LINK switch
to the desired position, and "bind" the appropriate model.
Please note that all the models must share the same model
settings.
If you wish or need to control models with entirely different
settings, we recommend that you do not use the SAFE-LINK
switch. Instead you should set up different model memories
with individual SAFE-LINK numbers. You can then switch
model memories during the session.
We recommend that you only use the SAFE-LINK switch
function with multi-function (ground-based) models, where
safety is not usually an issue.
