Telemetry
The menus grouped together under the overall heading
"Telemetry" are called up with the optional available
Smart-Box
Install the SMART-BOX at the mounting bracket of the
transmitter fi gure. Connect the box then the 3-pin lead to
the transmitter. Put one end of the cable into the DATA
jack on the transmitter and the other into the jack on the
right side of the SMART-BOX. The connector system is
polarised, look for the small camfer on the edges. Never
use force - the plug should engage easily and fully. The
sockets are labeled accordingly: black wire (-), red wire
(+) and orange wire (S).
Basic menu operation
In general terms the "Telemetry" menu is operated with
the four buttons on the top of the Smart-Box. You can
switch between the individual pages of the Telemetry
menu using the
ESC
and
ENTER
buttons: you will fi nd
corresponding direction indicators at top right of every
screen page in the form of angle brackets (< >); see
illustrations. If only one angle bracket is visible, then you
are currently at the fi rst or last page. In this case it is
only possible to switch pages in the direction indicated
by the angle bracket.
Menu lines in which parameters can be altered are
marked with an angle bracket prefi x (>). Pressing the
buttons
INC
and
DEC
causes the ">" pointer to jump
forward or back by one line. Lines to which you cannot
jump contain no user-variable values.
If you wish to change a parameter, press the
button simultanously to highlight the parameter (black
background)). Change the value within the possible
range using the
INC
or
DEC
buttons, and then press the
