X-Plus Channels and Failsafe
Failsafe is not supported for servos connected to the X-Plus
Module. We recommend that no failsafe should be expected or
attempted for a servo connected through the X-Plus Module.
However, servos connected to the X-Plus Module will hold last
command in the event of a failsafe condition.
To Activate X-Plus
1. Open the Frame Rate Menu in System Setup.
2. Scroll to X-Plus
and press the scroll
wheel to activate.
The X-Plus Inputs
screen is now active
in the Channel As-
sign menu.
AUX6 and AUX7 channels are available on 12-channel receivers
when X-Plus is active. AUX6 and AUX7 are 2048 resolution and
22ms frame rate (12-channel receivers only).
Channels X+1 and X+2 are duplicate channels of channels 11
and 12 on a 12 channel receiver with X-Plus active. If channels 11
and 12 require any adjustment for travel adjust, servo reversing,
sub trim or any other function, adjust channels X+1 and X+2.
Note that channels 11 and 12 will also show on the X-Plus monitor
as channels X+1 and X+2.
If you select 11ms frame rate before you activate X-Plus, the
transmitter reverts to 22ms frame rate when X-Plus is active.
CAUTION: Do NOT connect throttle or any primary
control surface to the X-Plus Module. The X-Plus chan-
nels are intended to be used for auxiliary functions only. X-Plus
channels have a resolution of 512 and variable latency from
22ms to about 88ms. When X-Plus is active, the fi rst 10 chan-
nels default to 22ms.
Refer to community.spektrumrc.com for more information
about X-Plus options.
