Channel 3 Control

CH3-POSI

Level

LV3 Only

DEFINITION: Sets the default or neutral position for the channel 3 servo.

Defaults to being adjustable with dial 3.

AVAILABLE FOR: channel 3 only.
ADJUSTABILITY: -100% to 0 to +100%. Default adjusts with dial 3, may be

reassigned with

FUNC-DIAL (see pp. 34-35).

INTERACTION: Channel 3 position is relative to channel 3’s EPA.
DESIRED END RESULT: Fine tune the channel 3 neutral position. May also be

used to adjust channel 3 to a specific position and leave it there if adjustability
is not assigned to a dial (see

FUNC-DIAL, pp. 34-35).

CAUTION: Dial 2 defaults to ATL adjustment, even if user does not realize it.

Programmable Mixes

PRG-MIX1, PRG-MIX2

Level

LV3 Only

DEFINITIONS:

Programmable mixing function: Allows user to create mixing between the
steering, throttle and channel 3 servos. Brake mixing is an example of built-in mixes.

Master: The channel the slave will follow. In brake mixing, the throttle
channel’s braking side.

Slave: The channel that follows the master. In brake mixing, channel 3 (front brakes).

Offset: Amount off center to adjust the mix.

Mix Mode: Selects whether slave moves exactly based upon the master control’s
movement (unmixed) or the master channel’s servo movements after any mixing
(mixed). Brake mixing unmixed means front brakes respond exactly based upon
trigger position while rear braking is changed by ABS, Speed Limiter, etc.

Trim: Sets whether the slave channel is (

ON) or is not (OFF) adjusted with the

master when using the master channel’s trim.

AVAILABLE FOR: Throttle, steering, channel 3.

0 to 18% (with the digital trim centered).

(If using

LV1 or LV2, first select level LV3,

see p. 12.)

Where Next:

STEPS:

trim 3.

While viewing home screen, adjust digital
trim 3 until 3CH reads 0.
Select channel 3 positioning.
