When the range test is activated, the transmitter's
output power will be signifi cantly reduced and the
blue LED on the antenna's socket will begin to
blink. At the same time, the timer display in the
transmitter's screen will start counting down and
ev
ery 5 seconds a two-frequency tone will sound.

Five seconds prior to the end of the range test a
three-frequency tone will sound once every second.
After expiration of the range test's 99th second the
transmitter will again be switched to full output power
and the blue LED will again illuminate constantly.
Move a
way from the model while manipulating 6.
the joysticks during this timespan. If you notice an
interruption anytime while still within a distance of
about 50 m, try to reproduce this malfunction.
If there is a motor in the model, it may be necessary 7.
to switch it on to further check noise immunity.
Continue moving away from the model until perfect 8.
control is no longer possible.
Wait at this distance for the remainder of the test 9.
period with the still-operationally-ready model to
expire. After the range test is ended it should again
respond correctly to all RC controls. If this is not 100
% the case, do not use the system. Contact your
area's Graupner GmbH & Co. KG service partner.
Perform the range test before each fl ight and, in 10.
doing so, simulate all servo movements which also
take place during fl ight. The range must always be
at 50 m on the ground in order to assure safe model
operation.
Attention:
Never start the range test on the transmitter during
normal operation of the model.
DSC output
If necessary, use the cd arrow keys of the left or right
touch pad to reach the "DSC output"
line of the menu
then activate this menu item by briefl y pressing the
center
SET button in the right touch pad.

Now you can use the right arrow keys to choose
between three types of modulation "PPM10", "PPM18"
and "PPM24". Pressing the center
SET button in the
right touch pad again will complete the entry.
This choice primarily infl uences the maximum number
of control channels which can be attached to the DSC
(direct servo control) soc
ket, and thus also available to
a fl ight simulator or teacher/pupil system. This maximum
is control channels 1 ... 5 if "PPM10" is selected, control
channels 1 ... 9 for "PPM18" and control channels 1 ...
12 for "PPM24".
Cut-off
Depending on the "idle forward or back" choice made
in the "Motor at C1" line of the "Model type" menu, this
motor "cut off" option can be coupled to a switch for
throttling down a speed controller or to move a servo on
the carburetor of a motor to the OFF (or idle) position.
The motor OFF position (or idle setting) will then
be preset by the left column directly over the "SEL"
fi eld. The appropriate value for this entry fi eld is to be
established through trial and error
A speed controller or throttle servo will only take on
this preset position when a certain servo position or
threshold is underrun and a switch is activated. This is
done by setting the desired servo position (threshold
value) into the middle column, directly over the "STO"
fi eld then selecting the appropriate ON/OFF switch
function in the right column.
If the percentage value specifi ed for the middle •
column is greater than the current servo position, i. e.
the current servo position lies below the threshold,
the switchover will occur as soon as the switch is put
into its ON position.
If the percentage value specifi ed for the middle •
column is less than the current servo position, i. e.
the current servo position is above the threshold, the
speed controller will initially reduce motor speed or
close the carburetor's throttle servo only to the extent
dictated by the value in the left column as soon as
the servo's position once underrunsthe threshold
(max. +150 %) after the switch is changed over to its
