About the Transmitter
The
transmitter has two silver toggle switches on its face at the top corners. They
have no function. Next to the right toggle is a black pushbutton, which also has
no function. On the back is a set of 8 small DIP switches. The first four
determine the polarity of the servos, the other four are unused. There is
s-video type plug which the simulator cable plugs into. There is a jack that
looks like it might be for an external antenna, but its use is unknown. There is
a jack for an AC adapter, but its use is not recommended. This jack is probably
meant to be used with rechargeable batteries. The "bar graph" on the transmitter
seems to indicate battery power. As the batteries lose charge, the bars decrease
from right to left.
There is a
silver eyelet between the joysticks so you can attach the transmitter to a
neckstrap, recommended to keep from dropping the radio.
The DIP
switches should all be set to Off (left) except for 1, 3 and 4. (Note that this
corresponds to the Inverted setting in the Control setup in the simulator. The
switch settings are the same for both Mode 1 and Mode 2.)
