Program description - Teacher/pupil
Teacher/pupil
Connecting two transmitters for trainer mode with a trainer lead
This option is available as standard on
both transmitter types.
The transmitters
mc-16 HoTT and
mc-20 HoTT are equipped as stand-
ard as viewed from the front, under the left front
flap with a DSC socket. This is not only usable for
connecting flight simulators as described on page
22 but also to integrate the transmitter into a
cable-coupled teacher/pupil system.
To accommodate the settings necessary for this,
scroll with the selection keys on the left or right four-
way button to the »Teacher/pupil« menu option in
the Multifunction menu:
Tx. output swap
Telemetry
Fail-safe adjust
Profi trim
Trim memory
Teacher / pupil
Open this menu option with a tap on the center SET
key of the right four-way button:

Note:
The screen image shown above shows the menu
in its initial state: No transmitter controls have been
released by the pupil ( ) and no switch is assigned
(“SW: ---” bottom left in the screen image).
When assigning control functions, the usual conven-
tions must be observed:
Channel Function
1 Motor throttle/collective pitch
2 Aileron/roll
3 Elevator/pitch-axis
4 Rudder/tail rotor
Teacher-pupil settings
Up to eight function inputs (see “Definitions of terms”
on page 66) of an
mc-16 HoTT transmitter set
up as Teacher transmitter can be transferred individu-
ally, or in any combination you wish, from the Teacher
transmitter “L to the Pupil transmitter “S”. The same
applies with a maximum of twelve function inputs
(see “Definitions of terms” on page 66) of an mc-
16 HoTT transmitter with twelve channels unlocked
and set up as Teacher transmitter, and the standard
twelve-channel mc-20 HoTT transmitter.
The lower display line, designated with “Teacher”,
therefore indicates the function inputs with which
control functions 1 … 4 (stick functions for fixed-wing
and helicopter models) are permanently connected
as well as inputs 5 … max. 12, which can be freely
assigned in the »Control adjust« menu.
Note:
Just which controls are assigned to any inputs turned
over to the pupil is basically of no consequence. How-
ever, their assignment in the »Control adjust« menu
is possible only when the trainer mode connection is
inactive.
Use the  selection keys of the left or right four-
way button to select the function inputs 1 through
max. 12 for transfer to the pupil () then briefly tap
center SET key of the right four-way button for each
switch to be switched between “Teacher” (
) and
“Pupil” ( ):

To be able to carry out the transfer, you must then
assign a trainer mode switch on the left of the display.
Do this by placing the marker just to the right of the
“SW” at the bottom left of the screen display by using
the selection keys of the left or right four-way but-
ton then assign a switch as described in the section
“Physical control, switch and control switch assign-
ments” on page 68.
Preferably you should utilize a momentary switch to
allow a return of control to the teacher transmitter at
any time:

Since at this early stage of programming a trainer
system it is unlikely that an operational pupil transmit-
ter is connected to the teacher transmitter, the trans-
mitter responds immediately to the switches closed
during the switch assignment process with appropri-
ate visual and audible warning notices. You should
therefore re-open the switch you have just assigned:
