Note:
Do not, however, set a switching point at a transmitter
control’s travel end-point, since this makes reliable
switching impossible.
C1 used in the example here should be “closed”
in the “full throttle” direction and “open” below the
switching point.
Now switch to the menu …
»Timers (general)« (page 162)
… and select the line “Top” with the selection keys.
This is the standard line assigned to the stopwatch.
In this line, move the marker frame over the “Timer”
column to the right, to the column above the switch
symbol, using the appropriate selection key of the left
or right four-way button. Now tap twice on the center
SET key of the right touch: The first tap will activate
the “Switch assignment”, the second tap will call up
the list of “expanded switches”:

The stopwatch in the basic display now starts with
movement of the proportional rotary control toward
full throttle and stops if it is turned back again over
the switch-point.
Examples 2 and 3 of the preceding pages
If you control your motor with a switch, on the other
hand, you do not need the control switch described
above. It is completely sufficient if you assign the
same switch to the timer, so that it also begins to run
when you switch on the motor.
Tip:
If the motor run time for an E-model is limited by the
battery capacity, you can have the stopwatch count
down. Enter the maximum permissible motor run time
in the “Timer” column, e. g. “5 min”, and shortly before
expiration of permissible time, e. g. “30 s” before, have
the transmitter issue an acoustic warning signal:
