Program description - Base setup models | Helicopter models
BUT CAUTION: If you wish to operate two servos
with one control function, for example such as trans-
mitter control function 2 (roll) which is divided up into
control channels 1 & 2 for left and right roll servos
for the “3Sv(2Roll)” option in the »Helicopter type«
menu; then “map” the corresponding transmitter out-
puts, in this case for channels 1 & 2 (= inputs to the
receiver) accordingly.
Notes:
The maximum number of lines (outputs) available
corresponds to the maximum number of servos
which can be connected to the receiver in ques-
tion.
If you see the warning …
CAN‘T

DATA
OK
… then there is no bound receiver within range. If
the case may be, switch your receiving system on.
With the »Tx. output swap« option, which is avail-
able as standard on the
mc-20 transmitter, and
can be unlocked on the mc-16 HoTT transmitter
at extra cost, see page 230, the transmitter’s con-
trol functions can be interchanged in any way; it is
also possible to assign multiple outputs to one and
the same control function. In the interests of clarity
however we strongly advise that you use only one
of these two options.
Channel assignment on second receiver
As already mentioned, the “Receiver channel map-
ping” menu point can be used to map (re-distribute)
the transmitter’s control channels in any way amongst
a maximum of two receivers; these are the eight
standard / twelve optional control channels of the
mc-16 HoTT transmitter, and the standard twelve
channels of the mc-20 HoTT transmitter. In this
case the numbering of the outputs (servo sockets)
and the maximum number of lines (outputs) available
reflects the maximum number of servos which can be
connected to the receiver in question.

Note:
The upper screen-shot above shows the screen of
the standard mc-16 HoTT eight-channel transmit-
ter; the lower one the screen of the mc-20 HoTT
twelve-channel transmitter.
After selection of the desired output with the selection
keys of the left or right four-way button, the respec-
tive input field will be framed. Tap the center SET key
of the right four-way button. The current setting will
be displayed in inverse video. Now select the desired
input channel with the selection keys of the right four-
way button. For example, appropriate for the above
example with roll servos:

mc-20 HoTT transmitters feature a menu point in
which the transmitter’s control channels can be re-
distributed in any way you like within one receiver,
and also include an option to distribute the transmit-
ter’s control channels to a maximum of two receivers
in any arrangement you desire. These are the eight
standard / twelve optional control channels of the
mc-16 HoTT transmitter, and the standard twelve
control channels of the mc-20 HoTT. This re-
distribution is termed “mapping or “channel mapping
(channel assignment) in the following section.
Select the receiver to be “mapped” with the selection
keys of the left or right four-way button then tap briefly
on the center SET key of the right four-way button.
Channel mapping within a receiver
This menu point provides a simple means of re-
mapping the transmitter’s control channels in any
way you like, in a similar manner to the channel as-
signment function termed “Channel mapping” in the
»Tele metry« menu, as described on page 244. This
means that you can re-distribute the transmitter’s
control channels, which are present at the receiver
inputs, to the selected receiver’s outputs / servo sock-
ets in any way you like:

After selection of the desired output with the selection
keys of the left or right four-way button, the appropri-
ate value field will be framed. Briefly tap on the center
SET key of the right four-way button. The current
setting will be displayed in inverse video. Now use the
selection keys of the right four-way button to select
the desired input channel’s respective transmitter
output, see page 230.
