“Name” fi eld for that fl ight phase is already framed.
If the default name does not seem appropriate, touch
the central
SET button of the right-hand touch-key, and
the current setting is shown highlighted. Now use the
arrow buttons of the right-hand touch-key to select an
appropriate name from those available. Touch the
SET
button to conclude the input process.
Now press the f button of the left or right-hand touch-
key to move to the right-hand column at the bottom of
the screen, indicated by the switch symbol
, and
briefl y touch the central
SET button. You can now assign
a switch to the phase as described on page 39. We
recommend one of the two three-position switches SW
4/5 or SW 6/7, in each case starting from the centre
toggle position.
For more information on fl ight phase programming
please refer to page 94, in the section entitled “Flight
phase specifi c settings for collective pitch, throttle and
tail rotor”.

The name “Auto-rotation” is permanently assigned to
Phase 4, and CANNOT be altered. The only available
option is to assign a switch to it using the switch symbol
at the right of the screen.
For more information on programming fl ight phases
please refer to the “Helicopter mixers” section starting
servo(s) to the selected output using the right-hand
arrow buttons, and confi rm your choice with
SET … or
alternatively touch the cd or ef buttons of the right-
hand touch-key (CLEAR) simultaneously to revert to the
default sequence.
Please note that any subsequent changes to servo
settings, such as servo travel, Dual Rate / Expo, mixers
etc., must be carried out according to the original
(default) receiver socket sequence.
Typical application:
In the helicopter program of the mx-16 HoTT the
outputs for one collective pitch servo and the throttle
servo have been interchanged compared to all earlier
GRAUPNER/JR mc-systems. The throttle servo is now
assigned to receiver output “6” and the collective pitch
servo to output “1”. However, you may wish to retain the
earlier confi guration.

Note:
It is also possible to distribute the control functions
amongst as many receivers as you wish, using the
channel-mapping function in the mx-16 HoTT’s
integral Telemetry menu, or even to assign the same
control function to multiple receiver outputs. However,
we strongly recommend that you use only one of the two
options, as a combination will soon lead to confusion.
on page 94.
Receiver output
For maximum fl exibility in terms of receiver socket
assignment, the mx-16 HoTT software provides the
means to swap over the servo outputs 1 to max. 8;
this is carried out on the second page of the “Receiver
output” sub-menu.

receiv out
Touch the central SET button of the right-hand touch-key
to move to the next page of the display. Here you can
assign the “control channels” for servos 1 … 8 to any
receiver output you wish to use. However, please note
that the display in “Servo display” - which you can ac-
cess from virtually any menu position by simultaneously
touching the e and f buttons of the left-hand touch-
key - refers exclusively to the “control channels”, i. e. the
outputs are NOT swapped over.
