PROGRAMMABLE MIXING (1-6)
The XP6102 offers four programmable
mixes to be used for any number of
different purposes. This function allows
mixing any one channel to any other
channel. This mix can remain on at all
times or be switched on and off in flight
using a number of different switches.
Mix numbers 1-3 are of the standard
variety, in that the digital trim for the
master channel only affect the master
channel, and not the slave channel. Mix
number 4 is of the "Trim Include" variety.
This mix is used any time the mix requires
the slave channels trim position to be
varied when the master channels digital
trim position is varied. An example for this
type of mix would be when dual elevator
or dual aileron servos are used and
connected to two separate channels of the
system, rather than using a single channel
with a Y-harness.
Each channel of this radio is identified by
an abbreviated name. The chart below
indicates the channel and its
corresponding abbreviation. The channel
name appearing first is known as the
"master channel" or the channel to which
you want to mix. The second number is
known as the "slave channel" or the
channel that is being mixed into the
master channel. For example, AIL ➔ RUD
would indicate aileron-to-rudder mixing.
Each time the aileron stick is moved, the
aileron will deflect, and the rudder will
automatically move in the direction and
to the value input.
Mixing is proportional, so small inputs of
the master channel will produce small
outputs of the slave channel. Each
programmable mix has a mixing "offset."
The purpose of the mixing offset is to re-
define the neutral position of the slave
channel.
