PROGRAMMABLE MIXING
The XP6102 offers two 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 number 1 is 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 2 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.
