12. SERIAL SERVO OUTPUT –
SRXL-MULTIPLEX
RX-5/7 M-LINK receivers offer the facility to use the servo out-
puts as a sum signal (serial servo output = SRXL-MULTIPLEX):
The receiver’s first twelve channels are carried by a three-core
lead (# 8 5070) via the receiver’s B/D socket.
Applications:
• Power supply / servo management systems, or
• Flybarless systems on model helicopters.
!
Note:
SRXL-MULTIPLEX is switched off by default on M-LINK recei-
vers, and can be activated using the MULTIPLEX MULTImate
or the MULTIPLEX Launcher PC program in conjunction with
the UNI USB PC lead (# 8 5149).
This is the procedure for activating serial servo output:
1. Activating using the MULTImate:
• At the menu point “4-7 B/D output“ / “4-7 Ausgabe B/D“
(= Output B/D) select the following option:
“Digit. Servodata“ / “Dig. Servodaten“
(= Digital servo data).
• Select the menu point:
“4-10 Send data“ / “4-10 Dat. senden“ (= Send data)
and hold the 3-D digi-adjuster pressed in:
Î The MULTImate screen displays:
“please wait…“ / “bitte warten…“ (= please wait).
• Release the 3-D digi-adjuster:
Î When the Send process is complete, the screen
displays “--> OK!“ (= complete!).
• Disconnect the receiver, switch off the MULTImate.
2. Activating using the MULTIPLEX Launcher:
• At “More settings Î Options“ / “Weitere Einstellungen Î
Optionen…“ (= More settings Î Options) select the
following menu point:
“Digital servodata“ / “Digitale Servodaten“
(= Digital servo data).
• Click on the “Accept“ / „Übernehmen“ button
(= Accept).
• Click on the „Send data“ / “Daten senden“ button
(= Send data).
• Click on the “Close“ / “Beenden“ button
(= Finish).
• Close MULTIPLEX Launcher, disconnect the receiver.
3. Connect the three-core lead (# 8 5070) to the receiver’s B/D
socket.
4. Connect the lead to the power supply / servo management
system, or to the flybarless system (see the operating
instructions supplied with these devices).
! Take care to connect the lead correctly, i.e. the con-
nectors must be correctly orientated, and - especially
when using non-MULTIPLEX products - the pin assign-
ment must be compatible. Be sure to check the symbols
on the M-LINK receiver, and on the non-MULTIPLEX
product if present. Refer to the operating instructions of
the non-MULTIPLEX device, and ask the manufacturer if
you are in any doubt!
13. SELECTING ONE SENSOR ADDRESS AS
“PRIORITY ADDRESS”
The telemetry-capable RX-5/7 M-LINK receivers permit the user
to define any one of the sensor addresses (0 … 15) as a “priority
address”:
This one
selected sensor value is then updated at a higher rate
than all the other sensor values.
Typical application: “Vario”:
The audio output for climb and descent, and the associated on-
screen display, are updated more frequently than the other
sensor values, and are therefore generated without delay.
!
Note:
The “Priority address” option is switched off by default on M-LINK
receivers, and can be activated using the MULTIPLEX MULTI-
mate or the MULTIPLEX Launcher PC program in conjunction
with the UNI USB PC lead (# 8 5149).
This is the procedure for activating the priority address:
1. Activating using the MULTImate:
• At the menu point “4-6 Sensor addr.“ / “4-6 Sensoradr.“
(= Sensor address) select the option:
“4-6 Prio address“ / “4-6 Prio Adresse“
(= Priority address).
• Hold the 3-D digi-adjuster pressed in:
Î The MULTImate displays: “L 0“.
• Release the 3-D digi-adjuster.
• Press the 3-D digi-adjuster briefly, and select the priority
address (0 … 15).
• Press the 3-D digi-adjuster briefly.
• Switch to the menu:
“4-6 Go back …to RX M-LINK“ /
“4-6 Zurück …zu RX M-LINK“
(= back … to RX M-LINK)
and confirm by pressing the 3-D digi-adjuster.
• Select the menu point:
“4-10 Send data“ / “4-10 Dat. senden“
(= Send data)
and hold the 3-D digi-adjuster pressed in:
Î The MULTImate displays:
“please wait…“ / “bitte warten…“ (= please wait).
• Release the 3-D digi-adjuster:
Î When the Send process is complete, the screen
displays “--> OK!“ (= complete!).
• Disconnect the receiver, switch off the MULTImate.
2. Activating using the MULTIPLEX Launcher:
• At “Sensor addresses“ / “Sensorparameter“
(= Sensor address) auswählen:
“Address w/prio 1:“ / “Adresse mit Prio 1:“
(= Address with priority 1).
• Select the “Address“ / “Adresse“ (= Address) check-box,
and enter the desired address (0 … 15).
• Click on the “Accept“ / “Übernehmen“ button
(= Accept).
• Click on the “Send data“ / “Daten senden“ button
(= Send data).
• Click on the “Close“ / “Beenden“ button
(= Finish).
• Close the MULTIPLEX Launcher, disconnect the
receiver.
