16.2.2. Free assignment with model helicopters
If you have set up a model helicopter based on one of
the model templates HELImech or HELIccpm, various
transmitter controls can be selected for the free or vari-
able channels. You can find out which channels are free
or variable by consulting the descriptions of the heli-
copter model templates (Î 20. onward):

16.2.3. Special features when assigning
The transmission mode PPM 6 or PPM 7 is set automati-
cally:
Last servo on channel 6  PPM 6
Last servo on channel 7  PPM 7
Problems may occur with PPM 6 and certain older types
of speed controller, in which case it may help to assign
any function to channel 7. This forces PPM 7 operation;
you do not need to connect a servo to the output.
16.3. Sub-menu: Monitor
The Servo Monitor is a substitute for a receiving system
and servos, enabling you to check the function and op-
eration of servos, speed controllers and - especially -
gyro systems (for which an external effect is not easy to
detect), and seek and eliminate faults.
Call up the menu, then press the ENTER button or a 3D
digi-adjustor; the Servo Monitor then appears.
Two display variants are available:
x graphic, with bar-form display of output signals
(Fig. 1), and
x numerical, with display of % values (Fig. 2).
You can switch between the two displays using the UP /
DOWN buttons ( / ) or one of the two 3D digi-
adjustors.
Press the ENTER button or one of the 3D digi-adjustors
to close the Servo Monitor.
16.4. Sub-menu: Test run
Automatic servo run, designed for test and demonstra-
tion purposes or as an “electronic aid” for range-
checking.
As soon as you select a transmitter control, the transmit-
ter generates a constant control signal with variable
transit time, i.e. from one end-point of the control to the
other. All servos which are operated by this transmitter
control, either directly or via a mixer, start running.
You can interrupt the test run by either of two methods:
x Press the REV/CLR button  “ Control
“ appears
x Select no transmitter control (“ - - - - - - - “)
The transit time can be set to any value in the range 0.1
– 4.0 seconds.
17.Main Menu Timer A
The ROYALevo7 features a stopwatch with alarm func-
tion which can be used for various timing tasks. The
stopwatch counts up to 4½ hours with a resolution of
one second.
Line 1:
Time
This is the time which has elapsed since the timer
started. If you select this field, you can erase the time
using the REV/CLR button.
The stopwatch can also be reset by pressing the
REV/CLR button when you are in one of the status dis-
plays 1 - 3.
Line 2:
Alarm
This is where you set the alarm time. For example, if the
motor run of an electric-powered model is four minutes,
you should set
0:04:00 at this point. The timer adds
together the motor run time based on the throttle set-
ting, and emits a warning sound once the set alarm time
has elapsed.
The method of entering the alarm time differs from the
usual procedure: here the value is entered digit by digit:
press the ENTER button or one of the 3D digi-adjustors.
The cursor jumps to the hours, which can then be set
using the UP / DOWN buttons or one of the 3D digi-
adjustors. Every time you press ENTER again, the cursor
moves one place to the right etc.
