Locate the cable input port on the rear of the InterLink Elite Controller. Plug one end
of the included connector cable into this port. Next, plug the other end of the adapter
cable into the buddy box port (a.k.a. trainer jack) of your transmitter. The procedure
for doing so depends on your transmitter:
• If your transmitter’s buddy box port directly accepts the 1/8” stereo plug, insert
this end directly into the radio. This works for most JR® and Spektrum® radios.
• If your transmitter’s buddy box port requires the micro (square) connector, use the
square adapter cord included with the simulator.
Setup-
After you have connected your transmitter to the InterLink Elite controller, you will
need to perform a brief setup procedure before utilizing it with the simulation.
1. First, make sure that the transmitter is in FM or PPM mode rather than PCM
mode. Refer to the manual for your transmitter if you are unsure how to do
this.
2. If the transmitter did not power up when the interface cord was plugged into
it, turn the power switch on at this time.
3. Next, click the Controller menu and then highlight the Select Controller…
menu item. After a brief delay an option for the InterLink Elite Transmitter x
channel should appear. Choose the InterLink Elite Transmitter X Channel
option.
