6. Navigating¶
The transmitter menus can be navigated by pressing the corresponding image on the screen or via the physical buttons UP, D(ow)N, L(eft), R(ight), ENT(er), EX(i)T. All buttons and switches have been marked with the same descriptions as used in this manual.
There are several GUI elements that are used to configure settings on the transmitter
Buttons: Buttons can be selected to either toggle a setting or to enter a new menu.
Spin-Boxes: Spin-boxes are used to select one of multiple values.
There are two types of spin-boxes available:
- Spin-boxes consisting of both arrows and a 3d button may act both as spin-boxes (for selecting a value) and as a button (which can have various effects).
- Spin-boxes that contain only arrows and a white label do not act as buttons, and are only used for value selection.
Note that a spin-box may change between being selectable or not for different values of the spin-box.
Text Boxes: Text boxes generally provide information, however in some cases they can be pressed to perform an action (like a button)
Icons: Icons can either provide information or be pressed to perform an action (like a button)
6.1. Navigating with the physical buttons¶
- On all menu pages, ‘UP’ and ‘DN’ are used to navigate to the previous/next item.
- The ‘R+’ and ‘L-’ buttons are used on spin-box widgets to increase or decrease the selected value. In some cases holding down the button will use larger step values to move more quickly to the desired value.
- For buttons and rounded-spin-boxes, pressing ‘ENT’ will press the button,
- Pressing ‘EXT’ will remove selection form the current item. A long-press of ‘EXT’ will exit one (1) menu level.
6.2. Menu Layout¶
There are 2 different unconnected menus available:
- The transmitter menu allows you to select transmitter-specific options as well as monitor channel output & stick input, and monitor telemetry (if available). Details of the menu are located in section Transmitter Menu.
- The model menu is the area within deviation that you can configure the type of aircraft you are flying. All model data is managed and saved within this menu selection. Details of the menu are located in section Model menu.
