Whenever you set up a flight condition, you go to the condition select screen. Create (add) the condition from scratch or by copying an existing condition (better choice) and name your new condition. When you highlight your new condition, you’ll see a null button. Press on that and you’ll go to a screen where you pick the switch, stick, knob, or slider you want to use to activate the condition. After you pick the switch, click on the “on-position” button which takes you to another screen to set what position the switch needs to be in to activate the condition. With a 3-position switch, you can make one switch position activate Condition #4 and the other switch position would activate Condition #5 if you choose. The third switch position shuts both conditions off. I hope I’ve explained this in a way you can understand. If we did this in person on the actual radio, it would be a lot easier to just show you. You’ll also want to pay attention to the Condition Priority settings because that determines which condition will prevail if you have the switches turned on for two different conditions. </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>When I first got going with my 14 MZ, I just created a model and kept going back and forth between the manual (which isn’t the greatest) and the radio and kept trying stuff until I understood it. One thing I quickly learned is to just focus on the stuff I actually want. There are simply way too many features to remember them all. I’ve had mine since they first came out and there’s still stuff I don’t know how to set up but I don’t care because those are features I don’t want or need. If you’re still having trouble, send me a private e-mail and we can arrange to go over it by phone and I’ll talk you through it as I do it myself on my radio while you’re doing the same thing on yours. I plan on sending my radio in for some routine maintenance in January so don’t wait too long!</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Hope this helps!</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Verne Koester</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in;border-color:-moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> <a href="mailto:nsrca-discussion-bounces@lists.nsrca.org">nsrca-discussion-bounces@lists.nsrca.org</a> [<a href="mailto:nsrca-discussion-bounces@lists.nsrca.org">mailto:nsrca-discussion-bounces@lists.nsrca.org</a>] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Dwayne Brown<br><b>Sent:</b> Thursday, December 23, 2010 3:02 PM<br><b>To:</b> 'General pattern discussion'<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [NSRCA-discussion] Which transmitter?</span><o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:navy'>Verne, please give me a better understanding of setting switches for flight conditions.
