EN
Hook Up Information
Insert the X-BUS extension into the Altitude Sensor and X-BUS
port of the TM1000 Telemetry Module. The sensor has two ports
for the X-BUS extension to attach. Either plug can be used on the
sensor, when using multiple sensing units daisy chaining will be
required. The Altitude sensor can be installed anywhere inside
the aircraft for altitude to display on the telemetry screen.
Note: Please make sure your DX8 AirWare ™ software
is updated to at least V2.0.
Mount the TM1000 module near the receiver in a position that
allows the 2.5-inch data lead to extend from the receiver’s Data port
to the Data port on the telemetry module. You can use servo tape
to secure the TM1000 module or wrap it in foam with the receiver.
Plug the Data lead into the TM1000 port marked DATA and plug
the other end of the lead into the receiver’s DATA port.
NOTICE: Route and secure the antenna away from any
metallic or conductive materials to give the best range.
Binding the Telemetry
Module and Receiver
1. Using the Bind Stylus press and hold the bind button
on the side of the TM1000 telemetry module.
2. While depressing the bind button, power the receiver.
The main receiver, all attached remote receivers and the
TM1000 telemetry module should blink indicating the
system is in bind mode.
3. With the stick and switches in the desired failsafe
positions (normally low throttle and neutral sticks),
put the transmitter into bind mode.
4. The main screen displays the receiver type. After
several seconds, the system connects and reverts to
the main screen.
5. From the main screen rotate the roller to access the
telemetry screens and verify the flight log data and
altitude and speed readings.
Installation
The optional Altitude Sensor is designed to easily install in any
aircraft application. The accuracy of the Altitude Sensor depends
on sampling still ambient air pressure. This measurement
determines the height of the aircraft vertically. It is important
the static pressure sampling is not disturbed.
Note: Installing Altitude Sensor into aircraft cowlings,
ram air intake for cooling, or in aircraft that travel at high
speeds may give erroneous reading because of
pressure differential.
