When the transmitter is initially turned on, the model type, model
memory name
, modulation type and transmitter battery voltage are
displayed on the LCD screen. When prompted by the user, the functions
and settings stored in the memory can also be read on the screen. The
user accesses the different functions using the MODE and SELECT
keys and changes the values and settings using the DATA INPUT lever.
(This is called programming!)

Note: Feel free to explore by scrolling through the programs and viewing the displays using the MODE and SELECT keys.
The MODE and SELECT keys only determine what will be displayed on the screen and will not change any of the settings.
Only when using the DATA INPUT lever will you be able to change any of the settings.

Model name

The Futaba T6EX-2.4GHz stores model memories for six models. This means all the data (control throws, trims, end points,
etc.) for up to six different models can be stored in the transmitter and activated at any time (depending upon which model you
choose to fly that day). This eliminates the requirement for reconfiguring the transmitter each time you decide to fly a different
model with it! When the transmitter is turned on the model type, model name, modulation and the transmitter voltage will
be indicated on the LCD screen. Before every flight BE CERTAIN that the correct model name for the model you intend to fly
appears on the screen. If the transmitter is not operating the correct model, some (or all) of the controls could be reversed and
the travels and trims will be wrong.

Flying a model with the wrong program will result in a crash, so always be certain the model name in the transmitter is
correct. One way to ensure this is to write the corresponding model name directly on the airplane or helicopter, or attach a
list to the bottom or back of the transmitter.
