WARNING & ERROR DISPLAYS
An alarm or error indication may appear on the display of your transmitter for several reasons, including when the trans-
mitter power switch is turned on, when the battery voltage is low, and several others. Each display has a unique sound
associated with it, as described below.
MODEL SELECTION ERROR: Warning sound: 5 beeps (repeated 3 times)
The MODEL SELECTION warning is displayed when the transmitter attempts to load a model memory from a memory
module (optional CAMPac) that is not currently plugged into the transmitter. When this occurs, model No. 01 is automati-
cally loaded.
Do not fly until the proper model is loaded into memory! Reinsert the memory module, and
recall the desired setup using the model select function.
LOW BATTERY ERROR: Warning sound: Continuous beep until transmitter is powered off.
The LOW BATTERY warning is displayed when the transmitter battery voltage drops below 8.5V.
Land your model as soon as possible before loss of control due to a dead battery.
MIXER ALERT WARNING: Warning sound: 5 Beeps (repeated until problem resolved or overridden)
The MIXER ALERT warning is displayed to alert you whenever you turn on the transmitter with any
of the mixing switches active. This warning will disappear when the offending switch or control is
deactivated. Switches for which warnings will be issued at power-up are listed below:
ACRO:Throttle cut, idle-down, snap roll, airbrake GLID:Butterfly, Start and Speed mixing HELI:Throttle cut, throttle hold, idle-up
If turning a switch OFF does not stop the mixing warning: When the warning does not stop even when the mixing switch
indicated by the warning display on the screen is turned off, the functions described previously probably use the same
switch and the OFF direction setting is reversed. In short, one of the mixings described above is not in the OFF state. In this
case, reset the warning display by pressing both S
ELECT
B
UTTONS
simultaneously. Then change one of the switch settings
of the mixings duplicated at one switch.
BACKUP ERROR: Warning sound: 4 beeps (repeated continuously)
The BACKUP ERROR warning occurs when the transmitter memory is lost for any reason. If this occurs, all of the data will
be reset when the power is turned on again.
[Note] At this warning display, the transmitter transmits in PPM mode even if the set-up mode is PCM mode.
Do not fly when this message is displayed — all programming has been erased and is not avail-
able. Return your transmitter to Futaba for service.
MEMORY MODULE INITIALIZE DISPLAY
This warning appears when an (optional) CAMPac memory module is used in the transmitter for the first time. When the
M
ODE B UTTON is pressed, initialization of the module begins, after which the memory module can be used. Once the
module is initialized, the display will not appear again.
The 9C super CANNOT convert data from other radio types (ie. 8U, 9Z). Installation of a CAMPac with data from
another radio type will result in reinitialization of the CAMPac and loss of all data.
RF MODULE WARNING: Warning sound: A single long beep. The single beep lets you know that the RF module has been
removed from the transmitter, or is not being read properly. The green RF light also goes out.
