Futaba 9CPS - Manual (Page 39)

Auxiliary channel function (including channel 9 controls) (AUX-CH): defines the relationship between the transmitter
controls and the receiver output for channels 5-9. Also, the CH9 SERVO REVERSE is used to change the CH9 servo direction.
Note that the CH9 functions are only visible in the AUX-CH screen when PCM modulation is selected. The 9th channel is
not supported in FM modulation.
Adjustability:
•
channels 5-8 may be assigned to any S WITCH (A-H), slider [VR(D) and VR(E)], or
knob [VR(A-C)] (for example, moving flaps to a switch or slider), but not the

channel 9 may be assigned to any S WITCH (A-H) and the servo direction may be

primary control sticks (use programmable mixes to do so, p. 59);
•
multiple channels may be assigned to the same switch, slider or knob;
•
•
channels set to "NULL" are only controlled by mixes. (Ex: utilizing 2 channels for 2
rudder servos. See mixes, p. 59.)
Remember that if you assign primary control of a channel to a switch which you later use for other functions (like
dual/triple rates or airbrakes), every time you use that other function you will also be moving the auxiliary channel.

Assign flaps to the right slider [VR(E)]
and set channel 7 to NULL in preparation
to use it as a smoke system control (the
smoke system being activated later by a
throttle-to-ch.-7 mix).
Where next?
Open BASIC menu, then
open AUX-CH function.
Choose the channel to change. (ex: ch. 6.)
Change primary control. (ex: to slider.)
Repeat as needed. (ex: ch. 7 to NULL.)
Close.

Programmable mixes: see p. 54.
Set up dual/triple rates and exponential (D/R,EXP): see p. 35.

Adjust END POINTs (sets end points of travel even when using a switch): see p. 32.
If GYRO SENSE, GOVERNOR, and THR-NEEDLE functions are activated, AUX-CH
settings of related channels become invalid automatically.
Related channels:
GYRO SENSE (ACRO): ch. 5, 7, or 8: see p. 65.
GYRO SENSE (HELI): ch. 5: see p. 96.
GOVERNOR (HELI): ch. 7, or ch. 7 and 8: see p. 97.
THR-NEEDLE (ACRO/HELI): ch. 8: see p. 58.
