Default Setting up DX6 Transmitter to control smoke flow on Sullivan Smoke Sys

Just needing to know procedure to set up flow rate on DX6 transmitter. Want smoke pump to vary flow according to engine RPMs. Less waste of fluid this way. Ive seen it done, but need a step by step procedure in setting up transmitter. Have already set up on off/on switch on trans, just need to control flow. Thanks

PROG.MIX4
THRO to GEAR
RATE: - 50%
0%
SW:GEAR(or any switch)
OFFSET -75%

Make adjustments to the rate and offset to control the flow.

Im goin to try that shortly. So my master on off switch will still shut it off and on but when I go above 50% on throttle, the flow will start at whatever the offset rate is, correct?

The example will require the pump to be plugged into the gear channel of the rx, Whatever switch you want to use to turn the mix on/off needs to be set in the mix program
