18MZ Sequence Programming
 

Guys,

It has been over 12 months since I last did anything 'fancy' on my TX and I'm having a blank with something.

Can someone remind me the steps I need to follow to sequence a servo operated nose door with the main gear?

I need it do operate thus when the gear down position is selected:

door open > gear down > door stays open

and thus when the gear up position is selected:

gear up > door closed

Hope someone can help before I give in to weakness and pointlessly drop in the jetronic sequencer I am staring at :D

Cheers,
Mark

Mark,

Offset Mixing is what you need. I obviously haven't got my 18mz in front of me so I will try to explain from memory.

Goto program mixes, by default its a normal type mix so you need to click the yellow button to change it to offset mixing.
Go into the mix and then you an assign the mix on/off to be the retract switch.
In the offset mixing you can change the off/on position for any channel, the delay moving to each point and the speed.

I have complex sequencing on F104, all done by this method and can send you the program if necessary.

Hi Geoff,

Thanks for that!!! Yes, all comes flooding back now LOL I'll have a play with it tonight and hopefully get it sorted!!!

Hi Mark,

unfortunately I did not find a manual for the TX. So I have to explain it. German would be easy but I try it in English:

- Fact it is absolutely simple
- FIRST - remove in the function menu the switches from both channels (gear and door)
- go to the program mixer menu
- select an off-set mixer
- define a switch for mixer-operation
- select for function 1 = gear
- select for function 2 = door
- find the right %value for the movements. If you operate with valve it is for both functions +/- 100%. If you use servos you have to adjust it
- in the area where you can select the time you have to test in which line you have to write a delay time. Fact is: always 1 way stays to 0

Normally it should work now......

Best regards

Philip
