Two leds one red and one green are used to signal some conditions and to drive the user in the programming procedure At the start up power on there are three possible conditions 7 Programming procedure Condition LED indication 1 Memory error empty or corrupted or invalid parameter stored Red led flashing at high rate 2 Start of programming procedure 3 Normal function Six red led blinks see the detailed description of the program sequence Red led flashing to display the ID code of the switch three times 2 sec solid green and then green led flashing every 2 sec Mode set up table During the normal function the green led blinks at every 2 and turns on during output activation either by command by internal timeout or local switch 6 Power On mode programming If the system is powered on normally and the memory contains valid data the system starts in normal function mode as described in the Mode set up table At the first activation or if the memory is blank or if data are not valid the system starts in error state the red led is flashing at high rate and the only way to restore the normal condition is to restart the system in programming mode Each time the system is powered with the pushbutton pressed the programming procedure starts Note the program procedure will not start automatically when an error is detected in the data mem
3. you want to program the camera switch connected on a Tx switch two position operating on ch 5 taking picture when you move the switch up your camera will not automatically switch off and you don t need the auto on function You RC Switch You RC Switch Operation Display Effect Operation Display Effect Connect the switch on the aileron slot of the receiver press the push button and switch on the system first Tx and then Rx Programming procedure starts Move the stick in Six red neutral position blinks Red Led The current on stick position is stored neutral Connect the switch onch 5 on the receiver press the push button and switch on the system first Tx and then Rx Move the TX Six red switch to down blinks neutral position Programming procedure starts Red Led The switch on position is stored neutral Move the aileron Four stick full right and green hold blinks Green Position stored Led On active Move the switch to Four up position green blinks Release stick Red Led Waiting for on time out enable Start counting 28 Green Counting the sec with a clock or Led time by counting the led flashing flashes one every at 0 5 0 5 seconds Green Position stored Led on active Press the push Red Led time out button while led is on disable on red Green Data saved in Led on memory Led off Procedure end
4. Please check on www rc flysoft com the updated table with all current valid ID codes and related camera compatibility The switch can be programmed by the user to adapt to different RC systems and configurations It is possible to define the neutral and the active position of RC command directly on the RC Switch without modify the setup of your Tx RC Switch can be controlled by a switch by a pushbutton by a stick or by a slide on the Tx and the user can easily select the most convenient position to take photo switch or stick full up full down centered An additional feature called auto on function is also provided some cameras have an auto shut off function that preserves the battery life switching off the camera after a time from 30 to 90 with no operation i e if no pictures are taken To avoid that the camera will switch off during remote operation it is possible to program the RC Switch to take a picture after a programmable delay from the last command auto on function In this way you can concentrate yourself in piloting your model without the risk of having the camera switched off This function can be disabled if it is not required and when it is enabled the time out interval can be programmed from few seconds up to 10 minutes to adapt to different cameras RC Switch I R instruction manual www rc flysoft com Page 1 4 presini E Mate User manual v 2 0 05 2005 5 State LED indication
5. RC Switch I R instruction manual www rc flysoft com Page 2 4 ms ii Mate User manual v 2 0 05 2005 Auto on function programming function enable disable and timeout interval set up This sequence starts immediately after the end of the previous one with the red led switched on for 5 seconds 1 Sec 2 Sec n 1 2 1 Pressing the pushbutton while the red led is on disables the auto on function and terminates the program sequence 2 Otherwise the auto on function is enabled the time count starts the green led blinks at each 0 5 and ends when the pushbutton is pressed In both cases at the end the green led turns on for 2 to indicate that data are saved in memory and then switches off The programming procedure is terminated and the RC Switch must be powered off and on again for the new set up to take effect In the next page you can found two step by step programming examples with and without auto on function enabled RC Switch I R instruction manual www rc flysoft com Page 3 4 1e iE Mate User manual v 2 0 05 2005 8 Programming examples Case 1 you want to program the camera switch on the aileron channel taking picture when you move the stick from the central position to full right your camera will switch off after a 30 time interval with no operation and you decide to program the auto on function to take a picture every 28 in automatic mode to keep camera on Case 2
6. ory the user must power on the system with the pushbutton pressed To start the programming sequence power on the system with the pushbutton pressed lt is now possible to program the command position and the auto on function Command position set up 0 0 00 0 My ooo meee move to 7 Store OFF move to gt Store ON OFF value AN value ON value value 1 2 3 4 1 At power on in program mode you have six blinks of the red led to set the command in the neutral position the position in which the switch is not active 2 When the led stops blinking the current position is stored in microcontroller memory and the red led stays on for 2 seconds when the green led starts flashing it is possible to release the command 3 During the four green blinks set the command in the active position the position you prefer to take a picture 4 __ and wait for the green led on at the end of the data store when the red led turns on it is possible to release the command If the red led is blinking at high speed the programming sequence has been aborted for an error please verify that the off and the on commands are not stored at the same value or at two values very close and repeat the sequence by disconnecting and applying power again It is recommended to use at least half 50 of the command travel i e 0 to 50 or 50 to 100 and to not modify trim set up on the selected channel after system programming
7. pesin ii Mate User manual v 2 0 05 2005 RC Switch the complete solution for digital camera control 1 Overview 3 Connections RC Switch board has a cable with a standard connector that can be fitted in a free channel of the receiver if the RC Switch is to be connected in parallel with an existing function a Y harness adaptor is required A pushbutton on the switch is used to enter the programming function and for local activation of the switch and two state leds display the state of the RC Switch in different conditions 4 Programmable functions RC Switch I R is an electronic switch for digital camera equipped with a I R remote control that can be controlled by a channel of your RC Receiver system It can be connected on a dedicated channel or it can be used in parallel with an existing function Using the infra red link already present on many camera it is possible to control the camera without external interfaces cables and wit no need to open the camera and doing some modifications 2 Switch version identification All RC Switch I R versions available for different camera are based on the same electronic circuit board and there is no way to identify different versions by looking at the switch itself To identify the different versions of the product each switch displays at power on a ID code with a number of short blinks of the red state led and repeats this indication for three times
