Sound output:
Via the integral loudspeaker or the optional earphone
(# 8 5071), for audible feedback "right in your ear"!
Vario sound output can be switched ON and OFF:
Either using the SET button on the Telemetry-Display or
directly at the transmitter.
The Telemetry-Display can generate visual and audible
warnings when individually set thresholds are reached.
Update-capable, future-proof:
Using the "MULTIPLEX Launcher" PC program. This PC
program is available as a free download from www.multiplex-
rc.de. The following items are required for updating: USB
PC-lead, UNI (# 8 5149) in conjunction with the sensor Y-
lead (three UNI connectors). This powers the Telemetry-
Display during the update process, and is also available
under (# 8 5090).

Prior considerations
The Telemetry-Display is designed to be mounted in a
vacant switch well or on the transmitter's carry handle,
according to transmitter type.
These installation options are described in the following
chapters:
- "Mounting in a vacant switch well":
using the mc-24 transmitter as an example.
- "Mounting on the handle" of a Graupner/JR transmitter:
using the mx-24s transmitter as an example.
- "Mounting on the handle" of a MULTIPLEX transmitter:
using the ROYALpro M-LINK transmitter as an example.
If you intend to mount the Telemetry-Display on a dif-
ferent transmitter type, you can still follow the general
procedures as described in these instructions.
Right at the outset you need to consider the optimum position of
the Telemetry-Display to suit your purpose. The following points
should be considered in particular:
You must ensure that there is "unobstructed line of sight"
between the 2.4 GHz aerial and the model at all times.
The Telemetry-Display must not obstruct the 2.4 GHz
aerial on the transmitter under any circumstances!
It must be possible to rotate and angle the 2.4 GHz aerial to
produce an optimum signal radiation pattern even when the
Telemetry-Display is in place.

Once installed, the Telemetry-Display must not restrict ac-
cess to switches, sliders, rotary knobs ..., nor the legibility of
the transmitter meter or screen.
The UNI connecting lead has to be plugged into the RF mo-
dule or the transmitter's main circuit board, depending on the
transmitter type. Note that the extension lead supplied in the
set can be used if necessary.
If the optional earphone (# 8 5071) is to be used, you should
also consider at this point how best to route the lead from the
Telemetry-Display to your ear.
7.1.1.
Mounting the Telemetry-Display in a vacant
switch well
One option is to install the Telemetry-Display in any vacant
switch well on the left or right-hand side of the transmitter.
This method of mounting is recommended for the following
transmitter types and 2.4 GHz M-LINK RF modules:
Graupner mc-18, mc-20 and mc-24
with the HFMG1 M-LINK 2.4 GHz RF module.
Graupner mc-19, mc-19s, mc-22 and mc-22s
with the HFMG2 M-LINK 2.4 GHz RF module.
MULTIPLEX PROFImc 3010, PROFImc 3030
and PROFImc 4000
with the HFM3 M-LINK 2.4 GHz RF module.
a) This is the procedure with the listed
Graupner transmitters
! Note: if you are uncertain about any point, please refer to the
operating instructions supplied with your transmitter.
Switch the transmitter OFF.
Carefully open the transmitter case and remove the back
panel.
Disconnect the transmitter battery (short-circuit hazard).
Remove the blind grommet from the well in which you intend
to install the gooseneck.
Slip the heat-shrink sleeve (supplied in the set) over the
three connecting wires attached to the Telemetry-Display.
Note that the gold-plated contacts must not be covered by
the heat-shrink sleeve.
Carefully blow hot air over the heat-shrink sleeve to shrink it.
If necessary, open up the hole in the switch well to a
diameter of about 6.5 mm, using a round file or drill bit:
The hole is large enough when the threaded part of the
gooseneck fits through it.
! Note: keep any metal swarf and / or plastic waste well
away from the electronics and mechanical parts. Please take
as much care as possible to remove all waste material.
Locate the three wires attached to the Telemetry-Display and
pass them through the prepared hole from the outside:
