Hi all
can anyone tell me how to connect my graupner sound switch to my futaba f14, i only want to connect to the seven switch options on the graupner which i believe are negative switches. Unfortunately i can no longer use the proportional channels on the sound switch due to an overload and a bit of smoke and at the moment i have 8 spare switched channels on my f14
-
i have three of the graupner smx switcher units , and can confirm that they are switched negatives ,
-
Thanks for that
my main question is what sort of lead or relay do you use to connect from the multiprop decoder to the input clamp on the soundswitch. I am guessing that you use a futaba lead and just connect the ground or am i wrong. dont want another smoke unit {-)
-
sorry ken i dont know , the units i have are connected so the -ve runs from a battery to the switcher the switcher then provides all of my components to be turned on / off , the +ve from the battery completes the circuit , the unit itself is pluged into the rx in the same manner a servo would .

Thanks for your help hopefully i will get there in the end

Why not give Ripmax a ring. As importers of robbe sets they should be able to help. John.
