Here is an example setup connected via SBUS or PPM where tilt roll and pan will end up on Channels 8, 9, 10 at the receiver.
You must enable the trainer input from your Models setup page. This will be able to see the TRx inputs in the next steps. Use Master/Jack if connected via PPM port. Use Master/Serial if connected via SBUS.
Set the Head Tracker GUI to output Tilt, Roll and Pan on Channels 1 2 and 3 using the drop down boxes.
Remember to save the settings before unplugging your board.
Don't use the Special function Trainer in this case. This special case is meant for actual training where you allow all the sticks to be controlled by the student. This page should not show any trainer options.
When EdgeTx has it's trainer feature enabled and it's receiving a signal it stores the values in variables TRx. Since we setup the HT above to output on 1,2,3. The corresponding channels will be TR1, TR2, TR3.
Why do this in mixes, rather than inputs?
For simplicity. As a head tracker it's unlikely your going to need to mix in two input sources. Just skip the extra step.
Now we select the channels where you'd like to connect your servos on your models receiver. For instance, I have connected the following servos in the receiver.
Tilt: Channel 8
Roll: Channel 9
Pan: Channel 10
This is important. There is always the possibility of failure with any device including this Head Tracker. Always setup your radio with a failsafe switch. If you loose signal flip your failsafe switch and the camera will return to center.
Under the mix set the switch option and direction. In the above example Channels 8,9,10 will only send the data from the Head Tracker's trainer output if switch SB is in the UP positi
