Turnigy TGY i10 transmitter – FACTORY MODEbrought to you by the EVIL PUSHER

Please, take care. The FACTORY MODE is for different settings, which can cause malfunction of your transmitter or receiver. But it´s also usefull for some kind of setting or repair...

This is for the firmware version 1.07-TGY ( Not (?) for Flysky or Carson asf. ).

I made this document to give you assistance, but I do not take care for any problem this document will cause.

YOU DO ANYTHING AT YOUR OWN RISK. Please, read first this instruction before you start.

If you find any failure, you may keep it as an present.

Let`s start

To activate the FACTORY MODE, move and hold the sticks to the left, lower side, switch on your TGY-i10.

1

The display will show the main screen of the FACTORY MODE.

For selection scroll down or up like in normal user GUI (general user interface).

The menu features are:

– Sticks calibration– Keys test– LCD screen test– Battery voltage (TX Battery)– Sticks mode– Bind with a receiver– RF std.: (choosen Standard is displayed)– Transmitter test– Receiver test– Antenna test– Display RF S/N– Update receiver– Factory reset– Firmware update– Production information

Sticks calibration:

Could be an usefull setting after replacing any Stick-poti or VR. It just center the middle point and way of the Turnigy i10 sticks or VR´s. There is no option, to set a dead piont. Please, take care for the Channels offset in the normal GUI – it should be set to 0 for all channels, before you start doing this calibration.Is this function started, you can´t abort it. Just follow the next steps.

The function show´s this screen. You see red and green bars for each stick and VR.

Move all sticks and VR to the maximum points and turn back to middle.

When finshed, the screen should look like this picture.

Press the „back“-button. The settings are saved automatically.

ATTENTION:

This has effect to all saved models. Servos may have other middle point or different working-area. Also ESC´swon´t work propper....asf.

Keys test:

Just a simple test for the switches and trim´s. If you like to find out, if a single switch is defective, you may start this test again and again by using the back button. Or you test all switches in one run. However you like.

Left picture, will be shown when function is started. Start using switches and /ortrim buttons.

Right picture shows yellow buttons for used. Once the yellow button was activated, it´s not possible to switch it off.

If the last switch or trim has passed by activation, the function jump back to the main menu of the FACTORY MODE.

LCD screen test:

After starting this test, the screen will show full sized different colours. You have to touch the screen to change to the next colour. You may use this function for checking for dead pixels asf.

It start with fullscreen grey, followed by red, green, blue and at last black. The backlight is switched on all the time.

Battery voltage:

This setting is for the TX battery and will be used by further functions like battery monitoring and battery alert.

To set it up right, first you have to find out the real voltage of your battery. Therefore, please use an RMS voltmeter – not any cheap one. + /- is signed on the battery housing, so it should not need more information.

The displayed voltage can be adjusted by using the scroll bar. Turn left or right, until you have adjust the real voltage of your battery.

Make sure, the voltage is the same your TX battery hasactually.

Wrong setting may cause too late or too early warnings

Also set to the default is not to recommend.

Do this setting if you change the battery.

Keep care, using some settings, the original receivers won´t bind (see table).

AFHDS 2A – 1way works / no telemetry works / no telemetry works / no telemetry

AFHDS 2A – 2way works / no telemetry works works

Transmitter test:

Only usefull for people who have an scanner. Anyway. You will be able to adjust the frequenz 2.4000 Ghz to 2.485 Ghz (it´s FCC / ETSI standard / ISM band).

However, this function also supports different modes like carrier only / carrier + modulation / Frequency scan.

In each mode, your receivers should work, but there is no reason, why to change anything.

Receiver test:

Only usefull for people, who have an scanner. For now, I´m not sure, if the receiver test is meant for the receiver of the TX (Telemetry). Cause not having any equipment for, I can´t find out.

Antenna test:

You will need and binded receiver first. You will be able, by chossing an single antenna for TX also for RX, to check. You may mix the settings a.e. do the the test by using both antennas from the TX but only one (RX1 or RX2) of the receiver.

The display error rate show´s, if one of the choosen antenna has any trouble.
