14MZ Radio System FAQ
The 9Z has a default "ALT" switch that can be set to any channel. This allows you to flip your trainer switch and have the mix stay active until it is flipped once more to shut it off. While the 14MZ has this prebuilt into some functions, it is not an option in the Switch set up menu. Is there some way to assign this for my smoke function?
While this is not an option at the moment in the Switch menu, if you want to use this for a simple function such as smoke, then you can utilize another function such as Airbrake if you are not using this.
What we did was this. We hooked our smoke pump up to channel 8, then we activated Airbrake, but put all percentages to 0 (zero) except for Flap2 which we set to 100%. On page 2, we set this to Active and on our radio set this function to Switch H (the trainer switch), at the On Position page, we selected ALT in place of Normal, and it worked fine for us.
