Hello

I would like to get a sound alarm when a switch is set to ON.

Did not find how to do this.

Thanks for your help,

No how, but what would be the purpose of that?

It will be when the multirotor fail safe " back to home" switch is engaged .

Because this will radically change the multirotor direction so I would like the Devo warns this.

Is it possible to do it ?

I don't have an emulator or tx handy, but I feel this should be possible in a manner.

Make a virtual channel, max/min around the switch you want

Make a timer, 1sec countdown, on when switched on, reset with switch off position.

If you set the count up alarm to 1 sec intervals you'll get a beep every second once the switch is thrown. Set to 5, every 5 seconds. It will beep continuously though.

I'll try it out later today.

Scratch that, easy to do. Assuming Mix2 as your return to home:

timer4 - countdown
switch - Mix2
reset - !Mix2
start - 00:00

in the tx config menu under timer settings set 'Timeup interval' to whatever (x) and you'll get a beep when the switch is flipped to Mix2 and beeps every 'x' seconds after.

Hello

Many thanks,

This solution works, but in the config menu i can't get 'Timeup interval' less than 5s.

It there a way to decrease it to 2s ?

What radio + deviation version are you using? My 6s lets me choose: off, and 1-60 in 1sec increments.
