Emergency Trigger Button (V3.6.3 or Earlier)
Last updated
Last updated
As discussed previously in the "Status Indications" section, an additional "Emergency Trigger" function exists for the user in the configuration menu if using firmware version 3.6.3 or earlier. If activated, this function will deploy the PRS-M3DTEX immediately if the system is armed and the button is pressed. This differs from the "deploy" button on the main status screen, which must be held down for 3 seconds prior to the PRS-M3DTEX deploying.
Examples of the original configuration menu interface with the "Emergency Trigger" option included are attached below:
Extreme caution must be exercised if operating the PRS-M3DTEX with version 3.6.3 or earlier, as the parachute will deploy if the "parachute arm" and "emergency trigger" functions are both toggled on. As such, users shall ensure that the "Emergency Trigger" option is toggled off at all times before and during flight.
All customers must perform a firmware update to version 3.6.4, which no longer includes the Emergency Trigger interface.
As well, if using version 3.6.3 or earlier, the "RF binding" function displayed in the above images is an obsolete function and shall be ignored.
