Default Sanwa mt4 setting help

Hello guys I'd like to use on sw2 switch a servo for the dig installed on a vp hurz kit.....
The problem is it seems on sw2 switch that the servo has only 45 degrees travel...
How I can give to that channel the full travel of a servo?
Tks to anyone for the help

Well, I'm new to the MT-4 myself, but I think I can help.
If you have Aux1 as the port for the dig servo, you need to assign Sw2 to Aux1. Once the switch is assigned, you can setup EPA's for that channel.

Well, I think SW2 is only an on/off switch. If you need a three way switch, you may have to choose one of the trim switches.

The SW2 button on the MT-4 is only a 2 position, Toggle or Push option. It will only give you 0 or 100 with each push. It should work with a dig though since you basically only need an "ON" or "OFF".

Yes you're right but with the hurz dig you need a long travel so I need to set it@-100 on zero to +100 when I push the button...
Now I can go only 0 to +100 or 0 to -100 playing with the menu....
I really need to set it from -100 to + 100 instead the back wheels won't block...

You can't with the SW2. It's only one or the other.

I use the lever to raise up or down the nose of the truck via a servo...
The lever is perfect for moa use... As you show me ..
But the problem is that with the mt4 on sw2 button you can move a servo only fwd or bwd instead on my futaba or speks you can use the full travel on a servo... Is a shame on an amazing trasmitter as the mt4

Hi,

As anybody come up with a solution for this problem?
Is the MT-4S better in this case?

LG
