Help/advice setting up SD KFZ 9 famo audio option pack

[Adrian Harris]

In the video, are you using Switch D after you press the button on the Benedini board and are you using Switch A to play the sound at the end ?

Found this video on youtube that seems to explain the setting up procedure well.
Releant part starts at about 6:15

Hi again all wires are correct setting up as instructions with three way switch move throttle a little click the three way switch backwards then to centre, then full throttle move three way switch away and back to centre should all be set, no sound at all.

HI,
When you do the calibration, does it give you confirmation beeps?
from memory,
first you have to calibrate the center/neutral position by confirming with the lever,
then you move the throttle slightly and confirm with the lever,
throttle at maximum and confirm with the lever,
I use a spring lever with return to the center,
I move in a towards the lever to select the sound (from 1 to 12 times),
I confirm by moving the lever to the opposite side,
so I get the sound, check if the benedini output is connected correctly,
always by heart one pin is the ground, one is the output for the speaker and one is the amplifier output,
this is the manufacturer's website:
http://www.benedini.de/index.html
You will find the manual and instructions.
downloading is not free,
you have to send an email to Thomas to get his username and password
Marco
P.s. when I do tests I use a small speaker connected directly to the Benedini,
so you can understand if the problem is the sound card or the amplifier

What did you do to get the sound in the video ?

What happens if you move the switch in the other direction when going through the set up process ?

Hi adrian I moved a switch on the top it made the sound once then the light started flashing again on the audio board press so light is solid then go through set up again moving throttle etc then nothing. Losing the will going to try again today. Thanks for your patience. Been looking if I could send it somewhere to be set up. I think its the transmitter.

If the switch at the top made it make a sound then that's the one controlling the channel which is connected to the Audio Module, not the one on the front.

If you scroll right, there should be a Monitor screen, which will show you what the transmitter is sending to the receiver. Check which switch affects the channel you have connected to the Audio module (Gear ?) - I'm pretty sure it's going to be the one at the back (SW A), which is no good as it's only a two way switch.

To change this to the switch at the front do the following:

Press the roller, scroll down to System Setup and press again. Scroll to Yes and press again.

Scroll down to Digital Switch Set Up and press the roller.

Scroll to Select and press.

Scroll to Switch D and press.

Scroll down to Channel and press.

In Channel Input Config, scroll to Gear and press the roller.

Scroll so that says D and press the roller.

Press Back twice and you should get back to the TX start screen.

Scroll to the monitor scree and now the switch on the front should operate the Gear channel.

Try doing the sound setup process again.

Hi Adrian I work like to thank you for your help and advice , did everything you said and it worked perfectly, can't believe it was something with the transmitter, now I can crack on with the build. I was just about to throw the towel in with the sound. Cheers. Also a shout out to armortek for help and patience.

You're welcome Roy. Glad you're back on track
