5. Иштөө нускамалары

5.1 Күйгүзүү/өчүрүү

Connect the VTX to a compatible power source (7-36V). The VTX will power on automatically. Disconnect the power source to turn off the VTX.

5.2 Channel and Power Adjustment (IRC Tramp)

The MATEN 1.2G 2W VTX supports the IRC Tramp protocol, allowing you to adjust channels and output power directly through your flight controller's OSD. Consult your flight controller's manual for specific instructions on configuring VTX control via IRC Tramp.

The VTX has a button for manual channel and power selection if OSD control is not used or configured. Press the 'CHAN' button to cycle through channels and the 'PWR' button to cycle through power levels.
