The switch then has two functions, Throttle Cut & Aux 4. Then in the Warnings Menu assign a warning to Chan:Aux 4 Under 0% That does it for me, the system will then not start up unless the switch is in the Throttle Cut position & you get an audible warning, just like when you switch on with the throttle open. It works even if you are using, say, a 4 channel Rx that does not have Aux 4. Edited By John Lee on 21/10/2020 14:02:53 Well done John. The answer from Spektrum Tech support.... Dear Bill, On the Warning screen, change Chan to an open Aux port, and then go to Channel Input Config screen and set your choice of switch to the same Aux port. Sincerely, Chris W.

John Lee - I've got that working, thank you. I am usually good at ensuring all my switches are off before powering on, but it's nice to have that as a back up. It isn't a pretty solution as the warning is about Servo 9, but at least it's there! I've emailed Spektrum support to see if the manual is wrong, or we're missing something Thanks again Bill

Many thanks for all the input, it seems that it should, according to the manual, be simpler than it actually is

Apologies if I didn't make myself clear. I have the switch set how I want. I would like an alert at powering on the TX if the switch is in the wrong position - something the manual says is possible, but I can't work out how to set the warning on the switch position.

Hi All I have recently returned to Spektrum and am setting up my DX9. According to the manual I can set an alert during power up for "any selected switch". In the warnings screen I can see how to set an alert for Throttle position, flight mode, gear and various channels. What I don't see is any way to set the alert for a switch position. Can anyone assist please? What I am trying to achieve is for the TX to alert me if I power on with my throttle cut off (switch A). Many thanks Bill
