Default 9Z Dual rates?

Hey all. I just got a 9Z, and I am having trouble with dual rates. The manual was not included in the deal, and it is hard to follow on the adobe files. Any help would be appreciated. I am trying to get Ail, Elev, and Rudder on 1 switch. Any other tips or tricks for this radio would be extremely helpful also. If anybody has a manual they would part with, please let me know.
Eric

i think the only way to have all on one switch is to use the conditions. you have to set up your main condition and copy that condtion then assign each condition to a switch.then you go to afr and set your rates and expos on each surface for that condition. each model can have up to 8 conditions. hope this helps it is kind of hard to explain on the computer. john

It's pretty easy to do. Go into the CND menu, then D/R. You have 3 circuits to choose from, each is for a different surface. Select the circuit you want, set the value you are looking for, then hit the button labeled SWT (for switch). Assign it to whatever switch you want. Do the same on all 3 circuits, and assign them to the same switch. Note that if you want expo on low rates, you do it from the same screen as D/R. Just hit the NXT button and the screen will go to low rate Expo. No need to use a condition for that.

Eury's answer pretty much has you covered on the DR rates.

And As Craig states, go to the frequently asked questions for most answers to most questions you may have. Can be found at Craig's link.

Thanks Eury. The explanation of each surface being its own circuit made it a snap. I got all of my planes set up today.
