RC6 -> SERVO9 IRIS+ Gimbal Control

ArduCopter Copter 4.2

All, I am attempting to set up 3DR IRIS+ Tarot gimbal for a friend, using my IRIS+. I have set RC6 to RC PASSTHRU and parameter SERVO9 (AUX 1) to passthru. I monitor AUX 1 with an oscilloscope (no gimbal on my IRIS), and there is no activity whatsoever.

When monitoring RC6 in MP, the PWM varies as I rotate the tilt knob on the IRIS+
controller, so that works. I also tested with SERVO9 set for TILT, no action…

Can anyone help with establishing the link between RC6 and Servo 9? Much appreciated!

@CharlieKeck,

So it sounds like you’d like servo9 (aux1)'s output to be the same as the RC6 input? In which case set SERVO9_FUNCTION = RCIN6.

Thank you so much! Will hit it in the a.m.

CH 6 PWM now on AUX1. Thank you again!
