 +<p><b>Note</b>: Drop-down values <span style="background-color:#ACFF97;">highlighted in green</span> in the image above represent the literal selection to make. Values <span style="background-color:#33FFFF;">highlighted in blue</span> represent the sound number from the Sounds tab that should be placed in that slot. For example, if you have the cannon fire sound loaded into the Sound 1 row on the Sounds tab, then you should select Sound 1 in <i>position 3</i> of the 1st Coder column since that is where that cannon sound needs to go.

Start</b>.<br /><b>Note:</b> Due to the way the engine is started on the Mini, if you assign the individual "Engine - Turn On" and "Engine - Turn Off" functions on the TCB to a 2-position switch on your transmitter, the Mini will begin playing the engine sounds when you turn on the device, even if the switch on your transmitter is on the Off position. In order to avoid this, use the "Engine - Toggle On/Off" function instead of the individual on and off functions, and assign that to a 2-position switch. One position will toggle the engine, the other position will do nothing. Keep the switch in the nothing position when you start the TCB and it will then remain synchronized with the Mini. <a href="http://openpanzer.org/forum/index.php?topic=73.msg766#msg766">Read this post for a discussion</a>. </li>

 The other settings in TBS Flash you can set as you like and are not discussed here. When you have the Parameter tab configured as shown above, make sure you click the **write Param** (Flash v4) or **Write Device** (Flash v3) button to save these settings to your Mini. It is also recommended you save a copy of the parameter file to your hard-drive for backup. The other settings in TBS Flash you can set as you like and are not discussed here.
