1 Spirit Integration

Sprit Integration is interface for configuration of the Spirit unit. All changes related to the Spirit RS, GTR can be done from there. You can enter and close it anytime you wish.

It is highly advised to not enter the setup while flying! If you were performing changes in this menu, always close it according section Closing Spirit menu.

1.1 Opening Spirit menu

To open Spirit setup you can proceed in the following way.

Open Spirit menu in the Model/Heli Tuning.

In case you are getting error message when opening the integration menu, please install the latest JETI integration file - available at our web pages.
SPIRIT-3.X.zip archive must be extracted and all the files copied to the Devices directory inside your Radio. Please see following section Updating Integration (BIN) files.

1.1.1 Updating Integration (BIN) files

For Integration menu to work properly it is always needed that the file version correspond to firmware version.

If you were performing Spirit firmware update or you never used integration before please download the latest Jeti Integration files from Spirit System web page. The file is called SPIRIT-3.X.zip. Alternative way is to update the files through Jeti-Studio software, but files might not correspond to the latest Spirit firmware.

Updating procedure:

1. Download JETI Integration ZIP archive from our web page - click at the JETI icon.
2. Extract the archive to your hard disc.
3. Connect JETI radio with USB cable to your computer.
4. Confirm USB connection at the radio.
5. Copy content of the directory SPIRIT-3.X to Devices folder in SD Card of your radio. This process must rewrite old files.

After this procedure, you should see SPIRIT.bin, REX-RS.bin files and SPIRIT directory located in the Devices.

You can easily change any parameter and changes are applied immediately. But to store any changes do not forget to Save the settings.

Click at the Save Settings in the Spirit menu to save all changes you have made in the Spirit RS, GTR settings. Otherwise after re-power changes are returned to the previous values.
