Radio - Futaba FASST > 12fgh with Futaba GV-1 Very Confused need Help :(

Im having trouble setting up my GV-1 Governor with the Futaba 12fgh radio. I want to accomplish setting this up with SA as the master on/off switch( 3 position switch off/on/on) and having the rpms change according to my idle up switch SE(Normal, Idle 1, Idle 2.)
I have on/off on channel 8 and Rpms on channel 7. In the function menu I have Governor2 channel 8 set to switch SA(OFF/ON/ON). In my Governor menu I have Switch set to SA. This setup is not currently working.

With heli powered on the Governor rS2 screen it shows rS2 and changes with my on/off switch(SA) from rS2 to rS3 I dont see rS1. My idle up switch does nothing. My rpms in the rS2 screen also does not match my rpms in my governor screen.(I understand but have not tried that I must set normal to 1000, idle 1 to 1500 and idle 2 to 2000 and do the same for the gv1 to get it calibrated?)

Please Help
Spent time with this fideling with switches to no luck

you have the switch set to off/on/on. recheck that. there shouldnt be 2 on's only 1. "on" only in the flight mode and rate your using at the time.

lmk i have the same radio but diff. gov. took me awhile to get it working buts its great now.

I finally got it working
Had to set sr1 to 1000, sr2 to 1500 and sr3 to 2000 on the radio and governor then adjust.

On the governor gv1 the switch is off/off/on, on the radio its off/on/on. I read that on the 14mz, 12z you can set it to off/on/on with the afr menu on governor channel, on the 12fgh I dont see a governor channel in afr menus only aux 1, 2, 3.

I would also like to have rates for each condition, how do you asign rates to a 3 position switch. I assume that in the governor menu on the radio the switch is just for off/on.

for the gv-1 you go into the rate you want by pressing s1 in the governor menu, then go to switch and select the switch you want, then keep scrolling through that menu to ON/OFF and set what position turns on that rate. then exit back out to the gov menu, repeat for each rate setting(up to 3)
