Custom telemetry screen

OpenTX/EdgeTX radio has a "custom telemetry screen" that can display telemetry , sticks, switches and other information while piloting, as shown in this picture. This screen can be called up by pressing [TELE] key or pressing and holding [PAGE] key while main screen is displayed. The procedure for calling this screen differs depending on radio. There are 4 custom telemetry screens in total, and you can switch screens by pressing [PAGE] key.
MODEL DISPLAY screen allows you to specify what to display on this custom telemetry screen.

There is no "custom telemetry screen" for color display/touch panel models. Instead, you can put widgets on the main screen to display your preferred information. See below for details.
