PPM with Futaba R617FS?

So, I am using the R617FS which I normally connect with PWM inputs for each channel.  Some surfing has dug up this mod which outputs PPM from the R617FS on which ever pin you choose, but only the first five channels. 

Does the current APM failsafe/PPM encoder software deal with this, or as mentioned in some of the source code notes, only when channels 1-8 are present?

Has anyone tried this?    (before I destroy my R617FS doing so...)

 

Thanks in advance!
