User manual FUTABA MC950CR

[. . . ] · This manual has been carefully written. Please write to Futaba if you feel that any corrections or clarifications should be made. Install the receiver and receiver antenna away from the amp, motor cord, power cord, Nicd battery, and other parts that carry a high current. Metal and carbon chassis and other conductive parts transfer switching noise. When mounting the receiver to such a chassis, use thick double-sided tape to mount the receiver as far away from the chassis as possible. [. . . ] · Provide plenty of cooling openings in the bodywork; this increases the performance and extends the life of all electronic components. · Install the speed control in a location where it is protected from crash damage. · The speed control should be installed in such a way that you have easy access to all connectors and the set-up button. Important: ·Ensure that there is an adequate distance (approx. 3 cm) between the speed control and power cables and the receiver or receiver antenna. Avoid direct contact between all power system components and the receiver or antenna, as this can cause interference. If you encounter interference problems, re-position the components in the model. ·The antenna should be run vertically up and away from the receiver. Avoid contact with any parts made of carbon fibre or metal. See also the instructions supplied with your radio control system. CONNECTION MOT. A to motor A(1) Terminal cover Power switch MOT. C to motor C(3) Sensor conector Connect the sensor cable to the MC950CR and the motor. (drivable sensor motor) Fan conector Connect the fan cable. (fan is optional part) Push button switch Positive (+B) battery MOT. B to motor B(2) Negative (-B) battery 2 Hold the SET button pressed in for at least 3 seconds using the small screwdriver supplied. * Since the data is read at the end of setting of all points, the points cannot be set independently. * If the amp power was turned off during setting, the setting points cannot be memorized. (The previous settings are retained. ) * The confirmation beep sounds only when the motor was connected. * If you make a mistake during the set-up procedure, and setting is not completed. : switch MC950CR off and start again from the first step. * Check the operation by the following "LED DISPLAY. " When throttle operation and the CHECKER LED DISPLAY are not correct, set up again from the first step. · The SET LED flashes green, to indicate that the unit is in set-up mode. Transmitter throttle operation MC950CR SET button operation LED 3 4 5 Neutral point setting N LED goes out and the · Neutral state · Press SET button once. motor beeps. flashes blue two times and the motor beeps. LED goes out High point setting Brake MAX point setting N · Full high state · Press SET button once. Receiver connector Connects to the receiver throttle channel (CH2). N · Full brake state · Press SET button once. flashes blue three times and the motor beeps. LED goes out · This completes the set-up procedure. LED Reverse Cancelling function (Brake operation only) While pressing the push button switch, set the power switch to ON. (5 times) *When desired, you can enable the cancelled reverse function by repeating the operation shown above. (The reverse function is switched alternately. ) POWER CAPACITOR Always install Power Capacitor to suppress battery noise. Also, Power Capacitor stores battery energy and supplies this to the motor additionally when extra power is required. [Wiring Precautions] · Always set the MC950CR power switch to the OFF position before performing any wiring. · When stripping the covering of the silicon cord to the length needed for soldering, be sure not to cut the center conductor with the cutter or nippers. [. . . ] · Set the transmitter throttle to neutral, and then switch the speed control on. * Depending on the neutral position of the throttle, the red and green LED will blink simultaneously (orange) and a beeping sound will be repeated. (Alarm: Waiting for neutral data) Heat protection: After the FET overheating is detected, a protection circuit operation alarm is activated, and the output to the motor is gradually lowered, and then, output to the motor is cut. The protection circuit is automatically reset by a drop in the FET temperature. Low battery protection: When the power supply voltage drops, the output current to the motor is limited and supply voltage to the receiver is ensured. [. . . ]
