User manual NOVAK 410-HPC

[. . . ] Slowly rotate the motor's output/pinion shaft. If motor is installed in a vehicle, slowly rotate the drive train so that the motor also rotates. The status LEDs on the speed control should cycle through illuminating the BLUE, YELLOW, and RED status LEDs. If the BLUE, YELLOW, and RED LEDs light up one after another as the motor's shaft is rotated, the Hall Sensors in the motor are operating normally. [. . . ] Because these variables can change or be modified, you MUST continually monitor ESC & motor temperatures to protect your electronics from damage. Motor Runs Backward · Reverse motor rotation direction­­Refer to `CUSTOM PROGRAMMING OPTIONS' section. · Improper One-Touch set up­­Refer to `ONE-TOUCH PROGRAMMING' section. Speed Control Runs Excessively Hot voltage cut-off circuitry The 410-HPC speed control features Novak's Smart-Stop Voltage Cut-Off Circuitry built-in, and when used properly will allow you to safely use LiPo and LiFe type batteries, without letting the cells drop below their critical safety voltage during operation. The default setting in the speed control is that the Voltage Cut-Off is turned ON and is set to LiPo. If you are using NiMH or NiCd cells, you will need to switch the Voltage Cut-Off feature OFF. If you are using LiFe cells, you will need to switch the Voltage Cut-Off feature to the LiFe battery setting. · Gear ratio too low­­Increase gear ratio/Reduce pinion (refer to `PROPER GEAR SELECTION'). · Motor is damaged­­Try a different motor. Model Runs Slowly/Slow Acceleration · Gear ratio too high­­Reduce gear ratio/Increase pinion (refer to `PROPER GEAR SELECTION'). · Check battery & connectors­­Check battery pack & connectors. · Incorrect transmitter/ESC adjustment­­Refer to `TRANSMITTER ADJUSTMENTS'. · Power Trans-Cap Module damaged/missing­­Replace Power Trans-Cap Module. 4. CONTINUE HOLDING SET BUTTON UNTIL RED LED COMES ON 5. RELEASE SET BUTTON AS SOON AS LED TURNS RED 6. · Blue & Green (Locked Rotor Detection), Blue & Red (ESC Thermal Shut-Down), or Blue & Yellow (Motor Thermal Shut-Down) status LEDs blinking. ESC may have shutdown & ESC's neutral point is too far off to sense that transmitter throttle has been returned to neutral (Refer to `ONE-TOUCH' & `TRANSMITTER ADJUSTMENTS'). · Green & White status LEDs blinking. RPM safety limit reached & physical limit of motor bearings being reached/Possible over-rev condition. · Red & Green status LEDs toggling. LiPo/LiFe Safety Cut-Off voltage reached. Remove and charge/replace battery pack. transmitter adjustments Transmitter adjustments may not be required to properly complete the One-Touch programming of the speed control. However, should you have any problems completing the ONE-TOUCH PROGRAMMING, adjust the settings on your transmitter as listed below, then repeat the ONETOUCH PROGRAMMING as described in Step 5. Good Quality Radio System Suggested With the higher performance of brushless systems, undesirable radio system noise may occur when used with lower quality radio systems. 2. 4GHz radio systems are the best to use. FM radio systems are acceptable, as long as the system is high quality. AM radio systems are not recommended. temperature monitoring The 410-HPC has a built-in diagnostic temperature monitoring feature that lets you quickly check the ESC's operating temperature at any time. [. . . ] CONNECT THE ESC TO A CHARGED BATTERY PACK, RECEIVER, AND MOTOR'S SENSOR HARNESS. SLIDE THE ESC's ON/OFF SWITCH TO `ON' POSITION 3. WITH ESC AT NEUTRAL, PRESS & HOLD SET BUTTON Release ESC's SET button once LEDs are lit for the desired setting. To skip a parameter, continue to press & hold SET button until desired parameter is reached. MIN. [. . . ]
