4. Information on usage and security
Please use only low internal resistance battery-packs of the best quality as a supply
for your flight set. Use battery-packs of a higher capacity for your receiver. If one
battery happens to fail during flight, then the other one will provide enough energy
for the receiver. Use only battery-packs of the same type. It’s the only way for the
safe use of your model aeroplane. You may use high-quality battery-packs from our
stock. We stock battery-packs covering a wide range of possible uses for models of
all types. You can therefore take full advantage of our many years of experience
thus ensuring the total safety of your model aeroplane.
Of course there will be no problem should you wish to connect two independent
receivers to our power-control unit. But you must read of the manual that comes
with these receivers concerning the use of the two receivers in order to avoid any
possible interference. The power supply for the receiver is provided by the four
servo-connection-cables of the
POWER BOX 40/16
to the two servo line-ins for
each receiver. Please choose the channels for each of the receivers, for which the
impulses are to be amplified.
Place the
Dual-Power-Control
unit, just like any other part of your on board
aeroplanes flight set, in such a position in your model where it will be safe from any
vibrations. The electronic LED display part of the unit may be damaged if the
vibrations are too severe. But it is impossible that the dual-power-control will ever
break down due to these vibrations. So the power supply necessary to your
receiver is fully guaranteed at all times.
The clamping-plate has four holes which will help you when installing the switch.
Install the
POWER BOX
40/16
in a position which will allow you to see and check
the switch from outside of the plane.
Then connect the two battery-packs to the dual-power-control with a separate
battery switch for each. We would also recommend that you use our special high-
current switches for easy use.
If you operate first one and then the second switch, you can check the
Dual-power
control. The LED’s must display the momentary voltage of the battery-pack. Then
you connect – while you have interrupted the power supply – to the receiver. The
receiver set must work even if only one storage battery is being activated. You can
check this fact by switching on the transmitter and moving the rudder.
The
Power Box 40/16
fully meets the EMV-Requirements. Therefore it has the CE-
badge. The switch is built for use only in models and must be used only in remote-
controlled models. You may use it only with D.C., which is provided by a NiCd- or
NiMH-storage battery with a maximum of 5 cells. Don’t use it with power supply.
