3.3. Control Functions and failsafe
In case of error, check the
ProJet
manual. From p. 16 onwards
you will find some concise error descriptions and explanations.
Transmitter signal lost: Auto shut off happens if the transmitter
signal fails on PPM receivers.
Attention!
With PCM receivers,
the fail safe function should be programmed to idle in order to
avoid emergency stops upon intermittent receiving errors.
With 2.4 Ghz receivers, the throttle range has to be
programmed and failsafe position teached to the transmitter.
Setup the throttle ATV from the transmitter at +- 150%. Then
program the failsafe throttle point at -150%.
Adjust the throttle ATV range back to +- 100%. Make sure that
no throttle curve is programmed in the transmitter. Learn RC
from the ECU ground support unit in menu 2.1. Please refer to
the transmitter user manual to set the failsafe point
.
The fail safe auto shutdown must be checked at the field. With
the turbine running, switch off the transmitter and make sure
that the turbine shuts down.
The ECU status should read
"failsafe" and the I/O board should beep continuously
. This is
an AMA requirement.
3.4. Tuning Options / Electronics
Please refer to the Pro Jet manual for tuning options. You
should study the latter carefully.
Avoid
a system reset!!!
As a result, the ECU may have to be updated at the Ultimate
Jets factory again
.
The ECU features a code controlled menu system. Every
number features an individual menu point. From these menu
points you have options of changing different pre-set
parameters. This should, if at all, be done very carefully
because the factory setting of most parameters is already
optimal.
The following parameters are to be verified, i.e. changed, also
after a system reset (see attached sheet).
3.1 Battery voltage
2.3 Adjustment of the temperature probe
2.2 Glow voltage
2.1 Pulse width of the sender signal
1.4 Pump starting voltage
