Futaba S.BUS2
The FLOW-meter converter is fully compatible with S.BUS2. Registration and connection are
established as with any other S.BUS2 sensor.
Caution:
We generally recommend a strict separation between sensor values and servo data. Although
the S: BUS 2 can transmit servo data, the S.BUS2 should exclusively be used for the
transmission of sensor data and only the S.BUS1 should be used for the servos. In this way, the
servo data are excluded from influencing on failure of a sensor.
2.4.1
Registration at the transmitter
The FLOW-meter must be registered on the transmitter like any S.BUS2 sensor.
The slot allocation is required only once, this can be done manually or by the transmitter.
Manual Slot Allocation:
1.
Select the desired sensor at free slot addresses on the transmitter (see Table Assignment
Sensor – FLOW-meter values).
2.
Transfer the slot addresses set on the transmitter to the parameter file "FLOW.TXT"
(see section 2.4.4).
Slot allocation by the transmitter:
Connect the Telemetrie Port of the FLOW-meter with to the "S.I / F" socket of the
transmitter.
Now you can register the FLOW-meter - please refer to the instructions of the respective
transmitter. For transmitters without supply voltage at the "S.I / F" socket, a receiver battery
must also be connected via V-cable.
Since the FLOW-meter displays its data using a total of 1 or 2 sensors, the registry has also
be done 1 or 2 times.
