IMPORTANT NOTICE! If your servos have a failsafe programmed into
them, the failsafe must be turned OFF for the AutoMatch to work.
“Failsafe OFF” means that the when the receiver signal is lost to the
servo (but power is still present), the servo can freely move – there
is no holding force at all. Many Hitec (and a few other brand) servos
do NOT have a failsafe that operates this way - instead, during a
signal loss the servo moves to 1500us and retains the normal
holding force. This will interfere with the setup of the automated
setup. These servos can still be used, but will require some extra
effort plugging in and unplugging servos as needed.
If your servos can not be turned OFF with a loss of signal you will
have to unplug ALL servos before doing the AutoMatch, and only
plug in the servos as outlined below:
When you enter the AutoMatch mode all servos must be unplugged.
After selecting the Setup Master option, plug in just the master
servo, make all of your adjustments, unplug the master servo, and
then exit the Setup Master option.
After selecting the Setup Slave 'x' (where 'x' is the slave number),
plug in just the slave servo, make all of your adjustments, unplug
the slave servo, and then exit the Setup Slave option.
After selecting Start AutoMatch, plug in just the master servo, set
the end points and center, plug in all slave servos, and start the
automatch process.
When the AutoMatch is done, unplug all of the slave servos and exit
the menu system (LED will be green). You can then plug in the slave
servos.
If your servos do shut off (can freely move) when there is no PWM
pulse, then you can simply follow the on-screen instructions to setup
and start the AutoMatch.
