FUNCITIONALITY OF R/C CHANNELS
A. Operation via 1 R/C channel
Switch K5 is in its upper position.
When pushing switch K5 from upper to centre position, the spindles will drive outwards until the potentiometer is drawn to its center
position.
Filling volume of the Piston Tanks will then be at about 90%.In this position the boat should then be in neutral buoyancy.
B. Operation via 2 R/C channels
Switch K5 is in its upper position.
When pushing switch K5 from upper to center position, the spindles will drive outwards until the potentiometer is drawn to its center
position.
Filling volume of the Piston Tanks will then be at about 90%.In this position the boat should then be in neutral buoyancy.
Now the model can be trimmed stern- or bow-heavy via proportional slider switch K6.
When pushing switch K5 to its down position, the Piston Tanks will be filled to 100%. Both Piston Tanks will stop instantly at this filling
volume. When pushing switch K5 to its upper position, both Piston Tanks will be entirely emptied (0% volume). Again, both Piston Tank
motors will switch off instantly as soon as they have reached this position.
C. Operation via 3 R/C channels (recommended)
Switch K5 is in the upper position.
When pushing switch K5 from upper to center position, the spindles will drive outwards until the potentiometer is drawn to its center
position.
Filling volume of the Piston Tanks will then be at about 90%.In this position the boat should then be in neutral buoyancy.
The model can then be fine-trimmed via proportional slider switch K7.
In addition, the model can be trimmed stern- or bow-heavy via proportional slider switch K6.
When pushing switch K5 to its down position, the Piston Tanks will be filled to 100%. Both piston tanks will stop instantly at this filling
volume.
When pushing switch K5 to its upper position, both Piston Tanks will be entirely emptied (0% volume). Again, both Piston Tank motors
will switch off instantly as soon as they have reached this position.
A detailed description for all functions is given by diagram "Transmitter Setup" (see last page of this manual), assuming that all possi-
ble R/C channels are used. The last picture on the diagram solely refers to the TmaxS system (Tmax + Static Depth Controller TAES).
With the potentiometers of both Piston Tanks in their center position the model must initially be trimmed manually (by adding or remo-
ving lead from the model) to neutral buoyancy, meaning that the submerged model does not submerge any further but remains at the
corresponding depth. Nevertheless, a slight positive buoyancy of approx. 5-7 grams should remain.
