Fine Tuning ESC Readability (for HRS receivers ONLY)
MC-SETUP
Level
LV3
Only
DEFINITION:
Adjusts frame rate of transmitter output to throttle channel for
setting up non-Futaba ESCs with HRS systems. HRS frame rate is faster than
many speed controls can properly read to complete their auto setups.
Important
: Always try to setup your ESC normally first.
AVAILABLE FOR:
HRS receivers ONLY.
ADJUSTABILITY:
N/A.
INTERACTION:
Must be used only when you are using an HRS receiver and the
ESC fails to set up normally. When setting up, do not use receiver; use only with
the proper cords (not included), connecting the speed control as shown below.
DESIRED END RESULT:
Quick, easy setup of non-Futaba ESCs with
HRS receivers.
CAUTIONS:
•
ONLY use when you will be using HRS
receivers/modulation.
•
MUST use the two-way cord and DSC cord to connect
ESC directly to transmitter to complete this setup.
Reciever is not plugged into the ESC at this time.
•
Transmitter switch MUST be turned off after setup is
executed or the mode cannot be reset and the system
can not transmit properly. Warning will display
“
CAUTION! NOW MOD OFF
”.

GOAL:
Complete auto-setup of a non-Futaba ESC
that is not setting up properly on its own
when in use with an HRS receiver, while
using
LV3
. (If using
LV1
or
LV2
, first select
level
LV3
, see p. 12.)
Where Next:
STEPS:
Be sure transmitter is in HRS mode. Be
sure battery is plugged in and ESC is on.
Turn transmitter off. Set up DSC/two-way
cord. Transmitter will power itself
up automatically.
Select

Activate amp setup.
Follow manufacturer’s auto-setup instructions
for ESC.

TURN TRANSMITTER OFF.
(Transmitter can not transmit until power is
cycled.) Disconnect two-way cord and DSC.
