capacity on the TX, as if it was the electric pack capacity, the radio discount
automatically the fuel consumed reported from the ecu from the value entered in the
radio, ignoring the value entered in the setup of the telemetry adapter. Procedure to
adjust the pump factor is the same.
Spektrum setup (only on Spektrum adapters):
Connect the Spektrum SPMA9579 lead (not supplied) on the socket of the adapter,
taking care of the proper alignment, and connect the other end of the lead to the
TM1000 module (not supplied). If there are more sensors in the system, the turbine
adapter should be the last on the chain.
Bind the TM1000 to the TX, check the Spektrum instructions for binding. You should see
that the TX confirms the binding including telemetry. The turbine telemetry is supported
only in high end Spektrum radios (from DX10).
Once the system bound, activate the turbine telemetry on the TX (check TX instructions).
On old firmware, the turbine telemetry is displayed as “JETCAT”, newer firmware displays
“TURBINE”.
You will have the readings of RPM, Throttle, EGT, pump voltage, ecu battery and
remaining fuel in ml.
PowerBOX setup (only on Tele4 or higher models):
At the time of writing, the PowerBox protocol is not fully developed, so we may
update the telemetry once it gets the final version.
If just one engine is going to be used it is a complete plug and play. But two
things have to be considered. As how the P
2
-Bus is designed the radio will not
SCAN automatically for new sensors, it does it on start up or if you force a
Rescan. So, if the transmitter is already plugged in, consider to force a Rescan or
a complete reset.
