2. Servo Sync
To match two servos together, use the Servo Sync option when
programming Neutral and Endpoints. The first step is to program and
save the first servo at the desired positions. Exit the programming
mode and then place the programmed servo into the SYNC slot of
the HFP-30. Place the next servo into the Servo slot and enter the
programming mode. Enter the EPA and Neutral Setting menu and
begin programming the servo. As the servo’s neutral and endpoints
are adjusted, you will see the servo in the SYNC slot move to its
preprogrammed center and endpoints allowing easy matching of the
new servo and those positions.
3. Rotation (CW_CCW):
Highlight CW_CCW on the main screen and press the Adjust Dial to
enter the menu. Under the Now Values will be the current rotation
direction. Below will be the value to set. Use the Adjust Dial to change
from CW to CCW. Once at the desired rotation, press the Adjust Dial to
save the value to the Now Values. Press the BACK button to exit to the
main menu.
4. Deadband (DB_Width):
Highlight DB_Width on the main screen and press the Adjust Dial to
enter the menu.
Note: Hitec Digital Servos from the factory are set to the tightest
Deadband possible by default. Even if the Deadband can be set
lower with the programmer, it will have no effect on the servo.
Once in the menu, the current Deadband is displayed under Now
Values. Use the Adjust Dial to change the value under the Set Values.
Once the desired Deadband is reached, press the Adjust Dial to save
the value to Now Values. Use the BACK button to exit to the main
menu. Values for the Deadband are 1-20.
5. Speed:
Highlight Speed in the main menu and press the Adjust Dial. Once
in the menu, the current speed is displayed under Now Values. Use
the Adjust Dial to change the value under the Set Values. Once the
desired speed is reached, press the Adjust Dial to save the value to
Now Values. Use the BACK button to exit to the main menu. Values for
speed are 10 – 100%.
6. Failsafe:
Sometimes it is desired to have the servo go to a preset position when
it loses signal.
To enter the menu, use the Adjust Dial to scroll to page 2 of the main
menu and press the dial once highlighted. Follow the on-screen
instructions and center the Pulse Dial. Current Failsafe settings are
listed under ‘Now Values’. Use the Pulse Dial to set the Failsafe
position. Once set, use the Adjust Dial to turn Failsafe on or off.
Press the Adjust Dial to save setting to servo. The new setting will be
displayed in the ‘Now Values’. Use the Back button to exit the menu.
7. Soft Start:
The Soft Start feature, depending on the setting, allows the servo to
either quickly or slowly move to the received signal when first turned
on. Once it reaches the correct position, normal operation of the servo
resumes. By default, this feature is enabled on D Series servos. To
enter the menu, use the Adjust Dial to scroll to page 2 of the main
menu and press the dial once highlighted. Current Soft Start settings
are listed under ‘Now Values’. To change the values, turn the Adjust
Dial to the desired percentage and press the dial to set it. The new
setting will be displayed in the ‘Now Values’. Use the Back button to
exit the menu.
8. Factory Default (Factory Default Set):
Sometimes it is best to restore the servo back to Factory Default
settings. To enter the menu, use the Adjust Dial to scroll to page 2 of
the main menu and press the dial once highlighted. Follow the on-
screen prompts to reset the servo. Once each prompt is completed,
the corresponding box will say OK. After the last one, the servo will be
reset to factory defaults.
