Instruction Manual for YEP Series of Electronic Speed
Controllers

- 6 step adjustable timing or automatic timing adjustment
- Lipo(Auto) / NiMh adjustable.
- Adjustable brake

- Full utilization of the throttle stick

- PWM range from 8 KHz to16KHz adjustable

Higher

- Lower frequency for less switching losses.

-
Active free-wheel
reduces the losses in the partial load range
but can lead to problems in
rare
cases.
In relation

speed controller mode
when using
full power.
2 RC-Setup:
General beep sequences outside of the RC-Setup
programme
: Constant monotonous beep
signals
you are in
programming mode.
When the throttle stick in the neutral position, a group of descending beep sequences means that it
is receiving
a
signal. Afterwards (after
the
signal
is recognised)
more
beeps indicate
the
recognition of the
selected
battery type.
T
hen
the
next
group of ascending beeps means that
the ESC is armed! The ESC is
now
ready for
use
.
Take care once the ESC is armed
!
The correct setting is particularly important for Lipo battery pack, therefore an acoustic control
takes place every
time you
power on the ESC.

the number of cells
the battery pack should always be
fully charged
, even with 3 cells or more.
Otherwise, with high cell numbers
it can happen that a cell is missed and thus the under voltage
protection would trigger too late. The cells of battery pack
s
can be programmed by Prog Card II.
With more than 6 cells the beep sequence becomes two high pitch beeps and then two low
pitch beep
s, This is because
following
the count of so many beeps
is difficult
.
A
high
numbers of cells should not be operated in the auto mode anyway. We recommend to set the
number of cells permanently with the Prog Card II.
The under voltage protection is triggered at 3.1V per cell.

his conservative value can prolong
the life of
your
Lipo battery pack! It is important to make sure the
correct
number of cell
s is
detected
to avoid
a
wrong signal
for
under voltage protection.
A fixed under voltage limit can only be programmed with the Prog Card II. You can also set the
limits for LiFePo battery pack
using
the Prog Card II.
