Direct Servo Control (DSC)
G13
For proper DSC hook-up and operation:
1. Leave the transmitter power switch in the Off position.
The transmitter will not transmit any radio frequency
(RF) in this position.
2. Plug the DSC cord (purchased separately, JRPA132)
into the DSC port in the rear of the transmitter.
3. The encoder section of the transmitter will now be
operational and the LCD display will be lit.
4. Plug the other end of the DSC Cord into the
receiver charge receptacle. (You must use a 3-wire
switch harness, such as the Deluxe Switch Harness
– JRPA001, or a JR Chargeswitch –
JRPA004
, for the
DSC function to work.) Turn the switch harness to the
On position.
Note
: When you install the charging jack, be sure to
hook the charging jack receptacle securely into the
switch harness charge cord.
Why you should use the DSC function:
1. The DSC enables you to check the control surfaces
of your aircraft without drawing the fully operational
200mAh from your transmitter battery pack. Instead,
you will only draw approximately 70mAh when using
the DSC function.
2. The DSC function allows you to make final adjustments
to your airplane without transmitting any radio signals.
Therefore, if another pilot is flying on your frequency,
you can still adjust your aircraft and not interfere with
the other pilot’s aircraft. This is also a tremendous tool
to use in the original setup of your aircraft while still
in the workshop. Because of the lower current draw on
your transmitter, your working time at the bench will be
extended between charges.
Note
: This function is for bench-checking your
aircraft only.
