This ESC needs no sensor information. If there is a sensor cable out of the motor, it
will not be used.
5. Quick Start:
The ESC comes with an APM (Auto-Programming-Mode), so it will adapt itself to the throttle
positions of the RC. Proceed as follows:
a) Connect the motor to the PIX speed control.
b) Plug the PIX ESC in the appropriate receiver socket.
c) Switch on the Tx with the throttle control to off.
d) Connect the battery to the PIX speed control.
e) 3 or 6 beep sounds from the motor.
f) Give 1 sec. full throttle or start with full throttle.
g) Ready.
In all other modes the stick ways are only programmed once and have not to be
adapted at each start again.
6. Mode programming
6.1 Auto Programming Mode APM -
Reset (Mode 1)
In APM the ESC equalizes itself after every
battery connection to the actual throttle
control.
Programming the APM deletes all
previous settings = Reset.
Programming sequence mode 1
1) For an audible signal connect the
motor to the PIX.
2) Turn on the Tx and set the throttle
to EMF-brake position (back
position).
3) Connect the battery.
4) Wait 2 sec., or until

6.2 Glider Mode (Mode 2)
All required properties for electric powered
glider airplanes are preadjusted in this
mode.
•
The EMF-brake and the under voltage
cut off are activated.
•
The over temperature cut off and the
over current cut off are activated in
order to disconnect the motor at over
load conditions.
•
The throttle positions are stored during
the mode programming, so the
equalizing procedure is no more
necessary
•
It’s possible to program a separate
motor off position. In this throttle
position the motor is off, but the EMF-
brake is not activated. So a folding
propeller keeps open and can be used
as an air brake.
•
If no separate motor off position is
programmed, the motor off position is
identical to the brake position.

To fly with activated under voltage
disconnection and without brake, change
the trim setting after programming so that
the brake position is not longer reached
during flight.
