POWER MODULE INSTALLATION
Remove the 8028 LED lights power supply from the chassis (if installed). Install the
Power Module mount on the chassis with the included 2.5x10mm countersunk
cap screw; then, install the Lighting Power Module on the mount with the
included 2.5x12mm (1) and 2.5x18mm (1) cap screws (Fig.1).
COMMUNICATION CABLES
Your Pro Scale Advanced Lighting Control System
includes two communication cables: the
Receiver
Communication Cable
and the optional
MAXX® Link
Cable
. You can use the Receiver Communication
Cable with any TRX-4 or TRX-6 model. The MAXX
Link Cable is designed for use only with TRX-4 or
TRX-6 models equipped with the TQi receiver.
The
6511 Traxxas Link Wireless Module (sold separately)
is required for Traxxas Link App functionality. Some
models may require a software update for the TQi
receiver via the Traxxas Link App for custom lighting
controls and configurations
.
Only use one of the communication cables
to connect the Lighting Power Module to the
receiver. Do not use both cables together.

3. Remove the receiver box cover by removing the three 3x8mm button-head cap screws (Fig 5).
4. Remove the wire clamp by removing the two 2.5x8mm cap screws (Fig 5).
5. Feed the loose end of the Receiver Communication Cable connector over the wire guide and into
the receiver box. To make installation easier, unplug and remove a few of the existing wires from
the receiver box.
Note the locations of any unplugged wires.
Use needle nose pliers to help
grab the connectors and pull them through. Arrange all wires neatly between the wire guides in
the receiver box (Fig. 6). The excess wire will be bundled inside the receiver box.
6. Apply a bead of the included silicone grease
to the wire clamp (Fig. 7).
7. Reinstall the wire clamp and tighten the two
2.5x8mm cap screws securely (Fig. 8).
8. Unplug the electronic speed control (ESC)
from the receiver (channel 2).
9. Plug the communication cable into the
receiver (Fig. 9): the black connector with
the single blue wire plugs into one of the
channel 1 ports; the female black connector
with the 3 black wires plugs into the channel
2 port. Now, plug the black male connector
(white, red, black servo cable) from the ESC
into the black female connector (white, red,
black servo cable) on the communication
cable
(refer to the Wiring Diagram for more
detail).
Leave the steering servo cable
plugged into the other channel 1 port.
10. Make sure the blue o-ring gasket is properly
seated in the groove in the receiver box so
that the cover will not pinch it or damage it
in any way.
11. Reinstall the cover on the receiver box and tighten the three 3x8mm
button-head cap screws securely. Inspect the cover to make sure that the
O-ring seal is not visible.
12. Use the supplied zip ties to bundle the wires neatly and attach them to
the vehicle as needed so that loose wires will not become entangled with
moving parts.

MOTOR SENSE WIRING HARNESS INSTALLATION
1. Unplug the red and black motor wires (bullet connectors) from
the ESC. Plug the bullet connectors from the motor and the
ESC into the motor sense wiring harness (red to red and black
to black) (Fig. 10). Plug the harness connector into the
Motor
Sensor
port on the power module
(refer to the Wiring Diagram
for more detail)
.
2. Use the supplied zip ties to bundle the wires neatly and attach
them to the vehicle as needed so that loose wires will not
become entangled with moving parts.
3. Plug the breakaway cable from the distribution block into the
connector on top of the Power Module before installing the
vehicle body (Fig. 11).

1. Plug one end of the Receiver Communication Cable
(Fig. 2) into the
RX IN
port on the Power Module (Fig. 3)
(refer to the Wiring Diagram for more detail)
.
2. Remove the 3x10mm counter-sunk cap screws (2) from
the battery tray (Fig. 4). Lift up the battery tray and route
the Receiver Communication Cable from the Power
Module under the battery tray and to the receiver box
(refer to the Wiring Diagram for more detail)
. Use a zip tie
(included) to attach the wires. Reinstall and tighten the
battery tray screws.
Note:
Be careful not to pinch or
damage any of the wires under the battery tray.
