Hardware
1.1
Description
Beeper, STATUS LED and function button work like the corresponding components on the
IO- BOARD (please refer to the manual of the HORNET ECU for details).
On the VSpeak ECU Converter STATUS LED and function button has additional functions
(see section 2.0 and 2.4.2).
The Micro SD card slot is used for updates.
The blue LED is blinking every second to signal the normal function of the ECU Converter.
1.2
Installation
The ECU Converter can be mounted inside the model with M3 nylon standoffs and screws or
something similar. The provided LED socket can be mounted in the hull in order to see the LED
from outside of the model.
1.3
Connection
The RJ12 Western plug has to be connected DIRECTLY to the "TERMINAL" socket on the
HORNET ECU. Since the ECU Converter replicates the function of the IO-BOARD and the
TERMINAL, you must not connect both at the same time. If you do so the ECU might show
abnormal behaviour.
For Jeti Duplex, Multiplex (and ACT) and HoTT the VSpeak ECU Converter is shipped
with an 3-pin connector to connect to the telemetry port of the RC system.
For Spektrum systems the VSpeak ECU Converter is shipped with a 4-pin connector for the
X-Bus port of the telemetry module.
