possible that the centering need a new adjust, just go back to previous adjustment by
the menu buttons.
Motor adjust:
This last section of adjustment allows adapting the unit to different motors. These
adjustments are not available in some of the units that are setup by motor
manufacturer.
First adjustment is “Motor Cut Amperage”. Maximum value is 2,5A. This is the
threshold amperage to detect that the motor have arrived at end of travel. This is the
most important parameter that should be set to the recommended value from the motor
manufacturer. It should not be changed unless you know exactly what you are doing. A
too high value could cause that the endpoint be undetected, burning the motor, or that
the gear train to be damaged by a excess of torque.
Next, it is the “Unload time”. When the gear movement is finished, a short pulse of
reversed power is sent to the motor to remove the tension stress on the gears,
bearings and suspension. Too low time will not unload the motor, causing high stress
and wear; too long time can move the slider out of “lock” position.
Last adjustable parameter is the “Maximum Motor time”. This is a security parameter
that will power down the motors after a certain operation time (programmable) to
prevent the case that the endpoint is undetected.
Last screen display a counter of operations to track the number of the cycles and
schedule maintenance.
Manual operation:
Besides the operation in normal mode (controlled by the radio), there unit offers several
testing options to operate the gear in manual model.
Under “Manual mode” menus, you can deploy or retract the gear, with the possibility of
to stop and resume the movement in any point, plus operate each gear independently
up and down, with the possibility of to stop, reverse and resume the movement in any
point of the travel.
NOTE: When you leave the manual mode menus, the controller will return to a “RC
mode”, so the gear will move automatically to the currently command received from the
transmitter.
Switch On delay:
There is some intelligence build in the controller to prevent unwanted gear operation
when switching on the receiver and power supply. At power up, the controller will wait
during 3 seconds, waiting for the receiver to boot and stabilize the outputs, ignoring any
glitches that it could generate during this time. After these 3 seconds, the controller will
begin to check the RC signal, but will wait to operate the gear until a change on RX
signal is received. Thus, if at “switch on” the gear is down, but the signal received from
the TX is “gear up”, the gear will keep down, it will be necessary to place the TX switch
to “gear down” and back to “gear up” to initiate the retraction.
