Cutoff Voltage
●
.
Automatically detect the number of the cells
According to the type of your batteries , set up the type of the batteries and Low Voltage Cutoff Threshold via PC software or program card. The ESC can
detect the Voltage of the battery anytime and will lower the output power once the Voltage of the battery is lower than the preset Low Voltage Cutoff
Threshold.
●
When using NiMH or NiCd batteries you do not need to set a cutoff voltage to protect the batteries. If you are using more than 6-cell NiMH or NiCd
batteries, you must adjust the cutoff voltage, for example if you are using an 8-cell pack of NiMH batteries you would use a cutoff of 5.6V volts (8 x
0.7V = 5.6V). When the voltage of the batteries packs is within 8.4~12.6V, the ESC will automatically identify 3S LiPos. When the voltage of the batteries
packs is less than 8.4V, the ESC will automatically identify 2S LiPos. When the voltage of the batteries packs is within 8.4~16.8V, the ESC will
automatically identify 2~4S LiPos. When the voltage of the batteries packs is within 21~25.2V, the ESC will automatically identify 5-6S LiPos.
●
Customized Voltage Cutoff (for NiMH or NiCd Batteries) you can select a starting cutoff voltage of 4, 5, 6, 9 or 12 volts. Then using the up/down to the
right of the voltage you can increase the voltage stepping up 0.1V between the selectable settings.
●
When using any Lithium batteries, they must not be discharged to less than 3.0V per cell.
Running Mode
●
Forward w/o Reverse
This is a Race setting - Reverse is disabled.
You will find in racing, most tracks will not allow racing with reverse enabled.
●
Forward with pause then Reverse: (DEFAULT)
General bashing around (FUN) or racing if reverse is allowed for the event. The Electronic Speed Controller requires 2 seconds of continuous neutral from the
transmitter prior to allowing reverse to operate.
Note: There is automatic protection within the ZTW ESC. Only after you have stopped and returned the trigger to neutral will reverse become available. If while
traveling in reverse, pull the trigger to go forward. This is to help prevent serious damage to the drive train.
●
Forward / Reverse
If the option is actived, the RC car could go forward and backward, but couldn`t brake.
●
ESC – reverse operation
Should you get into a situation that requires reverse, after you have applied any brakes you may have needed, return the throttle trigger to the neutral position. Wait a
moment or two and then push the trigger forward for reverse.
This option affects the power band and efficiency (run time) of an electric motor. The default is
“
Normal” and is a good starting point to deliver power and provide good
run time.
●
Very Low
：
Provides maximum efficiency with less power. Higher timing produces significantly more power but at the expense of efficiency (less run time) and typically
the motor will generate more heat. Each brushless motor will respond to timing differently. Good for running around on paved, or harder surfaces, and racing with high
KV rated or low-turn motors
●
Low
：
Provides power for running through soft surfaces, having fun and longer run time.
●
Normal
：
(Default) Good mix of power and efficiency using any motor.
