CPS Mixing (1, 2, 3 )

This function controls the Futaba CPS-1 channel power switch. Normally, when using the CPS-1 unit to light the vehicle dress-up and other illumination (LED) the CPS-1 unit with LED connected is connected to a vacant switch channel and the LEDs are turned on and off by switch while the vehicle is running. However, when the CPS mixing function is used, the LED can be turned on and off and À ashed in step with steering and throttle operation, as well as being turned on and off by switch. The À ashing speed (cycle) can also be set. For in- stance, the LED can be À ashed as a brake light by throttle brake side operation. Three lines of CPS mixing can be used.

The CPS-1 unit does not operate in SR mode. When using with the T - FHSS SR system, connect it to the channel of the normal mode.

S.Bus Servo

This is a special function which allows Futaba S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo parameter changes to be set by the T7PX transmitter. However, some data changes require a PC and S-Link software. This function is used by connecting Futaba S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo directly to the transmitter. Use the various optional servo extension cords according to the distance between the transmitter and servo. (SR mode setting is for T7PX only, it can not be set with S-Link software.)

-If shutting off while writing the parameters, the servo may fail. Please use this function with suf¿ cient battery power.

-Power is supplied to the servo from the transmitter, but the corresponding voltage is for high voltage servo (HV) use. Since an overvoltage will be applied to servos other than this, connect the corresponding battery to the servo. When the battery is connected, the supply of power from the transmitter automatically stops.

Caution

When connecting an S-BUS servo that does not support high voltage, connect a battery matched

to the servo speciﬁ cations.

High voltage servo support voltage is supplied from the transmitter. If a servo that does not support high voltage is connected, unreasonable force will be applied to the servo and will cause trouble.

Do not disconnect the servo connector or turn off the transmitter power while writing parameters.

It may cause the servo to malfunction.

Dead band

The dead band angle at stopping can be speciﬁed.

Small - Dead band angle is small and the servo is immediately operated by a small signal change.

Large - Dead band angle is large and the servo does not operate at small signal changes.

(Note)

increase and the life of the servo will be shortened.

Damper

The characteristic when the servo is stopped can be set.

When smaller than the standard value, the characteristic becomes an overshoot characteristic. If the value is larger than the standard value, the brake is applied before the stop position. Especially, when a large load is applied, overshoot, etc. are suppressed by inertia and hunting may occur, depending on the conditions. If hunting (phenomena which cause the servo to oscillate) occurs even though the Dead Band, Stretcher, Boost and other parameters are suitable, adjust this parameter to a value larger than the initial value.

[Relationship between damper set value and servo operation]

Small - When you want to overshoot. Set so that hunting does not occur.

Function

Large - When you want to operate so that braking is not applied. However, it will feel like the servo response has worsened.

Smoother

This function makes servo operation smooth. Set it according to your taste. Normally set it to "ACT". Set it to "INH" when want especially quick operation. When the smoother function was set to "ACT" and the servo was operated the distance up to the target position is changed in steps so movement is smooth.

Stretcher

The servo hold characteristic can be set. The torque which attempts to return the servo to the target position when the current servo position has deviated from the target position can be adjusted.

S.Bus Servo

This is used when stopping hunting, etc., but the holding characteristic changes as shown below.

[Relationship between stretcher and servo operation] Small - Servo holding force becomes weaker. Large - Servo holding force becomes stronger.

(Note)

When this parameter is large, the current consumption increases.

Boost/Boost (ON/OFF)

INH : It is the boost ON at the time of low-speed operation. (In the case of usual)

ACT : It is always the boost ON. (When quick operation is hope).

The minimum current applied to the internal motor when starting the servo can be set. Since a small travel does not start the motor, it essentially feels like the dead band was expanded. The motor can be immediately started by adjusting the minimum current which can start the motor.

[Relationship between boost set value and servo operation] Small - Motor reacts to a minute current and operation becomes smooth. Large - Initial response improves and output torque increases. However, if the torque is too large, operation will be-

come rough.

Channel

This is the S.BUS system channel assigned to the servo. When connected to the receiver S-BUS2 connector as an S.BUS system, the channel used by the transmitter is assigned. When the normal receiver channel is used, channel setting is unnecessary.

Reverse

The direction in which the servo rotates can be changed.

Soft Start

Restricts operation in the speciﬁed direction the instant the power is turned on. By using this setting, the ﬁrst initial movement when the power is turned on slowly moves the servo to the speciﬁed position.

Neutral

The neutral position can be changed. When the neutral offset is large value, the servo’s range of travel is restricted on one side.

Stop Mode

The state of the servo when the servo input signal is lost can be speciﬁed. The “Hold” mode setting holds the servo in its last commanded position even if using AM or FM system.

Speed

Speeds can be matched by specifying the operating speed. The speed of multiple servos can be matched without being affected by motor ﬂuctuations. This is effective for load torques below the maximum torque.

However, note that the maximum speed will not be exceed what the servo is capable of even if the servos operating voltage is increased.

Function

Travel [Left] / [Right]

The maximum left and right travels centered about the neutral position can be set independently.

"min" which sets the frequency when the load is small, is set to the high frequency side (large value) when extension is desired after straightaways and curves.

"max" which sets the frequency when the load is large, is set to the high frequency side (large value) when you want to suppress the rise from low speed and when motor heating and commutator roughness are sensed.

When the rise from low speed is poor, and becomes bad even when "max" is set to the low frequency side, use the log data to check if there was a momentary voltage drop. When you want to suppress the overall power, lengthen the run time, and otherwise improve efﬁ ciency, set both "max" and "min" to the high frequency side.

Telemetry System

Telemetry

It is necessary to turn on the telemetry on the receiver setting screen to use the telemetry function. (pace 52) This screen displays and sets the various information from the receiver. An alarm and vibration can be generated depending on the information. The alarm and the vibration are set by each information screen. For example, a drop in the voltage of the receiver battery housed in the model car can be reported by an alarm. The telemetry data received last is memorized. Therefore, even if the receiver power is turned off, information display, audio guide, and alarms remain until the transmitter power is turned off. The speech function can be turned on and off with the speci¿ ed switch. See the switch select function (page 69).

Telemetry :GPS

When SBS-01G/02G (GPS sensor) sold separately is mounted on the car body, you can receive radio waves from GPS satellites and display information on the position and speed of the car.

* A GPS sensor must be installed in the model car. Install and connect the sensor in accordance with the

sensor instruction manual.

* When powered up, the SBS-01/02G begins to acquire GPS satellite data. This process can take several

minutes. Please do not move the model during this process. During acquisition, the LED on the SBS01/02G will blink green; after the satellite’s signals have been acquired, the LED will become solid green, and the GPS signal strength display on the transmitter will show three bars.

Moving the model before the satellites are fully acquired will cause a delay in acquiring the satellite signal.

* Since GPS satellites are basically used, accurate distances and speeds may not be displayed depending

on the surrounding environment or the conditions of the course.

Sensor List

This menu registers the telemetry sensors used with the transmitter. When only one of a certain type of sensor is used, this setting is unnecessary and the sensor can be used by simply connecting it to the S.BUS2 port of the transmitter.

When using 2 or more of the same kind of sensor, they must be registered here.

What is a slot?

Servos are classi¿ ed by CH, but sensors are classi¿ ed in units called "slot". There are slots from No. 1 to No. 31. Using a sensor which uses two or more slots, the required number of slots is automatically assigned by setting up a start slot. When 2 or more of the same kind of sensor are used, the sensors themselves must allocate unused slots and memorize that slot.

Battery

With the T7PX, the low battery alarm setting is different, depending on the type of battery. Therefore, always set the battery type matched to the power supply to be used. When using a Futaba rechargeable type battery, always select "LiFe 2 cells" or "NiMH 5 cells". Incorrect setting will substantially shorten the time from low battery alarm to system stopping and is very dangerous.

Exceptionally, when using a battery other than this, select "Other" and set the low battery alarm voltage on your own responsibility. Futaba is not responsible for trouble caused by use of an unspeci¿ed battery.
