: Mandatory 2.4GHz System Precautions Warning Special attention should be paid before turning on the system while other cars are running or oth-

er airplanes are ying because the 2.4GHz RC system could potentially affect them. Be sure to set the Fail Safe function. Receiver Mode Precautions Caution When using the T4PV in the T-FHSS (HIGH) and S-FHSS (HIGH) mode, always use it under the following conditions:

:Futaba digital servo (including BLS Series brushless servos) Servos Receivers battery :Matched to the ratings of the receiver and connected digital servo (dry cell battery cannot be used). Transmitter mode :RX MODE (See p.33-34 for setting method.) Under other conditions, the set will not operate, or the specied performance will not be displayed even if it operates. In addition, it may cause servo trouble. Futaba will not be responsible for damage, etc. caused by combination with the prod-

ucts of other companies. In addition, the FSU Fail Safe Unit cannot be used because the system is different. Use the fail safe function of the trans-

mitter. When using analog servos, always switch the T4PV servo response to the "NORM" mode. Transmitter mode:"T-FHSS (NORM)" and "S-FHSS (NORM)" mode (See p.33-34 for setting method.) Receivers battery :Matched to the ratings of the receiver and connected servo (dry cell battery cannot be used). The set cannot operate in the "HIGH" mode. Operation in this mode will cause trouble with the servo and other equipment. Digital servos (including BLS Series brushless servos) can also be used in the "NORM" mode. F o r Y o u r S a f e t y A s W e l l A s T h a t O f O t h e r s 8 4PV-Eng-03-Safety-P8-11.indd 8 2016/07/28 10:05:15 s r e h t O f O t a h T s A l l e W s A y t e f a S r u o Y r o F Operation Precautions Warning Do not operate outdoors on rainy days, run through puddles of water or use when visibility is limited. Should any type of moisture (water or snow) enter any component of the system, erratic operation and loss of control may occur. Do not operate in the following places.

-Near other sites where other radio control activity may occur.

-Near people or roads.

-On any pond when passenger boats are present.

-Near high tension power lines or communication broadcasting antennas. Interference could cause loss of control. Improper installation of your Radio Control System in your model could result in serious injury. Do not operate this R/C system when you are tired, not feeling well or under the inuence of alco-

hol or drugs. Your judgment is impaired and could result in a dangerous situation that may cause serious injury to yourself as well as others. Do not touch the engine, motor, speed control or any part of the model that will generate heat while the model is operating or immediately after its use. These parts may be very hot and can cause serious burns. Always perform an operating range check prior to use. Problems with the radio control system as well as improper installation in a model could cause loss of control.

(Simple range test method) Have a friend hold the model, or clamp it down or place it where the wheels or prop cannot come in contact with any ob-

ject. Walk away and check to see if the servos follow the movement of the controls on the transmitter. Should you notice any abnormal operation, do not operate the model. Also check to be sure the model memory matches the model in use. Turning on the power switches. Always check the throttle trigger on the transmitter to be sure it is at the neutral position. 1. Turn on the transmitter power switch. 2. Turn on the receiver or speed control power switch. Turning off the power switches Always be sure the engine is not running or the motor is stopped. 1. Turn off the receiver or speed control power switch. 2. Then turn off the transmitter power switch. If the power switches are turned off in the opposite order, the model may unexpectedly run out of control and cause a very dangerous situation. When making adjustments to the model, do so with the engine not running or the motor discon-

nected. You may unexpectedly lose control and create a dangerous situation. Before running (cruising), check the fail safe function. Check Method; Before starting the engine, check the fail safe function as follows:

1) Turn on the transmitter and receiver power switches. 2) Wait at least one minute, then turn off the transmitter power switch. (The transmitter automatically transfers the fail safe data to the receiver every minute.) 3) Check if the fail safe function moves the servos to the preset position when reception fails. The fail safe function is a safety feature that minimizes set damage by moving the servos to a preset position when reception fails. However, if set to a dangerous position, it has the opposite effect. When the reverse function was used to change the operating direction of a servo, the fail safe function must be reset.

(Only when NiMH/NiCd /LiFe batteries are used) Warning Never plug the charger into an outlet of other than the indicated voltage. Plugging the charger into the wrong outlet could result in an explosion or re. Never insert or remove the charger while your hands are wet. You may get an electric shock. Do not use the T4PV transmitter's battery as the receiver's battery. Since the transmitter's battery has an overload protection circuit, the output power will be shut down when the high current load is applied. This may result in runaway or fatal crash. Always check to be sure your batteries have been charged prior to operating the model. Should the battery go dead while the model is operating, loss of control will occur and create a very dangerous situation. To recharge the transmitter battery, use the special charger made for this purpose. Overcharging could cause the battery to overheat, leak or explode. This may lead to re, burns, loss of sight and many other types of injuries. Caution Do not use commercial AA size NiCd and NiMH batteries. Quick charging may cause the battery contacts to overheat and damage the battery holder. Do not short circuit the battery terminals. A short circuit across the battery terminals may cause abnormal heating, re and burns. Do not drop the battery or expose it to strong shocks or vibrations. The battery may short circuit and overheat; electrolyte may leak out and cause burns or chemical damage. When the model is not being used, always remove or disconnect the battery. Leaving the battery connected could create a dangerous situation if someone accidentally turns on the receiver power switch. Loss of control could occur. Always keep the charger disconnected from the outlet while it is not in use. Storage And Disposal Precautions Warning Do not leave the radio system or models within the reach of small children. A small child may accidentally operate the system. This could cause a dangerous situation and injuries. NiCd batteries can be very dangerous when mishandled and cause chemical damage. Do not throw NiMH/NiCd/LiFe batteries into a re. Do not expose batteries to extreme heat. Also do not disassemble or modify a battery pack. Overheating and breakage will cause the electrolyte to leak from the cells and cause skin burns, loss of sight, and other in-

juries. F o r Y o u r S a f e t y A s W e l l A s T h a t O f O t h e r s 10 4PV-Eng-03-Safety-P8-11.indd 10 2016/07/28 10:05:16 s r e h t O f O t a h T s A l l e W s A y t e f a S r u o Y r o F When the system will not be used for any length of time, store the system with NiMH/NiCd batteries in a discharged state. Be sure to recharge the batteries prior to the next time the system is used. If the batteries are repeatedly recharged in a slightly discharged state, the memory effect of the NiMH/NiCd battery may considerably reduce the capacity . A reduction in operating time will occur even when the batteries are charged for the rec-

ommended time. (After discharge to 1cell E.V.=1V) When a LiFe battery pack will not be used for a long time, to prevent it from deteriorating we rec-

ommend that it be kept in about the half capacity state instead of fully charged. Also be careful that the battery does not enter the over-discharged state due to self-discharge. Periodically (about every 3 months) charge the battery.

<NiMH/NiCd Battery Electrolyte>

The electrolyte in NiCd/NiMH batteries is a strong alkali. Should you get even the smallest amount of the electrolyte in your eyes, DO NOT RUB. Wash immediately with water, and seek medical attention at once. The electrolyte can cause blindness. If electrolyte comes in contact with your skin or clothes, wash with water immediately. Warning Do not store your R/C system in the following places.

- Where it is extremely hot or cold.

- Where the system will be exposed to direct sunlight.

- Where the humidity is high.

- Where vibration is prevalent.

- Where dust is prevalent.

- Where the system would be exposed to steam and condensation. Storing your R/C system under adverse conditions could cause deformation and numerous problems with operation. If the system will not be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the transmitter and model and store in a cool, dry place. If the batteries are left in the transmitter, electrolyte may leak and damage the transmitter. This applies to the model also. Remove the batteries from it also to prevent damage.

<NiMH/NiCd/LiFe Battery Recycling>

A used battery is a valuable resource. Insulate the battery terminals and dispose of the battery by taking it to a battery recycling center. Other Precautions Caution Do not expose plastic parts to fuel, motor spray, waste oil or exhaust. The fuel, motor spray, waste oil and exhaust will penetrate and damage the plastic. Always use only genuine Futaba transmitters, receivers, servos, ESCs (electronic speed controls), NiMH/NiCd/LiFe batteries and other optional accessories. Futaba will not be responsible for problems caused by the use of other than genuine Futaba parts. Use the parts specied in the instruction manual and catalog. 4PV-Eng-03-Safety-P8-11.indd 11 2016/07/28 10:05:16 11 B e f o r e U s n g i Before Using Features

-Telemetry system The T4PV transmitter has adopted the newly developed bidirectional communication system "T-

FHSS".

-2.4GHzSS (Spread Spectrum) radio communication system Frequency channel setting is unnecessary: Channel shifting takes place within the 2.4GHz band automatically. This system minimizes the interference from other 2.4GHz systems.

-Display switch Display switch allows function setup without transmitting.

-Model memory for 40 models Model names can use up to 10 letters, numbers, and symbols, so that logical names may be used. A model memory with different setups can be created by using the model copy function.

-4 axis Jog button. The (JOG) button can be operated in 4 directions: up, down, left, and right.

-ESC-Link function (MC-LINK) This dedicated function allows you set up the Link software so that your T4PV can control vari-

able frequency and other data changes in Futaba speed controllers (ESCs): MC950CR, MC850C, MC851C, MC602C, MC402CR, etc.

-S.BUS servo This is a special function that allows setting of the parameters of our S.BUS servo whose set-

tings are changed by using PC Link software.

-Steering mixing Smooth cornering is possible by independent left and right steering servo setting.

-Brake mixing for large cars (BRAKE) Brake mixing of the front and rear wheels of 1/5 GP and other large cars can be adjusted inde-

pendently.

-Gyro mixing (GYRO MIX) The sensitivity of Futaba car rate gyros can be adjusted from the T4PV.

-4WS mixing for crawlers and other 4WS type (4WS) This function can be used with crawlers and other 4WS type vehicles. 12 4PV-Eng-04-Before-P12-28.indd 12 2016/08/02 9:06:07 i g n s U e r o f e B

-Dual ESCs mixing for crawlers cars (DUAL ESC) ESCs at the front and rear are controlled independently.

-CPS-1 mixing (CPS MIX)

steering and throttle operation by switch only.

-Anti-skid braking system (TH A.B.S) This function applies the brakes so that the tires of GP cars, etc. do not lose their grip on the road even when braking at corners.

-Throttle acceleration (ACCEL) GP cars have a time lag before the clutch and brakes become effective. The throttle acceleration function reduces this time lag.

-Throttle speed (SPEED) Sudden trigger operation on a slippery road surface will only cause the tires to spin and the model to not accelerate smoothly. By setting the throttle speed function, operation can be per-

formed smoothly and easily. It also suppresses battery consumption.

-Steering speed (SPEED) When you sense that the steering servo is too fast, etc., the servo operating speed (direction that suppresses the maximum speed) can be adjusted.

-Racing timer (TIMER) The lap timer can record 100 lap times and total time. The timer can also be started automati-

cally by trigger operation. The race time and audible alarm can be set. Re-/fueling time are indicated by an audible alarm. An up timer is also provided.

-Function select switch (SWITCH)/ dial function (TRIM DIAL) This assigns functions to 2 switches and dials (digital trim, digital dial). The step amount and operating direction can also be adjusted. Trim positioning at each model call is unnecessary because all the dials are digital.

-Trigger position can be changed The position of the throttle trigger can be moved forward and backward.

-Tension adjustment function The tension of the steering wheel throttle trigger springs can be adjusted from the outside.

-Mechanical ATL Adjustment Make this adjustment when you want to decrease the total travel of the brake (push) side of the throttle trigger. 4PV-Eng-04-Before-P12-28.indd 13 2016/08/02 9:06:07 13 B e f o r e U s n g i Set Contents

ing it in the direction of the arrow in the gure. 2 Remove the used batteries. Caution If you remove the dry cell battery box from the trans-

mitter, replace it carefully with the wiring on the same side as before. Reinstalling the battery box in the opposite direction could cause the wires to be disconnected. 3 Load the new AA size batteries. Pay very close atten-

tion to the polarity markings and reinsert accordingly. Battery cover Slide battery cover while pressing here. 4 Slide the battery cover back onto the case. Check:

Disposal of the Dry Cell Batteries:

Turn the power switch on the transmitter to the ON po-

sition. Check the battery voltage display on the LCD screen. If the voltage is low, check the batteries for insuf-

The method to dispose of used dry cell batteries de-

pends on the area in which you reside. Dispose of the batteries in accordance with the regulations for your area. Caution Never try to recharge a dry cell battery. The transmitter may be damaged or the battery electrolyte may leak or the battery may break. Insert the batteries in the correct polarity. If the polarity is incorrect, the transmitter may be damaged. When the transmitter is not in use, remove the batteries. If the battery electrolyte leaks, wipe off the case and contacts. Do not use commercial AA size NiCd and NiMH batteries. Quick charging may cause the battery contacts to overheat and damage the battery holder. Low Battery Alarm If the transmitter battery voltage drops below the usable range, an audible alarm will sound and "

" mark will be displayed on the LCD screen. (For details, see page 130.) Because the low battery alarm voltage of a dry cell battery is different from that of a rechargeable battery pack (genuine Futaba option), the type of power source used must be selected using the system setting (page 123). Warning When a low battery alarm is generated, cease operation immediately and retrieve the model. If the battery goes dead while in operation, you will lose control of the model. 16 4PV-Eng-04-Before-P12-28.indd 16 2016/08/02 9:06:08 When Using The Optional Battery When using an optional rechargeable battery, replace the battery as described below.

-Always use the optional FT2F1700B , FT2F2100B or HT5F-1800B rechargeable battery.

-The type of power source used must be selected through the system setting (page 123).

-When the transmitter will not be used for a long time, remove the battery. Battery Replacement Method 1 Refer to the previous description and remove the transmitter battery cover. Battery cover Slide battery cover while pressing here. 2 After removing the dry cell battery box from the transmitter, disconnect the connector. Caution If you remove the dry cell battery box from the trans-

mitter, replace it carefully with the wiring on the same side as before. Reinstalling the battery box in the op-

posite direction could cause the wires to be discon-

(Example: When using the HT5F1800B with the special charger) 1 Plug the transmitter cord of the special charger into the charging jack on the rear of the transmitter. 2 Plug the charger into an AC outlet. 3 Check that the charging LED lights. The charging time when charging the HT5F1800B battery with the optional special charger is approximately 15 hours. However, when the battery has not been used for some time, repeat charging 2 or 3 times to activate the battery. Over current protection The transmitter charging circuit is equipped with an over cur-

rent protection circuit (1.0A). If the battery is charged with a quick charger for other than digital proportional R/C sets, it may not be fully charged. B e f o r e U s n g i Charging A LiFe Battery

(Example: When using the FT2F1700B/2100B with the special charger) 1 Remove the battery cover. 2 Disconnect the battery from the T4PV. 3 Balance charging cannot be done through the transmitter. You must remove the LiFe battery to do this charge. LiFe battery is removed from transmitter. AC outlet Charger Transmitter charging LED To receiver NiCd battery To transmitter charging jack Charging jack Charge the optional FT2F1700B/2100B (LiFe) battery with the special charger in accordance with the instruction manual supplied. When the LiFe battery will not be used for a long time, to prevent it from deteriorating we recom-

mend that it be kept in about the half capacity state instead of fully charged. Also be careful that the battery does not enter the overdischarged state due to self-discharge. Periodically (about every 3 months) charge the battery. In addition, always remove the battery from the model and store it in a dry, cool place (15C 25C). Balance charging connector for LiFe battery charger. Warning Make sure not to peel off the battery lm, or make any scratch by a cutter knife or the sharp edges of metal components. Make sure not to soak or get the battery wet with water or seawater. Make sure not to use a deformed or swollen battery. There is a risk of explosion or re, which is very dangerous. 18 4PV-Eng-04-Before-P12-28.indd 18 2016/08/02 9:06:09 i g n s U e r o f e B Warning Never plug it into an outlet having other than the indicated voltage. Plugging the charger into the wrong outlet could result in an explosion or re. Do not insert and remove the charger when your hands are wet. It may cause an electric shock. Always use the special charger or a quick charger for digital proportional R/C sets to charge a digital proportional R/C set battery. Overcharging a NiMH battery can result in burns, re, injuries, or loss of sight due to overheating, breakage, or electrolyte leakage. Caution Do not plug the charger to the charging jack, if the battery is not connected to the transmitter. The transmitter may be damaged. When the charger is not in use, disconnect it from the AC outlet. Do this to prevent accidents and to avoid overheating. Power & Display Switch The power switch and display switch are push switches.

Other Noise Suppression Methods Be sure there are no metal parts in your model which under vibration can come in contact with other metal parts. Metal to metal contacts under vibration will emit a high frequency noise that will affect the receiver's performance. You could experience erratic operation and reduced range as well as loss of control.

(Display when power switch turned on) When the power switch is turned on, the currently selected model number is displayed. Check if this number is the model number you want to set-up. To change the model number, use the Model Select function (page 46). Turn on the transmitter power. The model number is displayed. Voltage check Receiver type check The telemetry ON/OFF and communication status checked.

(HOME screen) Receiver Type Check (RX MODE) This mode sets the RX type of the transmitter to match the receiver and servos used. The T4PV transmitter uses the telemetry type T-FHSS ("TFH") system. It can also use the conventional S-FHSS ("SFH") system. Because the R304SB receiver sup-

plied with the T4PV uses the telemetry type T-FHSS ("TFH") system, its RX type must be set to the T-FHSS high speed mode ("TFH-HI") or the T-FHSS normal mode ("TFH-NR"). Never use analog servos when the RX type was set to the T-FHSS ("TFH") 2.4GHz system high speed mode "TFH-HI" or the S-FHSS ("SFH") high speed mode "SFH-HI". The servos may be damaged. For example, if analog servos are used with a telemetry type T-FHSS re-

ceiver (R304SB, etc.), the RX type must be set to "TFH-NR", and if analog servos are used with an S-FHSS receiver (R2104GF, R204FG-E, etc.), the RX type must be set to S-FHSS

("SFH-NR") system normal mode system. When using digital servos (including BLS Series brushless servos), any RX type can be used. p U

and "COMPLETE!" appear on the screen. Reading of the mu-

tual IDs ends and the memorized receiver ID number appears on T4PV screen. If an error screen appears, linking failed. Retry linking. If the transmitter and receiver are linked normally, set the power switch to the OFF position and then return it to the PWR ON position. If the re-

ceiver LED lights green, linking was successful. Now check servo operation.

*The T4PV and a telemetry type T-FHSS receiver (R304SB, etc.) mutually memorize the combined ID linked last at each model memory. Since the T4PV can memorize only 1 receiver ID at each model memory, multiple T-FHSS receivers cannot be used with the same model memory. When changing the receiver at the same model memory, re-link the previously linked receiver. When using multiple telemetry type T-FHSS receivers, link and combine them with each T4PV model memory. However, multiple receivers cannot be linked to multiple model memories. The telemetry function communications status can be checked at the HOME screen. p U

I n i t i a l When the link is complete, the LED in the receiver changes to solid green. Precaution:

If there are many Futaba 2.4GHz systems (T-FHSS/ S-FHSS) turned on in close proximity to your receiver might not link to your transmitter. In this case, even if the receivers LED stays solid green, unfortunately the receiver might have established a link to one of other transmitters. This is very dangerous if you do not notice this situation. In order to avoid the problem, we strongly recommend you to double-check whether your receiver is really under control by your transmitter by giving the stick input and then checking the servo response.

- Correct the maximum steering angle for left and right steering angles when there is a difference in the turning radius due to the characteristics of the vehicle.

(All channel) Maximum steering angle The EPA function basically determines the maximum steering angle of each channel. The functions shown below may have been adjusted or the operating range set by EPA function may be exceeded. Check the linkage each time the following functions are adjust-

ed.

- Sub trim (all channels) .................................. P51

- Program mixing slave side (all channels) ..... P78

- Idle up (throttle) ............................................ P89

- Throttle off, Engine Cut (throttle)................. P91

- Throttle acceleration (throttle) ...................... P63 ATL trim ATL trim allows adjustment of the brake side operation amount during operation. Therefore, when the operating angle is adjusted with throttle EPA, ATL trim must also be taken into account. Warning Operate each servo over its full stroke and be sure the linkage does not bind or is not loose. The continuous application of unreasonable force to a servo may cause damage and excessive battery drain. Caution!

A whining noise indicates that the steering servo is improperly set. Decide the EPA value at the contact point. Adjust the steering servo so that unreason-

able force is not applied to the servo by the chassis at maximum servo travel. Adjust the throttle servo so that unreasonable force is not applied when the engine carburetor is ful-

ly open, fully closed, and the brakes are applied fully. If the brakes overheat while running, their ability to function properly decreases. Before running, adjust the suitable maximum servo travel so that unreasonable force is not applied even when the servo travel is increased while running. End Point Adjuster "END POINT"

Fail Safe Mode (F/S) This function moves each servo to a preset position when the receiver cannot receive the signals from the transmitter for some reason.

(All channel)

-The fail safe data is transferred from the transmitter to the receiver 10 seconds after the transmitter power was turned on. The

ceiver power is turned on next and the data is transferred for approximately 10 seconds after the receiver power is turned on.

-For GP cars, for safety we recommend that this fail safe function be used to set the throttle channel in the direction in which the brakes are applied. Hold mode (HOLD) This function holds the receiver in its position immediately before reception was lost. It is the T-FHSS type (R304SB...etc) and the S-FHSS type (R2104GF...etc) receiver only func-

tion. Off mode (OFF) This function stops output of signals to the servos and places the servos into the free state when the receiver cannot receive. The F/S, HOLD, and OFF modes are automatically reset when signals from the transmitter can be received again. Battery fail safe function (B-FS) If the receiver battery voltage drops below a certain value when this function is enabled, the throttle servo moves to the position set by fail safe function. When the battery voltage re-

covers, the battery fail safe function is automatically reset.

BRAKE Set value The standard value (100 point) of this setup affects the operation amount set by throttle EPA function. Convenient usage method For nitro powered cars, the linkage must have a clearance because one servo controls the engine carburetor and brake. Thus, there is a noticeable time delay at both the forward and brake sides. Sharp response comparable to that of electric mo-

tor cars is obtained by reducing this clearance at the transmitter side. Clearance Caburetor Servo horn Brake side Display to "TH ACCEL" screen using the following method:

This is a special function which allows Futaba S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo parameter changes to be set by the T4PV transmitter. However, some data changes require a PC and S-Link software. This function is used by connecting Futaba S.BUS/S.BUS2 servos directly to the trans-

mitter. Use the various optional servo extension cords according to the distance between the transmitter and servo.

-When the T4PV battery voltage drops, the display switches to low battery display. Therefore, use this function when there is am-

ple battery capacity remaining.

- Connect the T4PV and S.BUS or S.BUS2 servo in accordance with the connection diagram shown on page 93.

- Connect the battery to S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo. 1 Display the SX LINK function screen referring on page 93. 2 (S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo read) Execute this function to read the connected servos ID and the data currently set at the servo. Select the setting item "MODE" by moving the(JOG) button up or down. Select "READ" by (+) or (-) button, and press the (JOG) button.

-"COMPLETE!" blinks on the screen and the servo ID and currently set contents are read.

- If "COM-ERROR" blinks on the screen, communication with the servo is not being performed normally. Check the T4PV and servo connection and the battery connection to servo and repeat READ. 3 (Writing to S.BUS/S.BUS2) Execute this function to write the setting data to the servo. See pages 95~96 for the setting data contents. Select the setting item "MODE" by moving the (JOG) button up or down. Select "WRITE" by (+) or (-) button, and press the

(JOG) button.

-"COMPLETE!" blinks on the screen and the setting data is written to the servo.

-If "COM-ERROR" blinks on the screen, communication with the servo is not being performed normally. Check the T4PV and servo connection and the battery connection to ESC and the ESC power switch and repeat WRITE. In addition, if (NO DATA) is dis-

played on the T4PV screen, "WRITE" cannot be selected because there is no setting data to be written. 4 (Initialization) This function writes the servo setting data set at the factory to the connected servo. Perform "READ" before performing initial-

ization. Select the setting item "MODE" by moving the (JOG) button up or down. Select "RESET" by (+) or (-) button, and press the

(JOG) button.

- "COMPLETE!" blinks on the screen and the initial data is written to the servo. If

"COM-ERROR" blinks, communication with the servo was not performed normally. Check the T4PV and servo connection and the battery connection to servo, and repeat RESET, when (NO DATA) is displayed on the T4PV screen "RESET" cannot be se-

F u n c t i o n 94 4PV-Eng-08-3-Function-P93-128.indd 94 2016/08/05 10:13:18 Setup item selection

- Select by the (JOG) button. Adjustment buttons

- Use the (+) and (-) buttons to make adjustments.

- Return to the initial value by pressing the (+) and (-) buttons simultaneously (approx. 1 sec). Servo function setup 1 Select the setting item by moving the (JOG) button. Set the value by (+) and (-) button. The servo ID The item indicated by the reverse displayed cursor is selected. Setup item ID Displays the ID of the servo whose parameters are to be read. It cannot be changed. SMOT (Smoother) This function makes servo operation smooth. Set it according to your taste. Normally set it to "ACT". Set it to "INH" when you want especially quick operation. When the smoother function is set to "ACT" and the servo is operated, the distance up to the target position is changed in steps so movement is smooth. DEAD (Dead band) The dead band angle at stopping can be speci ed.

[Relationship between dead band set value and servo operation]

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) If the dead band angle is too small, the servo will operate continu-

ously and the current consumption will increase and the life of the servo will be shortened. DAMP (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, depend-

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

(Note) If used in the hunting state, not only will the current consumption increase, but the life of the servo will also be shortened. S.BUS Link Function "SX LINK"

n o i t c n u F 95 4PV-Eng-08-3-Function-P93-128.indd 95 2016/08/05 10:13:18 STRE (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. 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. BSTM (Boost/-N/OFF) OFF : It is the boost ON at the time of low-speed operation.

(In the case of usual) ON : It is always the boost ON. (When quick operation is hope). BOST (Boost) 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 become rough. CHAN (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. NEUT (Neutral) The neutral position can be changed. When the neutral offset is large val-

ue, the servos range of travel is restricted on one side. EPAL (Travel-left side) The maximum left travels centered about the neutral position can be set independently. EPAR (Travel-right side) The maximum right travels centered about the neutral position can be set independently. REVE (Reverse) The direction in which the servo rotates can be changed.

F u n c t i o n 96 4PV-Eng-08-3-Function-P93-128.indd 96 2016/08/05 10:13:18 ESC Link Function "MC LINK"

This is a special function which lets you set the contents of the Link software which performs Futaba electronic motor speed controller (ESC), MC960CR, MC940CR, MC-

950CR, MC851C, MC602C, MC402CR, etc. variable frequency and other data changes at the T4PV transmitter. However, some data changes require a PC and Link software. This function is used by connecting the ESC directly to the transmitter. The T4PV power switch is used at the display side. Use the various optional servo extension cords according to the distance between the transmitter and ESC. The last data read from ESC to T4PV or the last data written from T4PV to ESC is saved to the T4PV. Since the data for each model memory can be saved, the data of up to 40 models can be saved.

-When the T4PV battery voltage drops, the display switches to low battery display. Therefore, use this function when there is am-

ple battery capacity remaining.

-Also connect the battery at the ESC side.

Setup item MC950CR:500Hz~30000Hz (30kHz) MIn-(PWM FREC MIN LD) 100Hz~10000Hz (10kHz) Same as Link software PWM frequency (at Min. load). MIn sets the "0"A PWM frequency at minimum load. MC950CR:500Hz~30000Hz (30kHz) MAX-(PWM FREC MAX LD) 100Hz~10000Hz (10kHz) Same as Link software PWM frequency (at Max. load). MAX sets the PWM frequency at maximum load at the output cur-

rent limit value set by Current Limiter. MC950CR:500Hz~30000Hz (30kHz) BRK-(PWM FREC BRK LD) nOR(2000Hz)/ HIG(1000Hz)/ SPH(500Hz) Same as Link software Brake PWM at frequency. This setting can set the brake PWM frequency. nTB-(NEUTRAL BRAKE) 0%(OFF)~100%

Same as Link software Neutral Brake. Make this setting when you want to use the brakes at the neutral throttle (OFF) position by throttle operation. The larger this value, the greater the braking force. When you want to use the neutral brake, set this value to "0%". CLM-(CURRENT LIMIT) 50A~300A (MC950CR:50A~300A), OFF Same as Link software Current Limiter. Current Limiter sets the current value at maximum load here. Since setting of the MAX is based on the output current limit value set by Current Limiter, Current Limiter does not have to be turned OFF except when a current exceeding 300A is generated.

"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 ef -

ciency, set both "MAX" and "MIn" to the high frequency side. When you want to set a xed PWM frequency at full range regardless of the load current, set PWM frequency (at Max. load) and PWM frequency (at Min. load) to the same value. ESC Link Function "MC LINK"

age to prevent the receiver from stopping operation when the supply of voltage to the receiver becomes insuf cient while running due to a drop in the power supply voltage. When the power supply voltage re-

covers, power is supplied to the motor once more. DBA-(DEAD BAND) 2s~50s Same as Link software Dead Band. This sets the range (neutral point range) over which the ESC does not respond to transmitter throttle operation. The larger the set value, the wider this range.

ning. This is effective in preventing the motor from outputting wasted energy when the voltage is high immediately after the power battery was recharged.

- "CTM" (Time Limit) sets the maximum output current within the time the out-

put current is limited.

- "CLT" sets the time the output current is limited. This function is disabled when set to "0" sec. Since the Current Limit Timer starts when the throttle is operated to the for-

ward side and current is output to the motor, this function begins to operate when the motor is run during trim adjustment, etc. FWB-(FORWARD BOOST) 0~100 (except MC850C) Same as Link software Forward Boost. Operation near the throttle trigger (stick) neu-

More power can be displayed by using the turbo mode. Depending on the setting, the motor and ESC may be damaged so make this setting carefully.

(Note) When LAU (LEAD ANGLE USE) is off, lead angle setting will not operate even if set to LEV1 or LEV2.

(Turbo mode disabled, TBM=OFF) OFF mode: (No Lead Angle mode) Lead angle - No When used in races in which the lead angle setting function is inhibited by ESC, set to this mode. The lead angle function is disabled the same as if LAU (LEAD ANGLE USE) was turned off. When the lead angle function was disabled by the method described above, the MC960CR shows that the lead angle function is off by blinking a blue LED at an ON 0.1 second, OFF 0.9 second cycle at the neutral point. LV1 turbo mode: (Lead Angle mode) Lead angle Yes The output can be increased by setting a lead angle. Depending on the set value, the motor may be damaged so increase the lead angle value in steps from a small value while observing the conditions. Turn on LAU (Lead Angle Use) and adjust the lead angle by LA-(LEAD ANGLE) and A, B, C, D, E BA-(A, B, C, D, E BOOST ANGLE) value. LV2 power mode: (Power Mode) Lead angle Yes Displays still more power than a turbo. However, since even a motor applies a large load on the ESC, make the lead angle larger in steps from a small value while observing the conditions.

The lead angle can be set up to 59 degrees in 1 degree increments. Note: Do not read to the T4PV an MC940/960CR whose speed was set to over 99990rpm by Link software side Boost Angle rpm setting. Page 2 The LA-(LEAD ANGLE) and A, B, C, D, E BA- (A, B, C, D, E BOOST ANGLE) relationship is shown on the graphs below. Graph [A] shows the relationship when the same value is set at points A, B, C, D, E BA-

(A, B, C, D, E BOOST ANGLE) of [A] and [B] and the LA-(LEAD ANGLE) is set to "0". Graph [B] shows the relationship when a value other than "0" is set at LA-(LEAD ANGLE). As shown in the graphs, [B] is added to the A, B, C, D, E BA-(A, B, C, D, E BOOST ANGLE) set lead an-

gle and [A] is added to the LA-(LEAD ANGLE) set lead angle. For example, if "3" is set at ABA and LA of [B]

is set to "2", the actual ABA becomes 3+2=5 (deg). Since LA of [A] is "0", the actual ABA also becomes 3+0=3 (deg).

With the telemetry system, the running status can be displayed at the transmitter and also recorded as a data log by mounting various sensor units to the chassis. The T4PV displays four kinds of information on the HOME screen; receiver power source

(battery) voltage, external power supply (drive battery) voltage, speed, and temperature.

* The telemetry function is compatible with only the T-FHSS system.

* The telemetry function requires a corresponding receiver. (R304SB)

* Only T4PV with R304SB ID registered have a telemetry display.

* Multiple sensors of the same type cannot be used.

(HOME screen) The sensor data can be checked at the transmitter by connecting the telemetry sensor sold separately to the S.BUS2 connector of the R304SB receiver.

sor. The data of 3 types of sensors and the receiver power supply voltage can be transmitted by using the 3-way extension cord or double extension cord sold separately. The receiver power supply can also be connected to the S.BUS2 connector or each of CH1-

4. A receiver power supply voltage sensor is unnecessary. Telemetry info

*The S.BUS2 system exerts control by connecting multiple gyros, servos and other devices corresponding to one S.BUS2 connector. Each device is separately controlled by setting the channel No. or slot No. individually for each device. A slot No. is also set for telemetry sensors. With the T4PV system, each slot No. of a teleme-

try sensor must be set to its initial value. Since the slot No. can be changed for other aircraft type transmitters (T4PX, etc.), sensors with changed slot No. will not operate if not returned to their initial slot No. When using a sensor that is used with transmitters other than a T4PV, whether or not the slot No. is set to the initial value given in the sensor instruction manual must be checked at the changed transmitter (T4PX, etc.). With the T4PV, the set slot No. cannot be checked or changed. So, essentially, if a sensor has been used in a 4PX, and you want to use the same

work in your 4PV. F u n c t i o n 114 Telemetry "TELEMETRY"

Since the data is sequentially updated, when data logging is performed, the old data is erased. Only one set of data is saved. The interval at which the data is acquired can be selected from a minimum 0.1 second to a maximum 60 seconds. Because the maximum count is 200, if 200 counts are made at 0.1 second intervals, 20 seconds worth of data is acquired. If 200 counts are made at 60 second intervals, 3 hours 20 minutes worth of data is acquired. Data logging is started and stopped by setting PS2 using the select switch function (p.72) to
