KG Postfach 1242 73230 Kirchheim/Teck www.graupner.de Manual V1.0 Revision: August 2012 Thank you for purchasing the receiver GR-12SH+ or SC+ for the Graupner HoTT 2.4 System. Please read through this entire manual before you attempt the installation and usage of your Graupner HoTT 2.4 System!
These operating instructions are part of this product. They contains important notes to the operation and hand-
ling. Please take this into consideration when you pass on the product to third parties. Neglect of the operating instructions and the safety instructions lead to expiring the warranty. Graupner constantly work on the advancement of all remote control systems; changes of the scope of de-
livery in form, technology and equipment we must reserve ourselves therefore. Please have understanding for the fact that from data and illustrations of this operating instructions no requirements can be derived. Please keep these instructions for further reference!
Intended use The receiver is speci cally designed for slow- y models whose components are tted with SH or ZH connec-
tors. The maximum range is around 300 m, which is appropriate to this type of model. The receiver must not be used in any model which requires greater range, or whose servos draw a current which exceeds the maximum permissible for SH connectors (#33565 max. 0.5 A) or ZH connectors (#33566 max. 1 A). This product works with any Graupner HoTT 2.4 GHz transmitter, but with no others. If you do not own a Graupner HoTT 2.4 system, the receiver will not function. This product is not compatible with any other 2.4 GHz radio control system. It is not suitable for young people under fourteen years. If a young person below that age wishes to use it, he or she must be supervised by an adult. Before using the receiver for the rst time, please read and observe all the warnings and safety notes in these instructions and on the packaging. Do not connect servos to this receiver whose current drain exceeds the maximum permissible for WARNINGS SH connectors (#33565 max. 0.5 A) or ZH connectors (#33566 max. 1 A). If channel 1 is used as an electronic speed controller, the continuous current of the motor connec-
ted to it must never exceed 2 A, otherwise the receiver could be ruined!
If several independent models / receivers are operated close together - e.g. for glider towing - the receivers must be kept a minimum of 50 cm apart, otherwise there is a danger of interaction between them. For the same reason the pilots on the ground should stand at least 5 m apart. 1. GENERAL NOTE When switching on or adjusting the radio control system it is essential to keep the transmitter aerial at least 15 cm away from the receiver aerials at all times. If the transmitter aerial is too close to the receiver aerials, the receiver will be overloaded, causing the red LED starts ashing. The transmitter responds by emitting a beep once every second; the red LED also goes out. The radio control system is now in Fail-Safe mode. If this should occur, simply increase the distance between the aerials until the audible warning signal ceases, and the red LED on the transmitter lights up again; at the same time the red LED on the receiver should go out. 2. FUNCTIONS 2.1. Binding When you wish to use the Graupner HoTT 2.4 GHz receiver with a particular transmitter, the rst step must always be to bind the unit to its Graupner HoTT 2.4 GHz RF module (transmitter). This binding procedure only needs to be carried out once for each combination of receiver and RF module. The units supplied in the set are already bound to each other at the factory, i.e. the binding procedure described in the following section only needs to be carried out when you wish to use an additional receiver. However, it can also be repeated at any time if required, e.g. after changing transmitters. Please refer to the BINDING section in your RC system or module instructions for the procedure. When binding is required, this is the procedure:
Switch the transmitter and receiver on. Unless the receiver has already been bound to the transmitter, it automatically enters BIND mode when initially switched on. If you have already completed the binding procedure for this combination of transmitter and receiver, the red LED on the receiver goes out, and the model can be operated immediately. If the LED does not go out, please follow this procedure:
Transmitter with HoTT module: locate the BIND / RANGE button on the back of the transmitter, and hold it pressed in while you press and hold the SET button on the receiver. Both LEDs on the back of the trans-

Now start the so-called receiver binding process for the receiver to the currently active model memory by brie y pressing the center SET button of the right touch pad. At this time the screens display will begin to indicate the duration of the bond. If the red LED of the receiver expires within about ten seconds, this indicates that the binding process is complete. You can now release both buttons, and your transmitter / receiver combination is ready for use. However, if the red LED on the receiver continues to ash for longer than ten seconds, then the binding process has failed. If this should occur, repeat the whole procedure. 2.2. Fail-Safe function The receiver supports all transmitter-side fail-safe settings. You can exploit the safety potential of the fail-safe option by at least programming the throttle channel to respond to a fail-safe situation: the throttle channel of an engine-powered model should be set to idle, the throttle channel of an electric-powered model to stop, and the throttle channel of a model helicopter to Hold. If interference should occur, these settings will help prevent the model ying out of control, possibly causing personal injury or property damage. Please refer to the appropriate section in your RC system or module instructions for the procedure. 2.3. Range warning The transmitter always emits an audible range warning in the form of a beep at a rate of about once per second when the receiver signal in the downlink channel becomes too weak. However, since the transmitter operates at much higher power than the receiver, the model can still be controlled safely. In the interests of safety you should nevertheless reduce the distance to the model until the audible signal ceases again. If the audible warning signal continues even when the receiver is (very) close, the transmitters low-voltage or temperature warning has been triggered! If this should occur, cease operations immediately and recharge the appropriate battery. 3. RECEIVER 3.1 Connections Connect the servos to the sockets on the top of the receiver. The SH and ZH connector systems are polarised;
check for the small lateral lugs. On no account use force to push the connector in; it should engage easily. The sockets are correctly marked: brown wire (-), red wire (+) and orange (signal). The servo sockets of Graupner HoTT 2.4 GHz receivers are numbered. Note that a brushed electric motor with a maximum continuous current of 2 A can be connected to channel 1 instead of a servo; in this case the wires should be soldered to the solder pads, as shown in the photo. Channel 1 now operates as an electronic speed controller.
33566 33565 Channel 6 can also be programmed for the HoTT sum signal, if you are using a suitable HoTT transmitter or the SMART-BOX (Order No. 33700). This is important for optional devices which require this signal. In the same way channel 5 can also be programmed for voltage measurement (max. 25.2 V DC), e.g. to monitor the receiver battery - see the point entitled Voltage measurement. 3.2 Programming:
The receiver can also be programmed using any suitable HoTT transmitter or the SMART-BOX (Order No. 33700). Five free mixers are available in addition to a number of receiver-speci c settings. 3.3 Operation The receiver set-up menu appears in the Telemetry menu under SETUP / DISPLAYS or under SETTING &
DATAVIEW if you are using the SMART-BOX. Please read the operating instructions supplied with your trans-
mitter or the Smart-Box to nd out how to access this menu. Manual Graupner HoTT 2.4 02 RECEIVER:

german, english, italian and spain french, Low voltage warning (ALARM VOLT): if the receiver voltage falls below the selected voltage, the transmitters RF module generates a low voltage warning in the form of a general alarm sound: a stea-
dy beeping at intervals of about one second or the voice announcement receiver voltage. ENVIRONNEMENTAL PROTECTION NOTES When this product comes to the end of its useful life, you must not dispose of it in the or-
dinary domestic waste. The correct method of disposal is to take it to your local collection point for recycling electrical and electronic equipment. The symbol shown here, which may be found on the product itself, in the operating instructions or on the packaging, indicates that this is the case. Individual markings indicate which materials can be recycled and re-used. You can make an important contribution to the protection of our common environment by re-using the product, recycling the basic materials or recycling redundant equipment in other ways. Remove batteries from your device and dispose of them at your local collection point for batteries. In case of R/C models, you have to remove electronic parts like servos, receiver, or speed controller from the product in question, and these parts must be disposed of with a corresponding collection point for electrical scrap. If you dont know the location of your nearest disposal centre, please enquire at your local council of-
ce. Temperature warning (ALARM TEMP): if the receiver temperature falls below the selected temperature, the transmitters RF module generates a temperature warning in the form of a general alarm sound: a steady beeping at intervals of about one second or the voice announcement receiver temperature. Cycle time (PERIOD): with the use of only digital servos, a cycle time of 10 ms can be set. In mixed operation or with use of only analog servos, 20 ms should absolutely be set, because the latter can otherwise be over-
strained and react with shaking or quivering as a result. HoTT Sum signal (SUMH): if the digital HoTT sum signal at channel 6 is activated, the sum signal with up to eight channels is generated at this socket instead of a servo signal. This is important for optional devices which require this signal. Voltage measurement (VOLTAGE at CH5): if voltage measurement at channel 5 is activated, a voltage up to max. 25.5 V DC can be monitored via this input using the circuit described below, instead of a servo. The volta-
ge is then displayed on the screen instead of the receiver voltage. This provides a direct means of monitoring the ight battery without the need for an additional sensor. Note: Additional sensors can not be connected to the receiver at the moment!

TRAVEL/+ (proportion of the admix in %): With the settings of these two lines the percentage of the admix is speci? ed in relation to the MASTER signal separately for each direction. 4. FIRMWARE UPDATE GR-12SH+/SC+ RECEIVER Firmware updates for the receiver can be transferred via the socket T in conjunction with a PC running Win-
dows XP, Vista or 7. For this you also require the USB interface, Order No. 7168.6, and the adapter leads Order No. 7168.S and Order No. 23048 (for 33566), which are available separately. The program micro software loader and ? les required for this are available from www.graupner.de in the Download area for the corresponding products. Caution: disconnect all servos from the receiver before carrying out an update, as they could run un-
controllably to one end-point during the procedure, and possibly cause damage to the model. 07 Manual Graupner HoTT 2.4 Manual Graupner HoTT 2.4 04 4.1. Update process Start the program micro software loader with a double-click on the exe- le. Under Com Port select the correct COM port Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge, i.e. the one to which the USB lead is connected. Now click on the Datei button and select the the previously loaded rmware le ending in *.bin. If eve-
rything is correct, the le will appear in the corresponding window. The rmware les are encoded in product-speci c form, i.e. if you accidentally select a le which does not match the product (e.g. transmitter update le instead of receiver le) you will not be able to start the update procedure. Press the Button Start. Connect channel 5 of the receiver to the USB update cable and then turn it on. The LED expires and the progress-bar shows you the progress of the rmware update. The update is complete when the bar reaches the right end and the red LED on the receiver starts ashing. Because the receiver settings remain after the update, the receiver can be used immediately.
