Transmitter 4 Receiver 1 Manual 1 K-6X Remote controller TODS sashoasies Introduction Thank you for purchasing KDS-6CH digital proportional R/C system. This system is extremely versatile and can be used by beginners and pros alike. In order for you to make the best use of your system and to fly safely, please read this manual throughly. If you have any difficulties while using your system, please contact your hobby dealer. Due to unforeseen changes in production procedures, the information contained in this manual is subject to change without notice. Warning
+Always keep electrical components away from small children. Stop flying long before your batteries become low on charge. Do not rely on your radio low battery warning systems, intended only as a precaution, to tell you when to recharge Always check your transmitter and receiver batteries prior to each flight. Before flying, be sure that the frequency you intend to fly with is not in use, and secure any frequency control device (pin, tag, etc.) for that frequency before turning on your transmitter. It is never possible to fly two or more models on the same frequency synchronously. Even though there are different types of modulation (AM, FM, PCM), only one model may be flown ona single frequency at any one time. While you are getting ready to fly, if you place your transmitter on the ground, be sure that the wind won't tip it over. If it is knocked over, the throttle stick may be accidentally moved, causing the engine to speed up. Also, damage to your transmitter may occur. Before taxiing, be sure to extend the transmitter antenna to its full length. A collapsed antenna will reduce your flying range and cause a loss of control. It is a good idea to avoid pointing the transmitter antenna directly at the model, since the signal is weakest in that direction. Don't fly in the rain! Water or moisture may enter the transmitter through the antenna or stick openings and cause erratic operation or loss of control. If you must fly in wet weather during a contest, be sure to cover your transmitter with a plastic bag or waterproof barrier. Never fly if lightning is expected. CD: K-6X Remote controller Hi system Manual 1.Precausion of safety It requires professional skills and technical knowledge to intall and operate R/C model properly. Incorrect installation and operation will result in servere property loss and personal injuries. KDS-6C 2.4GHz controll system is exclusively designed for civil use of R/C models. Don tuse it in any other flying machines. The governmence for R/C model is different in different place, therefore, please consult your local regulatory bodya and follow the rules and regulations to operate legally. Radio wave transfers almost in straight routine in 2.4Ghz, please make sure there is no any obstacle when you are operating the product. The antenna tube should point at the controlled model to ensure efficient control, and keep conductive materials away from receiver and transmitter. If there is prang, collision, welter and other accidents when operating, please test all the things before next operating. 2. Liability declaration KDS model company has the right to change the product, including the exterior, the functions parameter, and use request, but no notice. KDS model does not provide any guarantee, declaration and promise for special use of any KDS products. The recommended or text technologies data in the technology introduction for KDS model company only indicates the test result at that time, but it does not mean KDS model company acknowladges the result in law. KDS model company will not be reponsible for the result made by using any product or circuit, including the incidental or indirect compensation. The parameters of KDS electronic products will be changed under different conditions. The products will work only after all the funstions parameters are approved by each use intension. 3. KDS-6ch 2.4Ghz control system introduction KDS-6ch 2.4Ghz controll system units advanced electronic device, and features wide use. It can support multi-users and multi-equipment simultaneously, and features quick reponse, high precision, and strong capability for anti-
jamming. KDS-6ch 2.4Ghz sustain one transmitter and several receivers, and makes it possible that single radio can control several models simultanesously. KDS-6ch 2.4Ghz support different brand gyro KDS-6ch 2.4Ghz reacts quickly and precisely 4.The installation of receiver Installation position shall follow these conditions:
1) Keep the receiver away from engine, motor, ESC, battery, and other metal parts 2) The antenna can not be covered by metal, carbon material or the other electronic conduction material CD: K-6X Remote controller system Manual 5. Wiring Connect all devices and parts to the corresponding channels. Take notice of 3P signal wire must be connected in right way, or it will cause the severe damage to certain device or fail to work. There are some corresponding symbols of 3P on one side of the recevier:
(-) means cathod of power connected to the earth, usually links to the black line or brown line of 3P signal wire
(+) means the anode of power, usually links to the red wire of 3P singal wires.
(S) means signal wire, usually links to the white or yellow wire of 3P singal wires. Notice : please assess the power demand of the recevier of model when selecting the electricity supply style, ensure the receiver can get enough power supply when using, the voltage of the receiver notless than 4.2v at any time. 6. The intallation of Antenna Keep the antenna in 90 degrees with installed frame or bottom plate, it means that try to keep the antenna visible, see the illustation fee 7. Seaning:
1) open the transmitter by holding down the BIND, the blue LED of the transmitter will glitter once at this moment, it means that the transmiter has entered scaning. 2) Insert the BIND into the BIND socket of the receiver. 3)Turn on the powr of the receiver, the red LED will gilitter twice in 3 seconds, it indicates that it has been in the mode of signal scaning, then the LED will glitter quickly in 1 second, it means it is scaning, if the LED turn off, it means the scaning is finished. Then youcan pull out the wire and remove the BIND. 4)Turn off the transmitter and turn it on again, connect the receiver power, the LED is eternal sparkling. (note: if you have a few KDS~RX8CH receivers which need to be checked, pls don t__ turnoffthe transmitter, repeat the procedure 2 and procedure 3 as you press the BIND button each time, the signal scaning content will be deleted by the system automatically) K-6X Remote controller TODS sashoasies 8. Instruction:
Time for scaning: KDS-6C 2.4GHz control system will need several to tens of seconds in different locale situations and circumstance. Scaning failure: because KDS-6C 2.4GHz R/C control system put control reliability at the top important position, when meet some special circumstances in using locale, scaning may fail. Detailed performance will be: LED on receiver cant crush out after glitter twice, or can t glitter quickly. Operation after failed scaning: When system signal scaning failed, you can solve problem refer to the following method: turn off power supply of radio and receiver, and then restart scaning process. If scaning failed continuously for five times, please change field and wait for a while to try again. 9. Notice proceeding during scaning process:
KDS-6C 2.4GHz remote control system sustain multiple receivers operation and long-distance scaning, so please make sure there s only your radio scaning. If there is any person who also use KDS-6C 2.4GHz remote control system in locale, please operate only after other users pare the signal. 10. Control distance All remote control equipment has an effective range. It s not the same on the ground, water surface or flyin the sky; it snotthe same on flat ground and complicated layout; it snotthe same in rainy days or sunny days; and besides, the external electrical environment is changing continuously. It s quite necessary for the users who want to control at a long distance to test effective distance beforehand. Radio wave transfers almost in a straight line, please make sure there s no object between antenna and the controlled model. And the antenna should point at receiver s antenna, and keep the controlled model in certain distance where you can see the model. CD: K-6X Remote controller Go system Manual Manual 1 Features
