Approvals 6. Warranty & Service Appendix Frequency Chart Chapter1 Safety Precaution Thank you for purchasing a Proton Control Systems product. Before operating your Husky transmitter or Ken receiver, please read this manual carefully and retain it for future reference. Safety Precaution Transmitter and Receiver

- Do not operate two or more models on the same frequency at any given time. This will cause interference and loss of control of models. Although there can be differ-

ent methods of modulation (AM, FM(PPM),PCM, etc.) being used, the same frequency must not be used at the same time, regardless of the signal format.

- Extend the transmitter antenna to its full length. If the transmitter antenna is not fully extended the operating range of the radio will be reduced.

- Always perform an operating range check prior to use. Do not operate the model if you notice any abnormality. Problems with the radio control system or improper installation in a model could cause loss of control.

- Check the transmitter antenna to be sure it is not loose. If the transmitter antenna works itself loose, or is disconnected while the model is running, signal transmission will be lost. This will cause you to lose control of your model.

- Be sure to turn on the power switches in the proper sequence. At startup, turn on transmitter first, then the receiver. At shutdown, turn off the receiver first, then the transmitter. IMPORTANT Before powering on your unit, always check the throttle trigger on the trans-

mitter to be sure it is at the neutral position. When turning off the system power switches, always make sure the engine is not running. If the power switches are turned off in reverse order, your model may unexpectedly run out of control. The transmission of signal can take upto 5 seconds after the power switch is turned on. 5 seconds are needed for synthesizing the frequency. So the power to your receiver should be turned on at least 5 seconds after the transmitter is powered on. Operating R/C

- Use this product for surface models only. (Cars, trucks, boats, etc.)

- Do not operate in rain, snow, or if there are puddles of water present. Should any type of moisture (water or snow) come in contact with any components of the system, erratic operation and loss of control may occur.

- Operate only when you are fully alert to your surroundings. Do not operate if you are under the influence of alcohol, drug, or medication. Your impaired judgement can result in serious injury to yourself as well as others.

- Do not operate in the following places: sites where you may interfere with other radio control activities, where the general public can be found, on public roads and near high-tension power lines or communication broadcasting antennas.

- Always perform an operating range check and do not lose sight of you model.

- Do not leave your R/C system or model within the reach of children. A child may accidentally operate the system and injuries may result. Safety Precaution Battery Although the batteries are not included in the product, customers should take precautionary measures when using and handling batteries.

- Ni-Cd batteries can be very dangerous when mishandled. The acidic fluid from a Ni-Cd battery, if leaked, can cause serious injuries and chemical damages.

- In the event that battery fluid leaks onto your skin, immediately wash with soap and plenty of water. Seek medical attention as necessary. In the event that bat-

tery fluid comes in contact with your eyes, do not rub and immediately wash with plenty of water. Seek medical attention immediately.

- When your R/C system is not being used, always remove or disconnect the bat-

teries. Should the batteries be left connected, a leakage may result or if someone accidentally turns on either the receiver or transmitter, a dangerous situation may be created where models operate without control.

- Always follow your battery manufacturer's directions and guidelines. Do not attempt to disassemble, short circuit, or subject the batteries to high temperature or fire.

- Your transmitter has been designed to operate using AA-size batteries. These include 1.5 volt alkaline and rechargeable 1.2 volt Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd) bat-

teries. Do not attempt to operate the product with incompatible batteries.

- Replace all batteries of a set at the same time. New batteries should not be mixed with used ones. Do not mix rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries. Do not mix alkaline and Ni-Cd types of batteries. Do not mix different grades or brands of batteries. Failure to observe this precaution may result in some batteries in a set being driven beyond their normal exhaust point and increase their possibility of leakage.

- 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.

- When disposing of batteries, follow the manufacturer's instructions and the guidelines of all federal, state, and local regulations. We recommend customers to participate in any community battery-recycling programs that may exist in your area. Contact your local waste remover or recycler for details. Maintenance

- To keep from damaging your transmitter or receiver, avoid exposing it to mois-

ture, extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, vibration and dust.

- Clean the outside of the transmitter and receiver by wiping with a clean, dry cloth. Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners or organic solvents on the transmitter or the receiver.

- Do not expose plastic parts to fuel, motor spray, waste oil or exhaust. These will penetrate and damage the plastic.

- Never disassemble or touch the inside of the transmitter. This could result in electrical shock. Chapter2 Features Features Crystal-Free Operation - No crystals needed to change frequencies The frequencies of most transmitters and receivers are adjusted by replacing the crystals. Enthusiasts who want to change frequencies must purchase extra crystal sets to prevent interference between the same frequencies. To complicate matters further there are so many types of crystals based on modulation (FM/AM, PPM/PCM), conversion type

(Single/Dual) and Radio makers. To solve this problem, Proton Control Systems adapted PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) technology to your Husky transmitter and Ken receiver. The preferred frequencies are digitally selectable from the menu simply by pressing buttons. Works with all popular FM transmitters & receivers Your Husky transmitter and Ken receiver are each compatible with all popular FM trans-

mitters and receivers. These include A class (FutabaTM, HitecTM) and B class (JRTM, SanwaTM, KOTM). This flexibility allows you to use different brand transmitters and receivers. USB port for PC game control Your Husky is more than a transmitter for your R/C models. Use your Husky transmitter to control your PC games too! Husky comes with a built-in USB port for connecting to your personal computer. Now you can practice at home before the big race. Better still, your race will never be rained out. Easy to change grip direction for left or right-hander Husky's symmetrical design allows you to quickly change format from right- to left-hand grip. Just unscrew 4 screws and rotate the body 180O degrees. Comprehensive programming features Husky provides 3 levels (Basic, Imtermediate, Advanced ) of programing and 3 modes

However the grip direction can be changed for left-handers by following the directions below. 1. Make sure that the Power switch is set to OFF. 2. Carefully remove the 4 screws from the bottom section of the control panel. 3. Separate the control panel and the body by slowly pulling apart. 4. Rotate the head 180 degrees and carefully re-insert the control panel into the body. Be carefully not to bend the pin connectors inside. 5. Reinstall the 4 screws. Be careful not to over-tighten the screws. Preparation Antenna Installation The antenna included with your Husky is safely stored in a slot underneath the control panel. To remove the antenna, pull out the plastic retainer cap located at the front of your Husky transmitter, then slide the antenna out. Insert the base of the antenna into the antenna receptacle at the top of the control panel. Then screw the antenna clockwise until it is firmly attached. Be careful not to over tighten the antenna. NOTE The antenna should be fully extended while transmitting. Otherwise the operating range of the system will be reduced, causing a loss of control. Loading the batteries Your Husky transmitter requires 8 AA batteries (not included). Alkaline batteries will provide power for approximately 7 hours of use. The battery compartment is located at the bottom of the transmitter body. 1. Make sure the Power switch is set to OFF position. 2. Release the hook and the battery cover will pop up. 3. Pull out the battery holder slowly and carefully unplug the connector from the battery compartment. Install 8 AA batteries into the battery holder. 4. Plug the connector back in and place the battery holder back into the battery case. Press down the battery cover until it locks in place. Charging The changing jack is located on the back side of control panel and marked "12V

". Before start charging, make sure the rechargeable NiCd batteries are installed and power switch is set to OFF position. For charging the transmitter, the charger must have the below specification. Otherwise it may damage the transmit-

ter or not be charged. Input voltage : 110V 60 Hz for USA, 230V 50 Hz for Europe Output voltage : DC 10.8V 150 mAh Charging jack polarity :

Typical slow charging rate with DC 10.8V, 150mA is approximately 12 hours, while most Sanyo brand AAs can be charged at up to 1 Amp. NOTE Never attempt to charge a dry cell type (Non-NiCd) battery. Charging a non NiCd battery can damage the transmitter, and could also cause the battery electro-

lyte to leak and cause injuries and additional damages. Preparation Power Switch (ON, OFF, S/B) The Power switch is the small toggle switch located back of the Control Panel. It can be set to On, Off or Standby (S/B) mode. Power On and Off is the same as any other electronic devices. Standby (S/B) mode allows you to program all functions without transmitting a radio signal. This is useful for making adjustments while not affecting others that may be on your frequency. Standby (S/B) mode also uses about 2/3 less power. If you plan to work in a programming mode for any length of time or use your Husky as a PC game controller, using Standby will extend your battery life. "STB" appears on the LCD display in Standby (S/B) mode. Battery Voltage is displayed both numerically and graphically on the LCD display. The graphical depiction is a horizontal bar on the top right conner of the display. The length of the power level bar is gradually reduced according to current con-

sumption. When voltage drops below 8.7 volts, the bar flashes and an alarm will sound to alert the low voltage condition. NOTE At low voltage, immediately stop the model and replace the batteries. Other-

wise loss of control of model may result. Direct Servo Control (using optional cable) DSC allows you to operate the servos and speed controllers without propagating the radio frequency (RF). This is ideal for pit checking your radio setup while others are operating on the same frequency. To operate, plug the radio connector end of the DSC cable into the DSC jack located behind the control panel of your Husky. The other male end of the DSC cable is inserted into the battery slot (Slot B) on your Ken receiver. Set the power switch to ON position. USB Connection for PC Game Control (using optional cable) Your Husky has a USB port located behind the control panel. By connecting a USB cable between your Husky and a PC, your Husky can function as a PC game con-

troller or a joystic. With the Power Switch set to Standby position (S/B), plug the

"B" type end of the USB cable into your Husky and the "A" type end of the USB cable into the USB port on your PC. NOTE USB cables are available in a variety of lengths at your local computer store. Look for a USB Printer Cable. Standing The large Control Panel at top portion of your Husky makes somewhat top-heavy. We recommend your Husky stands as illustrated below. This allows better stability, better grip approach and ease of pick-up.

Locate and decide the mounting position of Ken. Ken and the antenna mast should be positioned closely to each other, but they should be mounted as far away as possible from the speed controller, motor, servo, power wires and the power source in order to minimize the pickup of electrical noise which reduces the radio range. 2. Clean the surface where Ken is to be mounted. 3. Mount the Ken with double-sided adhesive tape (included). If installed in an engine powered model, it is recommended that the Ken receiver be mounted with foam rubber wrapped around to dampen the vibration or shock and to protect from dirt or oil. 4. Run the antenna wire up through the antenna mast. Do not cut or coil the excess wire, or radio range will be reduced. 5. For gas powered models, plug the steering servo connector into Slot 1, throttle servo connector into Slot 2, and power connector into Slot B. For electric powered models, plug the steering servo connector into Slot 1, speed controller connector into Slot 2. Be sure the connectors are firmly inserted into the slots to avoid connections becoming loose due to vibration from the model. Ken receiver accepts FutabaTM, JRTM, new KOTM and SanwaTM Z connectors. NOTE Do not cut or coil the excess antenna wire. Cutting, bundling or routing the receiver antenna wire near any devices that produce noise (RF) will reduce the operating range of the radio system and result in loss of control. Do not remove the housing case of Ken receiver in an attempt to reduce weight. This can cause serious damage to the internal circuitry from dirt or moisture. Removing the case will void Proton Control Systems product warranty. Preparation KEN 2Channel FM RECEIVER (continued) LED Servo & power slot 1st digit button 2nd digit button Frequency /Channel Selection Ken is a crystal-free receiver. You do not need crystals to change frequencies. Each available frequency is assigned with a two-digit channel number which can be referenced in the [Frequency Chart] located in the Appendix section of this manual. A two-digit LED display on your Ken shows the channel number of your chosen frequency. To change the channel number, follow the steps below:

1. Switch on the power to the Ken receiver. The current set channel is displayed on the LED for about 3 seconds. 2. Press left (1st digit button) or right button (2nd digit button) repeatedly until your desired channel number is reached. Thats it! Your Ken is now tuned to that channel and ready to receive signal. At anytime, by pressing either button momentarily will bring your last set channel number to the LED display. Susequent press of either button while the LED is lit will change the channel number. Your Ken receiver uses non-volatile memory technology to store its settings. This means your set channel will not be lost even after the power is disconnected. NOTE Your Ken receivers frequency should always be set to match your transmitters frequency. Otherwise the receiver may receive unwanted signals from other sources, causing an unexpected accident and damage your model. Make sure to turn the power off when not in use.

A.B.S works as a pulse brake, allowing greater stability and control during hard braking. The pulse width

("on" time versus "off" time) is called duty, the pulse height (how hard the brakes pulse) is called width, and the braking point where ABS actually begins is called position. A delay can be programmed so that regular braking occurs first, then at a pre-set delay ABS braking begins. 1. Press button until the cursor is at ABS. 2. Press button to display the ABS screen. 3. Press / button until desired value appears on width. 4. Press and / button until desired value appears on position. 5. Press and / button until desired value appears on cycle. 6. Press and / button until desired value appears on delay. 7. Press and / button until desired value appears on duty.

This area is sometimes known as dead band. As more throttle trim (also known as static brake) is applied, more of the dead trigger area right off neutral exists. Adjust a forward value such that your vehicle's wheels just start to turn when the trigger is slightly squeezed. This gives the most accurate feel and eliminates this dead area. This feature is also available for steering. Steering Punch can eliminate dead band around neutral. 1. Press button until the cursor is at Punch. 2. Press button to display the Punch screen. 3. Press / button until the desired value appears on steering position. 4. Press and / button until the desired value appears on throttle forward position. 5.

Modification Warning Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the users authority to operate the equipment. The Following Statement Applies to the Ken Receiver (for U.S.A) This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions; (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and

(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesirable operation.

- CE The R&TTE (Radio Equipment & Telecommunications Terminal Equipment) direc-

tive is the new European directive relating to radio equipment and telecommunica-

tions transmission equipment. It also covers the collective recognition of the confor-

mity of such equipment. One part of the R&TTE directive regulates the introduction and operation of radio systems in the European Community. An important change is the abolition of approval. The manufacturer or importer must subject radio equipment to a conformity appraisal process before that equip-

ment is introduced. The CE symbol is attached to the device to indicate that it conforms with the valid European norms. An exclamation mark is also to be attached to radio transmitting equipment, to indicate that the permissible frequencies are not yet uniform throughout Europe. This requirement applies to all the countries included in the list attached. It is essential to note that these radio control systems may only be operated on the approved frequencies, as listed in the table. Please note that the user bears the responsibility for compliance with this require-

ment, and for ensureing that the radio system complies with the directives. In Germany the requirement to purchase a licence for the operation of 35 MHz systems remains in effect; please refer to the operating instructions, or the separate sheet included with them.
