How to link the transmitter and the receiver

Eachtransmitterhasanindividuallyassigned,uniqueIDcode.Inordertostartoperation,

the receiver must be linked with the ID code of the transmitter with which it is being

paired.Oncethelinkismade,theIDcodeisstoredinthereceiverandnofurtherlinking

isnecessaryunlessthereceiverneedstobeusedwithanothertransmitter.(ForT/Rset,

thelinkisalreadydoneatfactory.)

Link procedure

1Bring the transmitter and the receiver close

toeachother,withinonemeter.

2Turnonthetransmitterandthereceiver.

3PushandholdtheLinkSwitchofthe

receiver.

4When the link is complete, the LED in the

receiverchangestosolidgreen.

*PleasereferthetablebelowforLEDstatusvsreceiver'scondition.

Fail Safe Function (F/S)

Foranelectriccar(E.C.Suse),

link the transmitter and the

receiver at neutral position.

For the engine car,

link the transmitter and the

receiver at braking position.

This function moves the throttle

servo to a preset position when the

receiver cannot receive the signal

from the transmitter for some

reason.

Whenthesignalfromthe

transmitter can be received again,

this function automatically resets.

The throttle position at the link

operation is memorized.

Transmitter Set-Up Procedures

*Whenmakingthesesettingsadjustments,dosowiththemotordisconnectedor

the engine not running.

NEUTRAL, HIGH, AND BRAKE MAX POINT SETTINGS

Before setting each point, set the transmitter throttle channel trim to neutral.

Turn on the power in transmitter -> amp order.

Transmitter throttle operation

･Neutral state ･Press the pushbutton switch.

(0.5 secs or longer)

(Confirmation beep sounds)

･Continuous single blink

･Full high state ･Press the pushbutton switch.

･Continuous double blink

･Continuous rapid blink

High point

setting

･Full brake state ･Press the pushbutton switch.

(Confirmation beep sounds.)

･If the LED goes out,

setting is complete.

Brake MAX

point setting

* Since the data is read at the end of setting of all points, the points cannot be set independently.

* If the amp power was turned off during setting, the setting points cannot be memorized. (The previous settings are retained.)

* The confirmation beep sounds only when the motor was connected.

If the LED does not go off

but blinks rapidly, setting

was not performed

normally. Repeat setting

from "Neutral point

setting".

Set the steering angle adjustment function (ATV) to

100% and the ABS function and acceleration function

to OFF using the transmitter throttle channel function.

If the steering angle is too large or the ABS and acceleration

functions are on, erroneous operation may occur.

*When using the ABS function, after setting up

the MC230CR / MC330CR, stop the reverse

function, then turn on the ABS function. If the

ABS function is on, the MC231CR / MC331CR

cannot be set up correctly.

BRAKE/REVERSE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Operation can be switched to reverse operation by returning the throttle trigger (or throttle stick) from the brake

position to the neutral position.

CANCELLING THE REVERSE FUNCTION

The amp reverse function can be cancelled by the following method so that the model can be used even in races

that prohibit reverse running. (Brake operation only)

While pressing

the pushbutton switch, set the power switch to ON.

* When desired, you can enable the cancelled reverse

function by repeating the operation shown at the left.

(The reverse function is switched alternately.)

CHECKER LED DISPLAY

The amp operates linearly in proportion to the amount of forward, reverse, and brake operation. The amp operating

state can be checked with the checker LED as shown below.

PROTECTION CIRCUIT OPERATION

The following protection circuits are built into the MC230CR / MC330CR. When a protection circuit operates,

remove the cause before operating the model again.

*Not used with PCM receivers.

*When the transmitter is OFF, this function is

not performed in environments such that the

servo operates erroneously.

When an overcurrent flows due to an output short circuit, etc., the overcurrent protection circuit automatically

limits the current to protect the FET.

Remove the cause of the short circuit, etc. before operating the model again.

(Amp power left on alarm)

was turned off first.

Overcurrent

protection

When abnormal heating of the FET due to an overload, etc. is detected, the heat protector operates so that

the speed is gradually reduced.

When the FET temperature drops, the heat protector automatically resets. However, remove the cause

of the overheating before operating the model again.

Heat protector

When the Nicd battery voltage drops, this function limits the motor output current and ensures steering operation.

After the speed drops, immediately recover the vehicle.
