"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 efficiency,
set both "max" and "min" to the high frequency side. When you want to set a fixed 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.

Same as Link software Low Bat Protection.
When the power supply voltage drops, the output current to the
motor is limited and supply voltage to the receiver is ensured.
When the power supply voltage drops to the set voltage, a pro-
tection circuit operation alarm is activated and output to the motor
is cut. The protection circuit is automatically reset by recovery of
the power supply voltage.

Same as Link software Current Limit timer.
The output current can be limited up to the set time lapse from the start of running. This is effective in preventing
the motor from outputting wasted energy when the voltage is high immediately after the power battery was re-
charged.
"Current Limiter (time)" 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 forward side and current is output to the mo-
tor, this function begins to operate when the motor is run during trim adjustment, etc.

This function adjusts the braking effect when the throttle was returned (throttle
off). It cancels operation like that called engine brake of actual vehicles.
Brake timer
MC940,960CR/MC950CR :0sec~300sec
Same as Link software Brake Timer.
When the reverse function is used, ordinarily if the trigger is not moved to the
brake (reverse) side and then returned from the brake operation position to the
neutral position, reverse operation will not be performed. However, when used
by intentionally moving the neutral point to the forward side, if brake operation
is repeated, reverse operation may be performed even if the trigger is not re-
turned to the neutral position. The time required to switch to reverse operation
can be set to prevent this from occurring.
Lead angle
MC950CR/ :0~1500
Same as Link software Lead Angle.
The lead angle of the motor can be set at the MC950CR side. However, we
recommend that it normally be set to "0". Since this setting is premised on
setting by referring to the speed log by the Link software.

BEC voltage
MC940,960CR/ :6.0V/7.4V
Same as Link software BEC Volt.
The receiver BEC voltage can be selected from 6.0V and 7.4V. Match the volt-
age to the rating of the servo connected to the same receiver. This BEC voltage
cannot output a voltage higher than the input voltage.
For instance, if a 6.0V receiver and servo are used with a power supply voltage
of 7.4V or more, set the BEC voltage to 6.0V and when a high voltage receiver
and servo are used, set the BEC voltage to 7.4V.
Turbo mode
MC940,960CR/ :Turbo0/Turbo1/Turbo2
Same as Link software Turbo Mode.
This function sets the turbo mode. More power can be displayed by using the turbo mode. Depending on the set-
ting, the motor and ESC may be damaged so make this setting carefully.
(Note) When "Lead angle use" is INH, lead angle setting will not operate
even if set to "Turbo1" or "Turbo2." (Turbo mode disabled, Turbo0=Off)
-Turbo0 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
"Lead angle use" was turned off.
When the lead angle function was disabled by the method described above,
the MC940,960CR 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.
-Turbo1 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 "Lead angle use" and adjust the lead angle by "Lead angle" and point A, B, C, D, E (A, B, C, D, E Lead
angle) value.
-Turbo2 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.
Turn on "Lead angle use" and adjust the lead angle by "Lead angle" and point A, B, C, D, E (A, B, C, D, E Lead
angle) value.
Power point A
MC940,960CR/ :0rpm~100000rpm
Same as Link software Power Point A.
When the turbo mode is power 2 (Power mode) and the lead angle is large,
movement may become stiff when entering the course, etc. In this case, make
operation smooth by lowering the set speed at power point A.
This function is not performed in modes other than Turbo 2.
4PX-Eng-08-Function-104-156.indd 124 2014/07/18 17:36:15
When using in races in which the lead angle setting function is inhibited by the ESC, set "Lead
angle use" to "INH". The "Lead angle use" setting has priority over "Turbo mode". If "Lead angle
use" is set to "INH", the lead angle setting function can be turned off even if "Turbo mode" is set to
"Turbo1" or "Turbo2".
The MC940,960CR shows that the lead angle setting function is OFF ("0" timing) by blinking a LED.
The "Lead angle" and "Point A, B, C, D, E Lead angle" relationship is shown on the graphs below. Graph
[1] shows the relationship when the same value is set at "Points A, B, C, D, E Lead angle" of [1] and [2]
and the "Lead angle" was set to "0" and graph [2] shows the relationship when a value other than "0" was
set at "Lead angle". As shown in the graphs, [2] is added to the "Points A, B, C, D, E Lead angle" set lead
angle and [1] is added to the "Lead angle" set lead angle. For example, if "3" is set at Point A and "Lead
angle" of [2] is set to "2", the actual Point A becomes 3+2=5 (deg). Since "Lead angle" of [A] is "0", the
actual Point A also becomes 3+0=3 (deg).

-Power is supplied to the servo from the transmitter, but the corresponding voltage is for
high voltage servo (HV) use. Since an overvoltage will be applied to servos other than
this, connect the corresponding battery to the servo. When the battery is connected, the
supply of power from the transmitter automatically stops.
Caution
When connecting an S-BUS servo that does not support high voltage, connect a battery
matched to the servo specifications.
High voltage servo support voltage is supplied from the transmitter. If a servo that does not support high voltage is
connected, unreasonable force will be applied to the servo and will cause trouble.
Communication port
S.Bus Servo
This is a special function which allows Futaba S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo parameter changes to
be set by the T4X transmitter.
However, some data changes require a PC and S-Link software.
This function is used by connecting
Futaba S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo
directly to the transmitter.

1Select the setting item by (JOG) button up, down, left, or right operation.
Set the value by (+) and (-) button.
ID
Displays the ID of the servo whose parameters are to be read. It cannot be changed.
Channel
This is the S.BUS system channel assigned to the servo. When
connected to the receiver S-BUS2 connector as an S.BUS sys-
tem, the channel used by the transmitter is assigned. When the
normal receiver channel is used, channel setting is unneces-
sary.
Reverse
The direction in which the servo rotates can be changed.
Neutral
The neutral position can be changed. When the eutral offset is
large value, the servo’s range of travel is restricted on one side.
Travel(L)
The maximum left travels centered about the neutral position
can be set independently.
Travel(R)
The maximum right travels centered about the neutral position can be set independently.
Speed
Speeds can be matched by specifying the operating speed. The speed of multiple servos can be matched without be-
ing affected by motor fluctuations. This is effective for load torques below the maximum torque.
However, note that the maximum speed will not be exceed what the servo is capable of even if the servos operating
voltage is increased.
Soft Start
Restricts operation in the specified direction the instant the power is turned on. By using this setting, the first initial
movement when the power is turned on slowly moves the servo to the specified position.
Stop Mode
The state of the servo when the servo input signal is lost can be specified. The "Hold" mode setting holds the servo in
its last commanded position even if using AM or FM system.
Smoother
This function makes servo operation smooth. Set it according to your taste. Normally set it to "ACT". Set it to "INH"
when want especially quick operation. When the smoother function was set to "ACT" and the servo was operated the
distance up to the target position is hanged in steps so movement is smooth.
Dead band
The dead band angle at stopping can be specified.
[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 continuously and the current consumption will in-
crease and the life of the servo will be shortened.

Function
S.Bus Servo
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 wors-
ened.
(Note) If used in the hunting state, not only will the current consumption increase, but the life of theservo will also be
shortened.
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
Boost/Boost (ON/OFF)
INH : It is the boost ON at the time of low-speed operation.(In the case of usual)
ACT : It is always the boost ON.(When quick operation is hope)
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 adjust-
ing 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 be-
come rough.
Type
When "Retractable" is selected and the servo has been continuously stopped for 30 seconds, the dead
band expands and unnecessary hold current due to external force is eliminated. When a new control
signal enters, normal operation is resumed. When using the servo as a landing gear servo, select
"Retractable". Also adjust the servo travel to match the landing gear movement range.
Alarm
When the power supply of a servo is previously turned on at the time of a power supply injection without taking trans-
mit of a transmitter, the buzzer sound of about 2.5 Hz continues sounding from a servo.
(Even when the transmit of a transmitter is taken out previously, a buzzer becomes until the signal of a servo is output-
ted normally, but it is not unusual.)
The transmitter has been turned OFF ahead of a servo power supply The buzzer sound of about 1.25 Hz continues
sounding as servo power supply end failure alarm.
(Do not insert or remove the servo connector while the receiver power is ON. A buzzer may sound by incorrect recog-
nition.)
*Buzzer sound is generated by vibrating the motor of a servo.
Since current is consumed and a servo generates heat, please do not operate the number more than needed or do not
continue sounding a buzzer for a long time.

What is a slot?
Servos are classified by channel and sensors are classified by "slot". Since the T4PX initial slot
No. is set at each sensor in advance, they can be connected as is. There are 31 slots numbered
1 to 31.
*When sensors over the initial setting (use of multiple sensors of the same type) are used, they
must be registered at the sensor menu (p.138).
Telemetry
Telemetry System
With the telemetry system, the running status can be displayed at the transmitter and also
recorded as a data log by installing various sensor units to the chassis
(The S-FHSS and FASST systems do not have a telemetry function.)
-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.
-To log this information, a start/stop switch is set by switch setting (p.99).
The log data recorded on a microSD card can be converted to CSV format by the telemetry

dition, it may cause servo trouble. Futaba will not be responsible for damage, etc. caused by combination with the products
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 4PX servo type to the "Analog servo" mode.
Transmitter mode :
Analog servo type(See p.39 for setting method.)
Receiver’s battery :
Matched to the ratings of the receiver and connected servo.
The set cannot operate in the "Digital servo" type. Operation in this type will cause trouble with the servo and other equipment.
Digital servos (including BLS Series brushless servos) can also be used in the
