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 speciﬁ cally designed for slow-ﬂ y models whose components are ﬁ 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 ﬁ rst time, please read and observe all the warnings and safety notes in these

instructions and on the packaging.

WARNINGS

Do not connect servos to this receiver whose current drain exceeds the maximum permissible for•

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 ﬂ 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 ﬁ 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-

mitter now glow constantly, and the red LED on the receiver is on.

or: select the transmitter menu „Basic Settings, Model“ and use Use the  arrow keys of the left or right

touch pad to move to the screen‘s „RF bind“ line“. Now start the so-called „receiver binding“ process for the

receiver to the currently active model memory by brieﬂ y pressing the center SET button of the right touch

pad. At this time the screen‘s 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 ﬂ 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 ﬂ 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 transmitter’s 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.

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-speciﬁ 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 ﬁ nd out how to access this menu.

Low voltage warning (ALARM VOLT): if the receiver voltage falls below the selected voltage, the

transmitter’s 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“.

Temperature warning (ALARM TEMP): if the receiver temperature falls below the selected temperature,

the transmitter’s 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 ﬂ ight battery without the need for an additional sensor.

Note: Additional sensors can not be connected to the receiver at the moment!

rything is correct, the ﬁ le will appear in the corresponding window.

The ﬁ rmware ﬁ les are encoded in product-speciﬁ c form, i.e. if you accidentally select a ﬁ le which does

not match the product (e.g. transmitter update ﬁ le instead of receiver ﬁ 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 ﬁ rmware update. The update is complete when the bar reaches

the right end and the red LED on the receiver starts ﬂ ashing. Because the receiver settings remain after the

update, the receiver can be used immediately.
