Parameter Overview

• Automatic Reset

  • Description: This option allows configuring the receiver pack mAh consumption to automatically reset after detecting charged batteries

  • Values: Inhibit, Active

  • Notes:

    • You must use the Capture Charged Voltage option when the receiver packs are fully charged to teach the receiver the voltage at which the batteries are fully charged.

• 12V Servo Bus

  • Description: Allows enabling support for 3s voltage

  • Values: Inhibit, Active

  • Notes:

    • This option is disabled by default to prevent users from burning servos if accidentally plugging in a 3s battery unintentionally

    • Make sure ALL servos connected to the system support 3s voltage before enabling

• Power Source

  • Description: Determines the power source the system will accept for operation

  • Values:

    • Battery Ports - Default use. Power is provided through 1 or 2 of the dedicated battery ports.

    • Servo Rail - Power is provided directly to the servo rail, such as with the BEC of an ESC.

  • Notes:

    • When using Servo Rail as the power source, some features are not supported.

      • Fastboot is disabled (AR20410T only)

      • Remote Sleep, Wake, Shutdown are disabled (AR20410T only)

      • Protection from unintended 3s voltage to servos is disabled

    • Note that when powering directly through the Servo Rail, current throughput is severely limited from the advertised amount.

• Reset Capacity (Next Page)

  • Description: Manually clear the receiver pack mAh consumption
