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
