ESC Programming with LED Program Card G2

To program your ZTW Beast G2 series ESC using the LED Program Card G2, follow these steps:

  1. Connect the ESC to the battery. Power on the ESC.
  2. Plug the ESC signal wire into the right socket of the LED Program Card. Wait for two seconds until the LED on the card is on. The card is now ready for programming.
  3. Agħfas il- MENU button to navigate through the main menu options.
  4. Agħfas il- VALUR button to select a sub-menu option for the currently selected main menu item.
  5. Agħfas il- OK button to confirm your selection. The ESC programming for that parameter is now complete.
  6. To reset an ESC value, press the RESET buttuna l-ewwel, imbagħad agħfas OK biex tikkonferma r-reset.

Kalibrazzjoni tat-throttle

Throttle calibration is essential for proper operation, especially for first-time use or after replacing the transmitter. Follow these steps:

  1. Connect the ESC's motor wires to your corresponding motor connectors.
  2. Plug the ESC's signal wire into the throttle channel of your receiver.
  3. Ixgħel it-trasmettitur tiegħek.
  4. With the ESC's power off, press and hold the ESC's power button until the blue LED light turns on and you hear a long motor beep. Then release the ESC's power button. A solid red light will indicate your ESC has entered throttle calibration mode.
  5. Push the throttle stick to the maximum forward position. The ESC's blue and red LED lights will blink three times and then stay on, accompanied by a motor beep, confirming that the forward throttle has been set.
  6. Move the throttle stick to the full reverse position. The ESC's blue LED light will blink three times, then stay on with two motor beeps, confirming that the reverse throttle is set.
  7. Finally, return the throttle to the neutral position. The ESC's blue LED light will blink three times, followed by three motor beeps, indicating that throttle calibration has been successfully completed.

Issolvi l-problemi

The ZTW Beast SL 120A G2 ESC is equipped with smart protection features to safeguard your investment. If you encounter issues, consider the following:

  • Vol baxxtage Cutoff: If the ESC stops operating or reduces power, it may be due to the low-voltage cutoff activating to protect your LiPo battery. Recharge or replace the battery.
  • Protezzjoni Termali: If the ESC overheats (e.g., due to excessive load or poor ventilation), it will automatically shut off at 105°C. Allow the ESC to cool down before resuming operation. Ensure adequate airflow around the ESC.
  • Locked Rotor Detection: This feature prevents motor burnout if the motor rotor becomes locked. If activated, check for obstructions or damage to the motor or drivetrain.
  • Protezzjoni mit-Telf tas-Sinjal: In case of signal loss from the receiver, the ESC will perform a safe auto-shutdown to prevent runaway. Verify your transmitter and receiver connection and battery levels.
