3.1.1. Power
Veronte can use unregulated DC(6.5V to 36V) for a total power consumption of;4W
including radio module and 10W including both, radio and Vision. Pins used for power and
ground are the same for both Ground and Air/Vision configurations.
Table 5: Veronte Power and Ground Pins
LiPo batteries between 2S and 8S can be used without regulation needs. Remaining
batterycan be controlled by the internal voltage sensor and by configuring the voltage
warnings on the PC application.
For higher voltage installations, voltage regulators must be used. For dimensioning voltage
regulators take into account that a blocked servo can activate regulator thermal protection
and carry to a power cut. It is recommended to use Embention high performance UAV
regulators.
Caution!!Power Veronte out of the given range can cause irreversible damage
to the system. Please read carefully the manual before powering the system.
Veronte and servos can be powered by the same or different batteries, in case there is more
than one battery on the system it is needed to ensurea singleunion of differentground. The
ground signal should be isolated from other system ground references (e.g. engines).
It is recommendable to use independent switches for autopilot and motor / actuators.
During the system initialization, PWM signal will be fixed to low level (0V), please make sure
that actuators / motor connected support this behaviour before installing a single switch for
the whole system.
