10.14 Channel Monitor
This function is used to verify that the channel inputs are working correctly. You
should see values of around 1500uS with the throttle trigger and steering wheel in
their neutral positions, with values of around 1000uS and 2000uS with the throttle
trigger and steering wheel at each end of their travel. Please note that if the Steering
Dual Rate is set to less than 100% is will reduce the range of travel of the steering. If
the values seen in the Channel Monitor are outside of those ranges then please carry
out the Channel Adjust/Calibration function described in 9.13 to resolve.
10.15 Speed
This feature requires use of the optional ET1156 and ET1158 Telemetry parts for correct
operation.
The light sensor can be used to display wheel RPM. Mount the sensor as shown
above and enter the number of spokes in the wheel under the ‘Blade’ setting. Both the
current wheel RPM and the maximum wheel RPM since the telemetry module was
powered up are visible in this display.
It’s possible to calculate the car speed from the wheel RPM:
KMH = 0.06 x (tyre diameter x 3.142) x wheel RPM
MPH = KMH x 0.6214
