Receiver
battery
The following
rule
of thumb is
a useful
guide
for selecting
the capacity
of
your
receiver
battery:
0.2 Ah x
number
of servos
=
battery
capacity in Ah
For
a model with
5 servos,
for
example, a
'1
Ah
battery
would
be a
good
choice. However,
provided
that weight
and
space considerations
allow, it is
always
safer to
pick
a battery
,,the
next
size up" rather
than a
smaller one.
Switch harness
The switch
harness is
connected
between
batterv
and
receiver.
Some
types of
switch harness
are fitted
wlth an
integral
charge
socket
(e.9.
Order
No. 8
5100). tf the
switch
is installed
in the fuselage
side
you
can recharge
the
battery without
opening
the model.
Diagnosis
(closed
loop)
operation
The
transmitter
can be
connected
directly to the receiver
using
the
Diagnosis
Lead
(Order
No. 8 5105),
for times
when
you
wish
to adjustand
checkyourmodel.
To usethis
facility
the receiver
must
be connected
to a switch
harness
with
integral
charge/diagnosis
socket
(Order
No.
8 5100).
Plugging
in the lead
automatically
switches
off the
transmifter RF
module
(it
can even
be removed).
Closed
Loop operation
...
... saves
curtent.
As the RF module
is
switched off,
the transmitter's
current consumption
is reduced
to about
30% of
normat.
... interferes
with nobody,
since no RF
signal is
transmitted.
... cannot
suffet interference,
because
RF signals
are not
processed
by
the
receiver.
Care
of the transmitter
Storing
Protect
your
EUROPA
mc from'.
.
mechanical
damage
.
ambient temperatures
above
60 degrees
C
(direct
sunshine inside
a car)
.
damp, solvents,
fuel,
exhaust residues
.
dust
(in
your
workshop)
Please
bear in mind
that a rapid
change in
ambient
temperature
(e.9.
when moving
from a warm workshop
to
a cold car)can result
in condensation
insidethe
transmitter,
and dewformation
can
prevent
the transmitter
functioning
properly.
lf
you
think
this is a danger,
carry out a standard
range
check very
carefully,
and allow the
transmitter
plenty
of time to warm
up or cool
down. Check
that the
inside
of
your
transmitter is
completely
dry.
Cleaning
the
transmitter
Please
take
great
care
to avoid liquids
getting
inside
the
transmitter.
Use
a mild household
cleaner
on
the transmitter
case
-
don't
use abrasjve
or
solvent-based
cleaning
agents.
The
best method
of removing
dust is
to use a
soft
paintbrush.
Maintenance
Yout
EUROPA rnc
contains
no
parts
which
need
to be
maintained.
However,
we do recommend
that
you
carry
out regular range
tests,
and check
all working
systems
at
regular intervals.
The
transmitter
battery
Please
note
the following
points:
.
New
bafteries
only achieve
theirfull
capacity
after
about 10 charge/discharge
cycles.
.
Brand-new
batteries
(and packs
which have
not
been used for
a long
time)
should be
given
at least
three
standard
(slow)
charges
before
being rapid-
cnargeo.
.
Do not
rapid-charge
batteries
which
are not
expressly
designed
for it.
.
Charge batteries
only when
the ambient
temperature is
between
0 and 40
degrees
C.
.
Don't
subject
the cells
or leads to mechanical
stress.
.
Replace
batteries
in
good
time, i.e.
before they
are
completely
exhausted.
.
NC
batteries
count as
toxic waste
and must be
disposed
of in the
proper
manner.
Not in
the waste
bin!
Slow-charging
the battery
A
slow, or standard,
charge
(C/'10
charge rate)
can be
calculated
from
the
following
rough
formula:
Charge
current in mA
=
capacity in
mAh divided
by 10
For
example, if
your
transmitter
has a 1350
mAh battery
then
you
should
charge it
at a current
of about 135 mA. At
this rate
the battery would
be fully
charged in 14
to 16
hours. Atthis
currentthe
batterywill
not bedamaged
if the
charge
period
is
exceeded,
or even if
the
pack
is left
connected
to the charger
permanently.
The
MULTIPLEX
Combi-Charger,
Order No.
'14
5540, features
two 140
mA
outputs.
Connect the
transmitter
to one of these
outputs
using the charge lead
supplied.

To maintain full

a

idea
to
give your

a rapid-charge

to time.
