Switching On The Transmitter; Commissioning The Receiver - Carson 501000 Mode D'emploi

Loading the rechargeable batteries for the transmitter
● Switch off the transmitter and connect a suitable charging
cable (not included in the scope of supply) to the charging
socket.
ATTENTION! Connect the charger only if the rechargeable
batteries are inserted in the transmitter!
Conventional batteries (1.5V) must not be charged any
more, there is a risk of fire and explosion!
● Only charge rechargeable batteries intended for that purpo-
se!
● When connecting a charge cable, imperatively observe the
correct polarity of the connecting plug. The inner contact of
the charge socket has to be connected to the minus connec-
tion (-) and the outside contact to the plus connection (+) of
the charger.
● The charging current should be approx. 1/10 of the capacity
value of the inserted rechargeable batteries. With rechargea-
ble batteries with a capacity of 2000mAh this corresponds to
a charging current of approx. 200mA and the charging time is
approx. 14 hours.d
● Do not use any quick-chargers in order to avoid any damages
to the internal strip conductors and connections.
● No chargers can be used that briefly interrupt the charging
current in order to measure the current rechargeable battery
voltage.
● A protective diode in the charging current circuit of the trans-
mitter acts as a free battery connection when the charging
current is switched off; thus, the voltage cannot be measured.
For such chargers, the rechargeable batteries must be char-
ged outside the transmitter.
●
With NiCd rechargeable batteries a memory effect can occur.
If NiCd rechargeable batteries are charged when they are not
fully discharged, their capacity diminishes in the course of
time. Thus, such rechargeable batteries must be discharged
with an appropriate charger outside of the transmitter and
then charged completely again.

Commissioning the Receiver

Receiver connection
The receiver allows you to connect up to 6 servos and a receiver
accumulator, which are equipped with Futaba/JR connectors
(with reverse polarity protection). To simultaneously connect six
servos and one rechargeable receiver battery, an additional Y-
cable is necessary (not included).
● When connecting servos and drive controls, always make
sure to pay close attention to the correct polarity of the plug
connectors.
● The wrap connection for the positive lead (yellow, white or
orange, depending on the manufacturer) must be connected
to the inner pin contact. The wrap connection for the negative
lead (black or brown, depending on the manufacturer) must
be connected to the outer pin contact.
● Depending on the model for which you use the remote control
system, the connection as well as the power supply of the
receiver and the servos can be effected in different ways.
Installing the receiver
The installation of the receiver depends on the model. For this
reason, you should always follow the recommendations of the
model manufacturer regarding receiver installation. Regardless
of the model, you should always try to install the receiver so that
it is protected from dust, dirt, moisture and vibration in the best
possible way. Two-sided adhesive foam (servo tape) or even
rubber rings that hold the foam-wrapped receiver securely in
place are suitable for fastening.

CARSON 6 Channel Transmitter 501000

Switching on the transmitter

● When the rechargeable batteries are charged or when new
batteries are inserted, pull out the antenna of the transmitter
all the way and, for test purposes, switch the transmitter on
via the function switch (see figure 1, Pos. 13).
● To do so, slide the control button from the bottom to the top
(slanted). The green battery control LED (see figure 1, pos.
9) lights up briefly and a short beep tone signals adequate
power supply of the transmitter.
●
If the voltage supply falls below 8.5 V, the red LED starts
blinking to indicate undervoltage. In this case, you should
stop operating your model as quickly as possible. For further
operation of the transmitter the rechargeable batteries have
to be recharged or new batteries have to be inserted. To pre-
vent this scenario, you should stop operating your transmitter
when the supply voltage drops to 9.0 V.
● In order to avoid the memory effect of NiCd rechargeable bat-
teries, you should connect the charger only when the rechar-
geable batteries are completely discharged.
Warning!
The length of the aerial wire (1) has a precisely determined
length. Therefore the aerial wire must not be wound up,
wrapped up or cut. This would decrease the range signifi-
cantly and thus pose a considerable safety risk.
Feed the aerial wire out of the model through an opening in the
body directly behind the receiver. To do so, you should
ideally use an aerial tube, which may be supplied with the model
or which can be obtained as an accessory.
