KAVAN V5 - Návod k použití operačního systému ECOS

Úvod

Operační systém ECOS je nové uživatelské rozhraní optimalizované pro vysílače s monochromatickým displejem. Staví na logice operačního systému ETHOS, takže se s ním je snadné a rychlé se naučit.

Pokud máte dotazy ohledně vysílače V5 a jeho provozu, kontaktujte technické a servisní pracovníky firmy KAVAN Europe s.r.o. e-mailem (info@kavanrc.com pro všeobecné technické informace, servis@kavanrc.com pro servis) nebo telefonicky (+420 466 260 133 pro všeobecné technické informace, +420 463 358 700 pro servis), v pracovní době 8:00–16:00, od pondělí do pátku).

Toto je výchozí obrazovka během provozu a v pohotovostním režimu. Zobrazuje název modelu, hodnoty trimů, aktuální výstupní hodnoty kanálů a stav nabití akumulátoru vysílače.

Vysílač V5 využívá sadu navigačních tlačítek, která ovládají všechny úkony v uživatelském rozhraní. Každé z navigačních tlačítek otevírá speciální nabídku (Monitor kanálů, Nastavení modelu, Nastavení vysílače, Telemetrie) a slouží také k nastavování hodnot jednotlivých položek nabídky. Uživatelské rozhraní V5 je optimalizováno pro ovládání pomocí pouze těchto 4 tlačítek.

Internal RF

Mode selects the radio mode according to the protocol of your receiver
- OFF - the radio transmission is turned off.
- ACCESS - the radio is in the ACCESS transmission protocol mode
- ACCST D16 - the radio is in the ACCST D16 transmission protocol mode
Ch. Range sets the maximum channel range
- CH1–8 - Available in all modes. Allows you to activate the Racing mode.
  - Racing mode offers superior latency (~ 4 ms), but works only with digital servos and with a maximum of 8 channels.
- CH1–16 - Available in all modes.
- CH1–24 - Available in ACCESS mode only.
RxNum allows you to define a custom receiver ID (00–63). The naming of the receiver is done automatically when the receiver is paired for the first time. This name can be changed at any time.
Failsafe emergency rates are available in 5 modes:
- None set - the Failsafe emergency mode is turned off.
- Hold - the receiver maintains the rates as they were before the signal was lost.
- Custom - the receiver keeps the rate value on all channels as you preselect it. You can choose a mode on each channel separately.
- No pulses - when the signal is lost, the receiver does not send a control signal to the rates on any channel. To use this type, select it from the menu and wait 9 seconds for the Fail-safe setting change to take effect.
