Ce Conformity Declaration - Multiplex 8 5062 Manual De Instrucciones

This is accomplished by holding the SET button pressed in:
a) The central LED now starts to glow (red), in addition to
the left and right LEDs
b) After a further period of about five seconds all the LEDs
go out briefly
c) The central LED flashes red once
Now release the SET button: the set battery type is
LiPo
If you continue to hold the button pressed in, the central
LED flashes red twice
At this point - and not before - release the SET but-
ton: the voltage monitor is now set to five-cell NiXX
batteries
9.2.3 SAFETY-SWITCH LiPo TwinBatt: minimum value memory
For even better monitoring of the power supply, the SAFETY-
SWITCH LiPo TwinBatt features a supplementary minimum
value memory (low voltage memory).
This low voltage memory records any voltage collapses in one
or both batteries during the flight just completed.
Calling up the minimum value memory after the flight:
Before switching the system off, hold both sensor buttons I and
II pressed in simultaneously.
The colour of the left and right LEDs now indicates to you the
minimum voltage values for each battery since the last time the
system was switched on.
Note
Switching the power supply off resets both memories (RESET).
Next time you switch on, the recording process starts again.
9.2.4 SAFETY-SWITCH LiPo TwinBatt: battery backer function
The SAFETY-SWITCH LiPo TwinBatt features an integral bat-
tery backer which enables you to use two receiver batteries for
enhanced security.
If one battery should fail, the second pack assumes the role of
power supply for the receiving system. Under normal circum-
stances the current load of the entire receiving system in the
model is shared by two batteries.
The system is of duplicated construction, i.e. each of the two
power supply paths contains its own electronic switch, a sepa-
rate voltage regulator and a separate voltage monitor for each of
the two batteries.
This lay-out makes it easy for you to identify a defective receiver
battery, or a pack nearing the end of its useful life, and replace it
in good time.
10. S "H
AFETY OLD
If a problem occurs - overheating, component failure, intermittent
contact in the leads or battery - while the system is switched on,
the SAFETY-SWITCH LiPo and SAFETY-SWITCH LiPo Twin-
Batt always remain switched on. The program also invokes a
safety "hold" mode if the user carries out the power-off pro-
cedure incorrectly; in this state it is no longer possible to switch
the system off using the button.
If this should occur, please disconnect the battery from the
switch harness and wait for at least thirty seconds. Re-
connecting the battery re-starts the program, and the switching
function will be available once more.
If this should occur often, please check the condition of your
batteries.

LONG PERIOD

ATTERY
When the system is switched off with a battery still connected,
what is known as a "stand-by" circuit is active.
In this state an idle current of around 5.0 µA (per battery) flows;
this is lower than the self-discharge rate of any battery.
We recommend that you disconnect the battery or batteries from
the SAFETY-SWITCH LiPo / SAFETY-SWITCH LiPo TwinBatt
if you know you will not be flying your model for a long period.
12. U L I
SING I O AND
If you have connected two-cell LiIo batteries (LiIo = Lithium-Ion)
with a nominal cell voltage of 3.6 V to the switch harness, you
should leave the unit set to the default battery type "LiPo" (
8.2.2 or 9.2.2).
It is also possible to use two-cell LiFe batteries (LiFe = Lithium-
Ferrite) with a nominal cell voltage of 3.3 V. In this case you
should change the setting of the switch harness to the battery
type "NiXX" ( 8.2.2 or 9.2.2).
