Diagnosis Mode - Multiplex RX-5-SYNTH IPD CAR Manual De Instrucciones

Sequence
1. Switch the transmitter on, then switch the receiver on. The
LED flashes:
1,6 sec
LED Code 3
2. Press the button (the LED goes out), and hold it pressed in
until the LED comes on again (after about 2 seconds. The
LED then flashes as follows:
1,6 sec
LED Code 4
Exception: RX-SYNTH set-up lead: In this case the LED
does not glow when the button is pressed in!
You can re-activate the IPD filter by either of the following meth-
ods:
•
Switch the receiver off, then on again
or
•
Hold the button pressed in again for >2 seconds (see above)
! Note:
In the interests of safety the IPD filter should only be switched
off for range checks or other experimental purposes. Normal
driving operations should always be carried out with the IPD
filter activated.
15. R RESET
ECEIVER
The receiver settings can be switched back to the factory default
values. All settings (e.g. RF channel, FAIL-SAFE settings) are
lost when you do this, and are reset to the factory defaults.
Sequence
1. Switch the transmitter on, then switch the receiver on. The
LED flashes:
1,6 sec
LED Code 3
2. Press the button and hold it pressed in until the LED goes
out - after about 10 seconds. The LED now flashes the con-
firmation signal:
1,6 sec
LED Code 5
The signal output is switched off after you carry out a RESET.
The receiver can only be used again after switching it off, then
on again ( 10. ).
A RESET can also be triggered without a transmitter signal. For
this to work an RF channel must have been set previously.

RROR COUNTER
The receiver features three internal error counters for the
following errors:
•
Low voltage
•
Reception blind spots (severe field strength fluctuations)
•
Signal interference
The LED displays the sum of the errors in the three error
counters as soon as an error is detected:
1,6 sec
LED Code 6
1,6 sec
LED Code 7
1,6 sec
LED Code 8
In our experience the errors described here occur during most
flights. Signal errors in particular occur quite often with FM/PPM
transmission. Generally speaking, the operator does not even
notice them, but the highly sensitive signal error counter still
registers them. After a few sessions, with subsequent analysis of
the error count, you will find the error counter helpful as an early

method of detecting irregularities in operating the model, in order
to eliminate problems (e.g. in the power supply circuit,
interference caused by the power system, electrical "noise"
caused by metal-to-metal contact, etc.
16.1 Low voltage error count
The counter counts the seconds during which the voltage falls
below 4.4 V, either briefly or constantly.
16.2 Field strength fluctuations error count
(reception blind spots)
The counter counts the seconds in which the field strength col-
lapses. Instances of constant low field strength (transmitter off)
are not counted.
16.3 Signal interference error count
The counter records the seconds in which the signal packet is
not within the prescribed format, e.g. too many, too short or too
long servo signals.
If voltage falls (voltage collapse), reception blind spots and
signal interference are not counted. If a blind spot occurs, signal
interference is not counted. However, signal errors often occur
before or after a collapse in field strength or voltage, and these
are counted.
Note: Loss of error counts
If the voltage falls below 3.0 V for a longer period, the receiver's
processor will restart. If this should happen, the values for all
three error counters are lost.
Note: power-on delay
The error counters only start operating after a delay of 20
seconds after the receiver is switched on.
Note: error counter when the IPD filter is OFF
If the IPD filter is switched off, the receiver does not count the
signal errors, and no errors are displayed. Errors are only
displayed again when the IPD filter is re-activated (

IAGNOSIS MODE
Diagnosis mode can be helpful when you need to carry out
adjustments on the model, but the transmitter is not to radiate an
RF signal. The transmitter (MULTIPLEX transmitter with multi-
function socket) is connected directly to the receiver using an
MPX switch harness with charge socket and a diagnosis lead,
# 8 5105. The switch harness must be connected to the socket
marked "B/D" (D = Diagnosis)
For MULTIPLEX PROFI CAR series transmitters the Diagnosis
Adaptor, # 8 5110, is available. This is plugged into the
transmitter in place of the RF module. The other end of the lead
is connected directly to the receiver socket marked "B/D" by
means of the UNI connector.
When you switch the system on, the receiver detects that the
diagnosis lead is connected. The signal packet is received
directly from the transmitter via the diagnosis lead, and not via
the RF link.
The RF signal is not restored automatically when you disconnect
the Diagnosis lead.
The RF signal is not restored automatically when you disconnect
the Diagnosis lead. The receiver must first be switched on again.
Note:
First switch the receiver OFF, then the transmitter OFF, then
disconnect the Diagnosis lead.
During Diagnosis operations the LED glows constantly. The
error counter does not operate during Diagnosis operations.
