Micro IPD receiver
Dear customer,
Congratulations on your choice of a MULTIPLEX IPD receiver.
IPD stands for a new generation of PPM receivers, combining
the advantages of PPM
Fast response to control signals
Compatibility with all current FM-PPM radio control
transmitters with 2 to 9 channels
with the advantages of PCM
Only valid control signals are passed on to the servos;
valid signals previously received are substituted for any
invalid signals which are picked up
Programmable fail-safe positions, which are passed to
the servos if the IPD receiver picks up no valid control
signals for a period longer than 0.5 sec.
Advantages of IPD to you as user, are:
Faster response from your model
As the model reacts more quickly and accurately, it is possible
to start manoeuvres later (turns when flying, pre-turn braking
when driving).
Reduced sensitivity to interference
The IPD receiver completely suppresses momentary interfer-
ence (duration less than 0.5 sec) at close range, and reduces
its effect at greater range.
No servo jitter when the transmitter is switched off
If no valid signals arrive at the IPD receiver for a period longer
than 0.5 sec, the servos run to the programmed fail-safe posi-
tions (safety settings, e.g. motor off, controls to neutral). This
helps considerably to prevent damage to the model and/or
the receiving system.
We are confident you will have many hours of pleasure with your
new receiver

AFETY NOTES
Programming the fail-safe positions.
In its state as supplied, the receiver has no set fail-safe
positions (see: State as supplied: stand-by).
Check all the functions on the model, including the
fail-safe programming, before every flight or run.
Check the electronics and mechanical systems of your
model at regular intervals. This should always include a
range check, as described in the instructions supplied
with your transmitter.

RYSTAL
Use your receiver only with genu-
ine MULTIPLEX crystals.
The receiver and transmitter crystals
must bear the same
number. Receiver crystals have a
yellow sleeve, and are printed with
the code letter E before the channel number.

ONNECTIONS
Battery: connect the plug on the switch harness to the
receiver socket marked B/D (battery/diagnosis), or any
vacant receiver socket.
MPX connector system:
Up to five servos with MULTIPLEX
plugs can be connected directly
to the receiver.
adaptors (Order No. 8 5060) are
required to connect servos 6 and
7.
UNI connector system:
Up to seven servos with UNI plugs
can be connected directly to the
receiver.

NSTALLATION TIPS
Keep the receiver well away from powerful electric mo-
tors and electrical ignition systems. If the model has an
ignition battery, keep it as far away as possible from
the receiver battery; 150 mm is a good figure.
Protect the receiver from vibration (pack it in foam,
and stow it loosely in the model).
Don't alter the length of the aerial (90 cm).
Deploy the aerial in as straight a line as possible from
the receiver. Don't coil it up!
Wherever possible avoid routing the aerial over or
close to other parts of the receiving system or power
supply, or parallel to servo leads.
Don't deploy the aerial inside any model component
which is reinforced with carbon fibres (shielding effect)
Don't glue or otherwise attach the aerial to any model
component which is reinforced with carbon fibres
(shielding effect).

TATE AS SUPPLIED TAND
It is not possible to devise a fail-safe position which is
really suitable for every model and every situation. For this
reason IPD receivers are supplied in stand-by mode as
standard; i.e. they switch to stand-by mode if no valid
signals are picked up for a period longer than 0.5 sec.
Stand-by means this: the receiver does not pass any signals
to the servo (see also IPD glossary). As soon as the receiver
detects „good" signals again, it resumes working normally.
Once you have programmed your chosen fail-safe positions
into the receiver for the first time, it is not possible to set it
back to stand-by mode. However, the fail-safe positions can
be changed at any time.
