FS RC transmitter is provided (optional) for HUNTER 2.0. In this product, we use the left-hand-throttle design. Refer to Figure 2.8 for its 

definition and function.

This section introduces the basic operation and development of the HUNTER 2.0 platform using the CAN bus 

interface.

The  function  of  the  button  is  defined  as:  SWC  and  SWD  are 

temporarily disabled. Among which SWA is the parking switch 

lever,  turn  to  the  top  to  release  the  parking  mode,  turn  to 

bottom  is  the  parking  mode.  (The  remote  control  can  be 

performed normally after the parking mode is released.) SWB 

for control mode selection, top position for command control 

and  the  middle  position  for  remote  control  mode;  S1  is  the 

throttle button, which controls the forward and backward of 

HUNTER 2.0; S2 controls the steering of the front wheels, and 

POWER is the power button, press and hold it to turn on.

As shown in Figure 2.9, the chassis body of HUNTER 2.0 is in parallel with X 

axis of the established reference coordinate system. In the remote control 

mode, push the remote control stick S1 forward to move in the positive X 

direction, push S1 backward to move in the negative X direction. When S1 

is pushed to the maximum value, the movement speed in the positive X 

direction  is  the  maximum,  When  pushed  S1  to  the  minimum,  the 

movement  speed  in  the  negative  direction  of  the  X  direction  is  the 

maximum; the remote control stick S2 controls the steering of the front 

wheels of the car body, push S2 to the left, and the chassis turns to the left, 

pushing it to the maximum, and the steering angle is the largest, S2 Push 

to the right, the car will turn to the right, and push it to the maximum, at 

this time the right steering angle is the largest. In the control command 

mode, the positive value of the linear velocity means movement in the 

positive direction of the X axis, and the negative value of the linear velocity 

means movement in the negative direction of the X axis; the steering angle 

is the steering angle of the inner wheel.

A reference coordinate system can be defined and fixed on the chassis body as shown in Figure 2.9 in accordance with ISO 8855.

3.1 Use and operation

The basic operating procedure of startup is shown as follows:

Check

Shutdown

Emergency stop

Startup

Check the condition of HUNTER 2.0. Check whether there are 

significant anomalies; if so, please contact the after-sale service 

personal for support;

Check  the  state  of  emergency-stop  switches.  Make  sure  both 

emergency stop buttons are released;

For first-time use, check whether Q3 (drive power supply switch) 

on the rear panel has been pressed down; if so, please release it, 

and then the drive will be powered off.

Press the button Q3 to cut off the power supply.

Press down emergency push button on the top of HUNTER 2.0 

chassis body.

Press Q3 button, and normally, the voltmeter will display correct 

battery voltage and front and rear lights will be both switched on;

Check the battery voltage, the normally voltage range is 24~26.8V, 

if there is continuous “beep-beep-beep...” sound from beeper,it 

means the battery voltage is low, please charge the battery.
