USING THE TX-10 WITH A LOW OFF ESC.
The TX-10 is the best TX handpiece for use with RCS
LOW OFF
ESC’s such as the # OMEGA-3v7 using RCS AV1
program. The TX-10 hand piece is essentially a 5 channel stick R/C in a smaller case.
Before you switch the system on, make sure the large throttle knob is fully CCW (OFF). The direction switch will be
automatically centered. If you don’t do this the ESC cannot start up when switched “ON”.
USING RCS ESC’s WITH Av1 PROGRAMS.
The OMEGA-3v7 ESC was calibrated at the factory and should not need re-calibration. The OMEGA-3v7 instructions
show how to calibrate if needed.
The large knob controls channel # 1 the throttle. Make sure the knob is fully CCW before switching on. Otherwise the
RCS # OMEGA-3v7 ESC cannot switch ON. This is the same as the Channel # 1 stick being fully down.
Unless binding, switch ON the TX-10 first & then the ESC.
1. The direction switch is the same as the Ch # 3 elevator stick.
From neutral, push the switch forwards once to set the ESC into forwards direction.
Like an elevator stick it will spring back to the off position when released.
2. From the OFF position twist the large knob to the right (clockwise, CW) to ramp the speed up.
To change from forwards to reverse firstly twist the large knob fully to the left (CCW) to the stop.
Once the loco is completely stopped pull the switch back and release it to get the ESC back to neutral.
Then pull the switch back again to set the direction to reverse.
Then twist the large knob to the right (clockwise, CW) to ramp the speed up in reverse.
N.B The TX-10 cannot be used with any ESC’s using the RCS BV1 PROGRAM.
To set forward. With the
ESC in neutral, push the
direction switch forwards &
then release it.
Twist the big knob
clockwise (CW) to increase
the loco speed.
To reverse the loco, return
the big knob fully to the left
(CCW) and pull the switch
back twice and release it.
Twist the big knob
clockwise (CW) to increase
the loco speed.
