2. Throttle Range Setting (Throttle Range Calibration)
In order to make the ESC fit the throttle range of your transmitter, you must calibrate it for the following cases;
otherwise the ESC cannot work properly.
1.
Begin to use a new ESC;
2.
Begin to use a new transmitter;
3.
Change the settings of neutral position of the throttle stick, ATV or EPA parameters, etc.
There are
3 points
need to be set, they are the end point of ‘forward’, the end point of ‘backward’ and the neutral point.
The following pictures show how to set the throttle range.
A.
Switch off the ESC, turn on the transmitter,
set the direction of throttle channel
to ‘REV’, set the ‘EPA/ATV’ value of throttle channel
to ‘100%’, and disable the ABS function of your transmitter.
B.
Hold the ‘SET’ key (Note1 ) and then switch on
the ESC, and release the ‘SET’ key as soon
as the red LED begins to flash. (Note2 )
Note 1:
The ‘SET’ key of S18 is beside the main switch of the controller.
Note 2:
If you don’t release the ‘SET’ key as soon as the red LED begins to flash, the ESC will enter the program mode,
in such a case, please switch off the ESC and re-calibrate the throttle range again from step A to step D.
C.
Set the 3 points according to the steps
shown in the pictures on the right side.
1) The neutral point
Move the throttle stick at the neutral point,
and then click the SET key, the green LED
flashes 1 time.
2) The end point of forward direction

forward direction, and then click the SET key,
the green LED flashes 2 times.
3) The end point of backward direction
