Product Instructions

Working as an individual device to set the parameters for the ESC

1. Disconnect the battery from the ESC
2. Select the corresponding connection method, and connect the ESC with LCD program box:
   • If the programming line of ESC shares a same line with throttle line, then unplug throttle line from receiver and plug into ESC port of LCD program box correspondingly.
   • If the ESC has independent programming port, then using programming line to connect programming port of ESC with ESC port of LCD program box.
3. Connect the ESC to battery
4. If the connection is correct, LCD program box shows initial screen, press ITEM or button on the LCD program box, the screen shows ESC CONNECTING then it shows the 1st programmable item after a few seconds, which means LCD program box connects with ESC successfully. Press the OK button to save data.
5. For OPTO ESC, a separated battery or UBEC is needed to supply power for LCD programming box from this port.

Note 1: Reset the ESC by the LCD program box. When the connection between ESC and LCD program box is successfully established, press ITEM button for several times until the Restore Default is displayed, press OK button, then all programmable items in the current profile are reset to factory default options.

INSTRUCTIONS

Working as an individual device to set the parameters for the ESC

1. Disconnect the battery from the ESC.
2. Select the corresponding connection method, and connect the ESC with LCD program box.
3. If the programming line of ESC shares a same line with throttle line, then unplug throttle line from receiver and plug into“ ESC” port of LCD program box correspondingly.
4. If the ESC has independent programming port, then using programming line to connect programming port of ESC with“ ESC” port of LCD program box.
5. Connect the ESC to battery.
6. If the connection is correct, LCD program box shows initial screen, press “ ITEM ” or “ OK ”button on the LCD program box, the screen shows ，then it shows the 1st programmable item after a few seconds, which means LCD program box connects with ESC successfully. Press the“ ITEM ” “ ” and“ ” button to select the options, press “ OK ” button to save data.

For OPTO ESC, a separated battery or UBEC is needed to supply power for LCD programming box from this port

Note

1. Reset the ESC by the LCD program box
   • When the connection between ESC and LCD program box is successfully established, press“ ITEM” button for several times until the“ Restore Default” is displayed, press“ OK” button, then all programmable items in the current profile are reset to factory default options.

   • OC Protection: Over currect protection
   • PPM_THR ERROR: The PPM throttole is not in the range
   • UART_THR ERROR: The UART throttle is not in the range
   • UART_THR LOSS: UART throttle loss
   • CAN_THR LOSS: CAN throttle loss
   • BAT_VOT ERROR: The battery voltage is not in the range

PWM throttle signal detection

When the PWM signal device such as the receiver is in normal working state, connect the receiver and LCD program box, Press and hold the buttons for 3 seconds at the same time, Then select“ Input Signal”, it can identify and display the input throttle pulse width and frequency.

ESC/Servo Tester

It works like remote control to adjust the speed for ESC/servo by press the program box’s button.

1. Press and hold the buttons for 3 seconds at the same time, then select “Output Signal”.
2. Press the button respectively , the throttle will be increased or decreased in units of“ 1us”, long press the or button for about 3 seconds to quickly increase or decrease the throttle.
3. Press the “ITEM” button, the throttle will decrease in units of “100us”, press the “OK” button, the throttle will increase in units of “100us”.

Working as a Lipo battery voltmeter to measure the voltage of the whole battery pack and each cell

1. Battery: 2-8SLi-Polymer/Li-Lon/LiHV/Li-Fe
2. Precision: ±0.1V
3. Usage: Plug the battery balance charge connector into the “BATTERY CHECK” port of the LCD program box separately, (Please make sure that the negative pole points to the“-” symbol on the program box).

Update the firmware of LCD program box

The LCD program box should be updated because the functions of ESC are improved continously, the method is as follows:

1. Provide power for LCD program box by ESC, battery or external power supply device, the power supply range is 5-12.6V.
2. Connect the Bluetooth module to the “ESC” port of the LCD program box.
3. Download APP and install it on your phone, after install it successfully, open your phone’s bluetooth, find“xxx-BLE-XXXX”, then click“Connect”.
