Product Usage Instructions

Battery Wire Connection

When connecting the battery, pay attention to polarity: incorrect connection will damage the ESC and Battery. As shown in the figure above, connect the positive (+) wire to the (+) battery port, and the negative (-) wire to the (-) battery port.

Motor Wire Connection

1. Sensored Mode: When using a sensored brushless motor, the three A/B/C ESC wires must connect to the three A/B/C motor wires correspondingly. It is necessary to connect the Sensor wire to the Sensor socket on the ESC. Do not change the wires sequence optionally.
2. Sensorless Mode: When using a sensorless brushless motor, the #A, #B, #C wires of the ESC can be connected with the motor wires freely (without any sequence). If the motor runs in the opposite direction, please swap any two wire connections.

Receiver Wire Connection

The signal wire supplies 6.0V to the receiver, servo, etc. So there is no need to connect an additional battery. External power connected to the receiver may damage the ESC.

Connection

Battery Wire Connection

When connecting the battery, pay attention to polarity: incorrect connection will damage the ESC and Battery. As shown in the figure above, connect the positive (+) wire is connected to (+) battery port, and the negative (-) wire is connected to the (-) battery port.

Motor Wire Connection

1. Sensored Mode :
   When using a sensored brushless motor, the three A/B/C ESC wires must connect to the three A/B/C motor wires correspondingly. It is necessary to connect the Sensor wire to the “Sensor” socket on the ESC. Don’t change the wires sequence optionally.

2. Sensorless Mode:
   When using a sensorless brushless motor, the #A, #B, #C wires of the ESC can be connected with the motor wires freely (without any sequence). If the motor runs in the opposite direction, please swap any two wire connections.

Receiver Wire Connection

Software Functions and Settings

Power On/Off ESC

1. Press the power button then the ESC will be powered on.
2. Press and holding the power button until the all LEDs died out, then the ESC will be powered off.

(Note: Please place the throttle trigger on the neutral position: within 10%, otherwise the ESC can not be powered off.) Throttle Calibration

1. Connect the ESC with the battery and receiver well, then turn on the transmitter.
2. Press and hold the power button until the blue LED is on solid, the motor have a long beep at the same time, then release the power button, the red led will be on solid, the ESC enters to the calibration mode.
3. Pull the throttle trigger to the full throttle position, the blue LED blinks three times and the motor beeps once, the full throttle position is saved.
4. Push the throttle trigger to the full brake position, the blue LED blinks three times and the motor beeps twice, the full brake position is saved.
5. Release the throttle trigger to the neutral position, the blue LED blinks three times and the motor beeps three times, the throttle calibration is completed.
6. The ESC can support reverse throttle calibration, if the transmitter throttle set to reverse (it means pull the throttle will go to 1000 throttle position/normally is 2000, and push the throttle will go to 2000 throttle position/normally is 1000), then you do the throttle calibration the same way as usual (as above), it will not have any effects on the ESC forward and revers way even if the transmitter throttle set reverse.

Remark: No need to restart the ESC again after throttle calibration finished. Do not move the throttle during the time of the blue LED blinks.

LED Status

1. During operation

Note: When you pull the throttle from neutral position to full throttle position, the Blue LED will blink, and the blink frequency will go faster when the throttle goes higher.

When some protection is activated

• The RED LED is always on solid once the power button is pressed.
• The RED LED blinks, single flash between every one second. Repeat like “¤ ¤ ¤” indicates that the voltage is abnormal.
• The RED LED blinks, double flash between every one second. Repeat like “¤¤ ¤¤ ¤¤” indicates that the temperature is abnormal.
• The RED LED blinks, single and double flash alternately between every one second. Repeat like “¤ ¤¤ ¤ ¤¤ ¤ ¤¤” indicates that both of the voltage and temperature is abnormal at the same time. The RED LED will not have any responds even the voltage or
• temperature is abnormal if not detect the signal.
• The BLUE LED blinks,double flash between every two seconds. Repeat like “¤¤ ¤¤ ¤¤” indicates that the throttle is abnormal.  (No throttle, or the throttle is not on the neutral position)

Throttle Signal

1. The ESC can support the 450Hz maximum PPM throttle signal.

2. The ESC throttle protection will be activated under the following situation, and the BLUE LED blinks double flash:
   The throttle trigger do not placed on the neutral position when the ESC turns on.
   Lost the throttle signal.

3. If the ESC lost the throttle signal during the operation, the BLUE LED will blink double flash, and the ESC will start to work again until the throttle signal is back to normal.

Sensored & Sensorless

1. The censored mode is activated once the ESC detected the hall sensor signal at any time.
2. The ESC will work on sensorless mode once the ESC didn’t detect the hall sensor signal at any time.
3. The ESC will have a slight power drop and restored soon during the moment of sensored and sensorless mode switching.
4. The PWM driving frequency will be selected automatically by the ESC on sensorless mode, and the manual setting is invalid.
5. It is invalid to set the brake PMW frequency less than 1KHz and forced recognized as 1KHZ, if the ESC is on sensorless mode.
6. Boost and turbo functions are not available on sensorless mode.

Boost & Turbo

1. After the boost or turbo timing is triggered, the RPM and current will be increased, and the battery/ESC/motor will be heating, so setting the proper timing and timing increased rate, and control the time of timing will effect the battery/ESC/motor service life.
2. The difference of the Boost and Turbo Timing: The Boost timing will be triggered even though you do not pull the throttle trigger to the full throttle position. The Turbo timing will be triggered only when you pull the throttle trigger to the full throttle position.
3. The Boost timing plus the Turbo timing is equal to the final opened timing when the throttle reaches its maximum position, and the final total timing is 60 degrees （for Beast Pro 150A total timing is 15 degrees). For example: If Boost timing set at 45 degrees, and Turbo Timing set at 50 degrees, so when the throttle reaches its maximum position, the Boost timing will be 45 degrees, and Turbo Timing only can be opened at 15 degrees.
4. If set the low voltage or over temperature protection, and the protection is activated, then all the timing will be closed.

Protection

1. High Voltage Protection:
   If the ESC detects the voltage too high(Higher than the ESC standard voltage), when the ESC turns on, and the voltage protection was not set “OFF”, then the voltage protection will be activated, and the maximum throttle output will be limited within 50%.(The high voltage protection only works on the moment of the ESC turns on, and it will not work on the other stages even it detects the high voltage, once the high voltage protection opened, even though the voltage comes down to the normal voltage, the protection will not be relieved.)

2. Low Voltage Protection:
   If the ESC detects a voltage less than the set value at any time, and this voltage keeps for a while, then the low voltage protection is activated, and the maximum throttle output will be limited within 50%.(Once the low voltage protection activated, even though the voltage comes back to normal, the protection can not be relieved.)

3. Thermal Protection:
   The output throttle from the ESC will be limited (not over 50%) with the thermal value you have preset.(The Thermal protection will be dismissed when the ESC temperature drop to 65℃)

4. If the voltage protection and temperature protection set off, and when the voltage and temperature become abnormal, the LED status will indicate the problems correspondingly, but will not limit the throttle output and will not close all ESC timing.

5. If some issues happen, causing ESC to drive the motor failure, it will go into protection; you will hear the motor “beep beep beep”,and it will stop beeping until the release throttle to neutral position at least 0.2s.

Bluetooth

1. Reset password: When the ESC turns on, press and hold the power button for around 10 seconds, and the ESC will restore the Bluetooth password to default setting 0000.
2. With ZTW Bluetooth, connected the ZTW app to the ESC, the user can program parameters, upgrade firmware and check the real-time data of the ESC on the APP.
3. Due to the range limit of Bluetooth, the operational distance is around 10 meters.(If there are many metals or other strong interference signals or obstacles around will short the operational distance)
4. The Bluetooth name can not be changed.
5. The Bluetooth connection will be failed during the ESC throttle calibration process.

Programmable Items

1. The user can program parameters at any status if the ESC turns on, and new programmed parameters will be took effect immediately, no need to restart the ESC, it means the programming parameters can be completed online, so it can provide a very intuitive feeling between the before programming and after programming. There will be some impacts on the battery/ESC/motor if you program some parameters when the motor in a high-speed rotation. For example, if you change the motor rotation when the motor in a high-speed rotation, then the ESC will drive the motor reverse immediately, but the motor can not be reverse immediately because of its inertia, then it will cause a big current and vibration. Or when the Boost or Turbo timing opened, but you set it off when the motor in a high-speed rotation, it also will cause a big current, so we would like to recommend not programming parameters when the motor in a high-speed rotation.
2. The programming parameters are saved in the ESC embedded flash memory, and the flashed card have a limited programming life ( around 10K times), so don’t program the ESC very often.

Real-time Data

1. The real-time data can be read only when the ESC has the throttle signal.
2. The real-time data is just a reference data with±10% accuracy, if you want to get the more accurate real-time data, you need to use the more professional equipment.
3. The description of the real-time data items:

Firmware Upgrade

1. If the ESC firmware upgrade failed during the upgrading process, please restart the ESC again, and must upgrade the ESC firmware via the APP again (all the other functions are not available), the ESC will get right after the firmware upgraded successfully.
2. The Red LED will blink a faint light when the ESC in the firmware upgrade mode, and the Blue LED will blink a faint light when the ESC have data transmission.
3. Please do not turn off the ESC during the time of the ESC firmware upgrading process. ( And the ESC only can be switched off after pressing the power button around 5 seconds)
