LED Voltage Lights 5V or 6V Monitoring


Share on your Facebook Page


On power up, the unit sequences through its LEDs as follows:
(using the upper 5.0 to 6.0 legends to describe the LEDs) 5.2 and 5.6 LEDs flash briefly. The 5.0 LED flashes 4 times The 6.0 LED flashes 4 times The LEDs run up the scale from 5.0 to 6.0 then down again.
Finally the 5.0 LED flashes fast.
NOTE: this fast flashing of the 5.0 LED is what indicates the unit is currently set for 5V. After that, one LED lights on the Monitor to indicate current receiver pack voltage as read from the lower 4.0 to 5.0 scale.

To change the Monitor from 5V to 6V working it must be switched off during the power up sequence while the 6.0 LED is flashing 4 times.

Next and all subsequent times it is turned on (this does not have to be done immediately) the unit will be set to 6V working; this will be indicated by the 6.0 LED flashing fast at the end of the power up sequence. The upper 5.0 to 6.0 scale must now be used to read the pack voltage.

The Monitor can be set back to 5V working by switching it off during the power up sequence whilst the 5.0V LED is flashing 4 times.

Important

when using the monitor always ensure that the correct LED flashes fast at the end of the power up sequence to ensure it monitoring the correct range:
For a 4 cell NiCd/NiMH receiver pack the 5.0 LED must flash.
For a 5 cell NiCd/NiMH receiver pack the 6.0 LED must flash.

DO NOT switch off the battery back whilst the Monitor is going through its power up sequence unless you are intentionally changing it's setting.

Monitoring Voltage 5V or 6V selectable (default is 5V)
