PC Program K-KONFIG
To program a KONTRONIK ESC by ProgUNIT a
Windows™ PC and the K-KONFIG PC software is
needed. This program can be downloaded form the
homepage www.kontronik.com.
Connect the ProgUNIT to a USB port on your
computer. Connect your ESC and power it up. Start
the K-KONFIG program. The following screen will be
displayed which allows the adjustment of the
available parameters.
The following parameters can be changed in the
different sections.
General:
o BEC-Voltage - output voltage of the BEC. Be
sure that your receiver and servos can handle
this chosen voltage.
Limits: Min 5000mV - Max 8000mV
Default: 5600mV
o Reverse rotation - changes the rotational
direction of the motor. Changing two of the
motor wires can also do this.
Battery
o Battery type – Select the used Battery type
(NiCd/NiMH, LiPo, LiFePo)
Default: LiPo
Caution: necessary for correct function of ESC
o Cut off voltage / cell - the cut off / slow down
voltage can be adjusted here.
Limits: NiCd/NiMH 700mV - 1200mV
LiPo 2700mV - 4000mV
LiFePo 1800mV - 2600mV
Caution: too low values will damage the battery
o Under voltage cut off – behavior is battery
empty of activated capacity limit is reached. Cut
off instead of limiting the power of the motor
until the voltage can be held is activated by -
cut of. In helicopter mode the power is slowly
decreased until the motor comes to a complete
stop.
o Capacity limit - set the maximum discharge
capacity limit. After reaching the set capacity
the battery management begins.
Limits: Min 0.0Ah - Max 1000.0Ah
Default: 0.0 means not active
RPM control
