Changing the settings
The ESC
has a number of programmable modes that can be altered to suite a variety of functions. Each set of green LED flashes/beeps represents the programmable mode
(1 flash = Running mode, 2 flashes = Drag brake force and 3 flahes = Auto-lipo settings etc..) and each set of red LED flashes/beeps represents that modes value. See the table
below for all the programmable modes and their values. When you enter the setup mode you need to keep the button pressed until you enter the desired programme mode
(green flashes/beeps). Once you reach that mode release the button and that will allow you to change the mode value (red flashes/beeps). You need to switch off the ESC to
save the settings then re-do the process to change to a different mode or mode value setting. If you lose your way with setup then you can return the unit to default settings by
turning on the ESC, keeping the transmitter in neutral and pressing the setup button for 3 seconds. Both red and green LED's will flash together 3 times to confirm this.
While switching on the ESC hold down the setup button. Continue to hold the setup button while the red LED flashes. Continue to hold the setup button until the green LED starts to flash.
