IFHSPECPRO-72RADIO CONTROL HOBBY TRANSMITTER

2. Installing the Steel Antenna into the transmitter a. Insert the steel antenna into the antenna hole of the Aurora 9, and turn it to the clock wise direction to tighten up. b. Turn the antenna clockwise until it is securely screwed into the transmitter. Range Check Function Before each flight, it is critical that you perform a range check to confirm the signal between the receiver and transmitter is appropriate. Unlike 2.4GHz system the FM/PPM or PCM radios, use an extendable steel antenna. Therefore, the method of range check has to be different. Lower the transmitter antenna all the way to reduce the transmitter signal range to minimum level. Once the antenna collapsed it will shortening the range to approximately 30 meters or 100 feet. During the range check process, you should walk away from the secured aircraft carrying the transmitter to a minimum distance of approximately 30 meters or 100 feet without control loss. Warning! - Do the range check before each flying session to confirm the radio system is working properly. - Do the range check before the engine or motor is started. - Turn on the system as explained above and make sure all servos and control surfaces are working properly during the range check process within the range. - If any control surface is not moving properly, DO NOT fly the aircraft until the problem is solved. - If you are unable to accomplish a successful range check of 30 meters or 100 feet, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLY. Connecting (Frequency Setting) Spectra Pro uses synthesize technology does not require classic crystal chips to change its frequencies. Plug into the Aurora 9 transmitter and select your preferred Frequency Channel matches with your receivers. In the case of multiple models are being used from one transmitter, you can connect as many Hitec receivers to your transmitter as necessary, one model per one model memory will be used. Use one of the following connecting meth- ods to add additional Hitec receivers to your transmitter. Note - Connecting must be established within 15 feet of the transmitter and receiver. - Make sure there is no one next to you are in connecting process. - In case of synthesized receiver is being used for the connecting process, setup the frequency channel from the Aurora 9 first then turn on the receiver. Again, we really appreciated for your purchase of Spectra Pro FM Synthe sized Module, and hope you to enjoy all the great feature of Aurora 9 with your FM series receivers. secure the aircraft and walk away approximatery 30meter without control loss 30 meter or 100 feet General Use Guidelines General Use Guidelines To turn the system on and off, use the following sequence at all times. Transmitter Antenna Installation The conventional steel antenna (included with the module) required to install prior to use. You are required to remove 2.4GHz antenna and the antenna holder before the installation. 1. Disassembling the Antenna Mount and Folding Antenna a. Snap the antenna apart as shown in picture #1. Carefully remove the mod ule from the back of the Aurora 9 transmitter. b. Remove the antenna mount from the transmitter by turning it to the counter clock wise direction.
