    B --> E["Output"]

NOTICE: Do not cut, kink, or modify the antenna. Damage to the coaxial portion of the antenna will reduce the performance of the antenna. Shortening or cutting off the 31mm tip may reduce the range to a small fraction of what it should be.

SR415 RECEVIER INSTALLATION (NO AVC)

Use double sided servo tape, hook and loop tape or foam rubber to mount the SR415 reciever securely where it is protected and isolated from vibration.

SRS6000 AVC RECEIVER INSTALLATION

Install the SRS6000 receiver in the vehicle before binding the transmitter and receiver. The receiver can be mounted completely flat (label side up) or completely perpendicular on its side. When binding the receiver, the AVC system automatically detects the orientation of the receiver.

If the receiver is angled, AVC technology may not function properly. If the orientation of the receiver is modified after binding, you must rebind for AVC technology to function properly.

IMPORTANT: Do not use hook and loop tape to install the SRS6000 receiver. Using hook and loop tape will affect the performance of the AVC system.

SPEKTRUM SPM5110 - SRS6000 AVC RECEIVER INSTALLATION - 1

text_image Technical diagram showing a vehicle chassis with labeled components and a separate schematic view labeled 'OR'.

NOTICE: Digital servos are required with the SRS6000 AVC receiver. Using analog servos with AVC technology will reduce the performance of the system and may cause the servos to overheat.

AUX CHANNELS AND AVC TECHNOLOGY

When AVC is active, the radio system will use the AUX 1 and AUX 2 channels for gain control. The AUX 1 and AUX 2 ports can be used in AVC mode to power a personal transponder, lights, drive servos, or operate auxiliary devices. AUX 1 will follow steering gain, and AUX 2 will follow throttle gain. AUX 1 and AUX 2 are not available for use in mixes when AVC is active. For an independent channel, use AUX 3.

RATES

Rates allow the driver to reduce the travel (0-100%) of the Steering, Throttle, or Braking with a trimmer button. The Override option allows drivers to select a different rate value (0-125%) while holding down the assigned trimmer button. This is especially helpful for oval racers that program minimal steering throw to desensitize steering during racing, but requires maximum steering angle to drive out of a crash or get turned around on the track.

To adjust Rate values:

  1. Scroll to Steering and click the scroll wheel to select between Steering, Throttle or Brake.
  2. Scroll Up or Down to adjust the Rate value. Click the scroll wheel to save the selection.
  3. Set the Switch setting to On to enable Rates, select Inh to disable Rates.

  5. Select the OTF (On-The-Fly) trimmer that will be used to adjust Rates On-The-Fly.

TIP: In order for the OVERRIDE to operate, you must assign it to a switch or trimmer. The default position for this function is inhibited.

SPEKTRUM SPM5110 - To adjust Rate values: - 1

text_image Model Select < BACK > F:\VRoom < Add New Model >

EXPONENTIAL

The Exponential (Expo) function affects the response rate of the steering, throttle and/or brake. A positive Steering Expo value, for example, decreases steering sensitivity around neutral to make it easier to drive at high speeds in a straight line while still allowing for maximum turning radius. While sensitivity with positive Expo is decreased around neutral, it increases the sensitivity near the end of travel.

To adjust Expo values:

  1. Select Throttle or Steering.
  2. Scroll Up or Down to adjust the Rate value.
  3. Click the scroll wheel to save the selection.
  4. Select an OTF switch to activate Exponential.

IMPORTANT: Both positive and negative Expo values are available. A positive Expo value results in the center being less sensitive (desirable most of the time), while a negative value increases the sensitivity around center (normally not used).

TIMER

The DX5C Timer function allows you to program a countdown timer and stop watch (count up timer) to display on the main screen. An alarm sounds when the programmed time is reached. You can program the timer to start using the assigned switch position or automatically when the throttle moves above a pre-programmed position.

SPEKTRUM SPM5110 - TIMER - 1

text_image Timer Mode: Count Down Time: 05:00 Start: Throttle Over 25x One Time: Inhibit Alarm: Tone

BIND/FRAME MENU

For compatibility with all types of servos, three frame rates are available:

  • 11ms: Offers good response rates and is compatible with most digital and analog servos (this is the default position). Works with DSMR® surface receivers.
  • 16.5ms: Needed for older analog servos. Works with DSM2® surface receivers.
    • 22ms: Needed for older analog servos. Works with DSMR receivers.

TIP: You should always use the fastest response rate the servos can handle. This gives the lowest latency and fastest response. If the frame rate is incompatible with the servo, the servo will move erratically or, in some cases, not at all. If this occurs, change the frame rate to the next highest value.

NOTICE: Always rebind after changing the Frame Rate.

Failsafe

In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during use, the receiver will drive the throttle servo to its pre-programmed failsafe position (normally full brakes) and all other channels will have no servo output. The throttle failsafe position is set during binding. If the receiver is turned on prior to turning on the transmitter, the receiver will enter the failsafe mode, driving the throttle servo to its preset failsafe position. When the transmitter is turned on, normal control is resumed.

IMPORTANT: failsafe activates only in the event that signal is lost from the transmitter. Failsafe will NOT activate in the event that receiver battery power decreases below the recommended minimums or power to the receiver is lost.

NOTICE: AVC receivers must be calibrated after binding for proper operation.

Binding

Binding is the Process of teaching the receiver the specific transmitter's code called GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) and storing failsafe values. When a receiver is bound to a transmitter/model memory, the receiver will only respond to that specific transmitter/model memory.

Bind Process

  1. Use a bind plug or press the bind button to place the receiver into Bind mode. The LED on the receiver will begin to flash.
  2. Power on the transmitter.
  3. Select the Model Memory you wish to bind to.
  4. Select Bind from the List menu.
  5. Move the throttle channel to the desired failsafe position.

NOTICE: The throttle channel must stay in the failsafe position until binding is complete.

  1. Scroll to Bind and click the scroll wheel. The orange LED flashes on top of the transmitter.

  2. When the bind process is complete, the transmitter and receiver LEDs stop flashing and turn solid orange.

  3. Remove the bind plug from the receiver and keep it in a convenient place.

NOTICE: Always remove the bind plug from the receiver when the bind Process is complete. Failure to do so will cause the receiver to enter bind mode the next time you power on the receiver.

MIXING

Mixes can connect two servo outputs to one control input. The DX5C features preset steering mixes and one programmable mix (Mix 0). The AUX channels can only be assigned to one mix at a time. If AUX 1, 2, or 3 is assigned to another mix, it will not be available as a slave channel option. AUX channels 1 and 2 are not available for use in mixes when the AVC menu in the transmitter is active.

STEERING MIX

The pre-configured Steering Mix options are for vehicles using two steering servos. For vehicles with servos independently controlling front and rear wheels, four-wheel steering (4WS) offers four different mixing options on one switch. The dual steering servo (Dual ST) mix is for vehicles with two servos working together on the front wheels.

4WS (4-Wheel Steering)

4WS options in the DX5C offer four different steering configurations using one switch; Crab, 4WS, front only, and rear only steering.

  1. Select 4WS and click the scroll wheel.
  2. To activate, select Inhibit and scroll to select the second steering channel. Select STR > AUX 1 and scroll to choose from AUX 1, AUX 2 or AUX 3 as the second steering (slave) channel.
  3. Assign a switch or set the switch assignment to ON.
  4. Each of the four steering options each needs to be assigned to a switch position to be enabled. Crab and 4WS options also need to have rates assigned.
  5. Select Pos: and use the scroll wheel to select the switch position (0-3). After the switch positions are assigned to the steering modes, the current switch selection will be indicated with a box around the steering mode.
  6. For Crab and 4WS steering, a set of travel settings and a trim option for the second servo appear when the switch position setting (Pos: ) is assigned to a switch position. Front only and Rear only steering options do not have rate or trim options.

  7. Use the scroll wheel to select the travel settings, turn the wheel to adjust travel for each side individually. Setting this value positive or negative determines the second servo direction.

  8. Use the scroll wheel to select the Trim option. Select active (Act) to carry over trim settings to the mixed (slave) steering channel. Leave Inh if the trim should only adjust the primary steering channel.

BINDING THE INCLUDED RECEIVER

BINDING THE SR415 RECEIVER (NO AVC)

  1. Insert a bind plug in the receiver's BIND port.
  2. Power on the receiver and wait until the receiver LED begins flashing.
  3. Power on the transmitter.
  4. Select the Model Memory.
  5. Select Bind from the List menu.
  6. Move the throttle channel to the desired failsafe position.

NOTICE The throttle channel must stay in the failsafe position until binding is complete. Failure to properly set the failsafe position can result in the receiver continuing to apply throttle in a lost link scenario.

  1. Scroll to Bind and press the Rolling Selector. The orange LED flashes on top of the transmitter.

When the bind process is complete, the transmitter and receiver LEDs stop fl ashing and turn solid orange.

BINDING AND CALIBRATING THE SRS6000 RECEIVER WITH AVC® TECHNOLOGY

AVC technology requires at least 80% travel on steering and throttle in all directions to complete calibration. If you have reduced travel to below 80%, you must increase the travel above 80% to complete calibration.

For vehicles with a mechanical brake, very little servo travel is used to apply braking force. In this case it is common to reduce throttle travel for braking well below 80%. To calibrate a vehicle with a mechanical brake, increase the brake travel above 80% whenever the vehicle is calibrated (bound), then change the braking travel back to the travel setting for your brakes.

NOTICE: The following sequence of steps must be followed in order for AVC technology to function properly.

  1. Insert the Bind Plug in the BIND port on the receiver.
  2. Power on the receiver. The orange LED fl ashes, indicating the receiver is in bind mode.
  3. Center the ST TRIM and TH TRIM on the transmitter.
  4. Put your transmitter in bind mode.
  5. The bind process is complete when the orange LED on the receiver is solid.
  6. Pull the transmitter trigger to Full Throttle, pause, then return the trigger to center.
  7. Push the transmitter trigger to Full Brake, pause, then return the trigger to center.
  8. Turn the transmitter steering wheel to Full Right, pause, then return the wheel to center.
  9. Turn the transmitter steering wheel to Full Left, pause, then return the steering wheel to center. The orange LED flashes to confirm the settings have been accepted.
  10. Turn off the vehicle, and remove the bind plug once the calibration and binding process is complete.

  11. Power off the transmitter.

NOTICE: You must calibrate the SRS6000 receiver each time it is placed in bind mode.

NOTICE: You must rebind the transmitter and receiver if you:

• Change the servo reversing after binding
• Change the travel after binding
- Want to use the receiver with a different model memory
If you change the servo reversing or travel adjust after binding, AVC will not work properly.

DISABLING AVC TECHNOLOGY IN THE SRS6000

For sanctioned racing, bind the receiver with a second bind plug inserted into the disable port to disable AVC technology. This must be done before and during binding for AVC to be disabled. Inserting the bind plug in the disable port after binding will have no effect. The receiver will display a slow consistent flash to indicate AVC is disabled.

AVC TUNING

A value from 0 to 100 is used for three settings that affect tuning; steering gain, throttle gain, and priority. These values configure the receiver to your vehicle so you can tune it for optimal performance based on your driving style. It is normal for gain and priority tuning results to vary.

WHAT IS GAIN?

A gain value of 0 will result in zero electronic corrections, and a gain of 100 will result in large corrections in an effort to hold a straight line.

• Steering gain tells the receiver how strongly to assist steering when the vehicle begins to spin out of control.
- Throttle gain tells the receiver how much it can assist on the throttle when the vehicle begins to spin out of control.

Default gain values are 50. We recommend adjusting gain values 5 points at a time. Fine tune the settings with smaller increments as desired performance is achieved. Avoid large increases to steering gain values between tests.

WHAT IS PRIORITY?

Priority tells the receiver how much you want to be able to override the electronic stability with your steering commands. A low priority means AVC will make steering corrections when you turn wheel all the way. A high priority will reduce AVC the more you turn the wheel.

The default priority value is 100. This means when you turn the steering wheel to the limit, the gain is reduced to zero. This value will work well for a majority of drivers

WHAT IS HEADING HOLD?

Heading hold maintains the selected vehicle direction. It is normal to see the wheels steer in the same direction it was last pointed. If a vehicle with AVC technology is lifted off the ground and turned from side to side, the wheels will steer in an effort to get back to the original heading. When driving, heading hold only works when the steering wheel is left straight. The moment you begin to turn the wheel, heading hold turns off. When the wheel is re-centered, heading hold is turned back on.

AVC TUNING PROCEDURE

  1. With the transmitter and receiver already bound and properly calibrated, turn on the transmitter and vehicle.
  2. Apply throttle, do not turn the steering wheel, and observe how well the vehicle can maintain a straight line at high speed.

  3. If the vehicle does not make enough steering corrections to maintain a straight line, increase the steering gain. If the vehicle fi shtails due to wheel-spin, increase the throttle gain.

  4. If the vehicle wobbles (oscillates), reduce the steering gain.

The maximum gain values that prevent oscillations at high speed should not be exceeded.

  1. Drive the vehicle through accelerated turns and observe how it responds.

  2. If the vehicle slows down going into a turn, reduce the throttle gain.

  3. To allow the vehicle to slide more with intentional wheel-spin, reduce the throttle gain.
  4. To improve traction in slick conditions, increase throttle gain.
  5. If the vehicle won't turn-in, increase the priority.
  6. If the vehicle spins out, there are two tuning options to consider;

  7. Increasing throttle gain will help correct for undesirable wheel-spin when the vehicle over-rotates.

  8. Reducing priority will give the receiver more authority to help correct oversteer.

GENERAL TUNING TIPS

For beginner drivers, looser conditions, and vehicles with excessive power, more gain will be helpful.

For terrain with more grip and increased speeds, tuning will result in lower steering gain values.

NOTICE: If you adjust the steering and throttle trim on your transmitter, the receiver must be turned off and back on again in order to save the new trim settings. Otherwise, AVC will not function properly.

CHANGING BATTERY VOLTAGE

If the voltage is increased, the maximum steering gain setting will have to be reduced.

At the same time, when increasing voltage, increased throttle gain will help manage the extra power.

For example: If a truck set up for 2S is upgraded to 3S, the truck may oscillate at high speeds on 3S, requiring steering gain to be reduced. Throttle gain will have a bigger effect on 3S, so increasing throttle gain may be beneficial.
