8.1RCINPUTMODE

In RC input mode, the speed and direction of the motor is controlled by the signal from the                 
standard hobby radio control transmitter and receiver, or a microcontroller generating the           
similarsignal.

NOTE:TheRCtransmittermustbeONbeforepoweruptheSmartDriveDuo60.

RC Input mode is selected by setting the SW1 & SW2 to 0 (Down). SW3 – SW6 can be                  


On – The center point is fixed at 1.5ms and the timeout feature is             
disabled. Motor will continue to run with previous speed if new signal           
is not detected. This is useful when a microcontroller is used to control            
the motor. The microcontroller does not need to send the pulse          
continuously to the SmartDriveDuo60. Instead, it only needs to send a          
single pulse when the speed or direction of the motor needs to be            
