Voltage Monitoring
For safety reasons, please disconnect ESCs and Power Connection Adapter or remove
all propellers during configuration and system setup!
STEP1: Protection Switch
In order to prevent your multi-rotor from crash or other
harmful consequences caused by low battery voltage, we
have designed two levels low voltage protections. You can
choose to not to use them, however we strongly
recommend to OPEN the protections here!
Note: Make sure two connections between PMU and MC
(PW to CAN interface, V-SEN to X1) are correct,
otherwise the low voltage protection will not work properly.
1
All two level protections have LED warning as
default. First level will blink yellow light
ceaselessly; second level will blink red light
ceaselessly.
2
All two level protections will only have LED
warning under Manual Mode, no any automatic
actions.
3
Low voltage protections are NOT fun! You should
land your multi-rotor ASAP in any level of
protection to prevent your multi-rotor from crash
or other harmful consequences!
STEP2: Battery
Power the MC by a battery and connect the MC with PC,
current battery voltage will be displayed in this column.
1
If the battery voltage displayed here is different from
the voltage you measure from a voltmeter, you have
to calibrate. Click the [Calibration], fill the voltage
you have just measured in the Calibration column of
the dialogue box, and then click [Confirm].
2
Meanwhile we need you to choose the battery type
you are using, so that MC can provide default
warning voltages and ranges of warning voltages for
you.
STEP3: First Level Protection
Explanation of nouns:
No Load (No Load Voltage): Self-defining
warning voltage. Needs your input.
Loss (Line Loss Voltage): The battery voltage
drop during the flight. Needs your input.
Loaded (Loaded Voltage): The real-time battery
voltage during the flight. This is the actual
warning voltage monitored by MC. No needs
your input, calculated by No Load and Loss.
Voltages Magnitude Relation
1
No Load: First level > Second level.
2
Loss: First level = Second level.
