Installation Guide

Installation:

CellShield installs in a few easy steps.

Step 1: Unplug the ESC from your receiver

and plug the CellShield’s RCVR pigtail into

the receiver’s throttle port.

Step 2: Plug the ESC’s throttle connector

into the ESC port on CellShield

Step 3: When you are ready to fly, connect

the battery to the ESC.

Step 4: Connect CellShield’s Battery port to

the battery’s tap connector. CellShield will

detect the battery and light the LEDs

corresponding to each cell.

Please note that CellShield requires a throttle signal to perform its battery detection. If the

green LEDs do not turn on, check that the transmitter and receiver are both powered up.

Adjusting the cutoff voltage: CellShield’s cutoff voltage is adjustable from 2.5v to 3.5v per cell. This adjustment is done via the blue potentiometer using a small Phillips screwdriver. CellShield ships set with a 3.0v/cell cutoff voltage. There is a small arrow molded into the dial which points to the voltage setting.

Optional Thermal probe: The optional thermal probes will provide a cutoff when the battery is in danger of damage due to overheating. Thermal probes install into the Probe or PC port When a thermal probe is detected, the red Temp LED will light. If the CellShield has detected a temperature above 150 degrees Fahrenheit, the Temp LED will flash until power is removed. When a temperature of more than 150 degrees is encountered, CellShield will reduce the throttle setting to reduce the battery temp.
