Before Using
Power & Display Switch
The power switch and display switch of the T4PLS are integrated. In the PWR ON
mode, radio waves are transmitted and in the DISP mode, model data, settings can be
checked without transmitting radio waves.
In addition, some setting menus may only be displayed in the DISP mode.
Low Battery Alarm
If the transmitter battery voltage drops below the usable range, an audible
alarm will sound and "BATTERY LOW VOLTAGE" will be displayed on
the LCD screen. If the battery goes dead while running (cruising), you will
lose control of the vehicle (boat). Therefore, retrieve the vehicle (boat) im-
mediately and cease operation.
Because the low battery alarm voltage of a dry cell battery is different from
that of a rechargeable battery pack (genuine Futaba option), the type of
power source used must be set by system setting (P101).
󾾝
Warning
󾾙
When a low battery alarm is generated, cease operation immediately and re-
trieve the model.
If the battery goes dead while in operation, you will lose control of the model.
Precautions when turning the power switch on and off.
- When the data is changed using the edit keys or trim levers, wait at least two seconds
before turning off the power. If the power is turned off within two seconds after the data
is changed, the new data will not be written to memory.
- If the power switch is quickly switched from the DISP mode to the PW
ON mode or vice versa, the switch error shown at the right may be gener-
ated. If this occurs, cycle the power.
