ESC Link Function "MC LINK"
This is a special function which lets you set the contents of the Link software
which performs Futaba speed controller (ESC), MC960CR, MC940CR, MC950CR,
MC851C, MC602C, MC402CR, etc. variable frequency and other data changes at
the T4PLS transmitter. However, some data changes require a PC and Link soft-
ware. This function is used by connecting ESC directly to the transmitter. The
T4PLS power switch is used at the display side. Use the various optional servo ex-
tension cords according to the distance between the transmitter and ESC. The last
data read from ESC to T4PLS or the last data written from T4PLS to ESC is saved
to the T4PLS. Since the data for each model memory can be saved, the data of up to
40 models can be saved.
-When the T4PLS battery voltage drops, the display switches to low battery display. Therefore, use this function when there
is ample battery capacity remaining.
-Also connect the battery at the ESC side.

Note:
Do not read to the T4PLS an MC940/960CR whose speed was set to over 99990rpm by Link software side Boost An-
gle rpm setting.
