Indicator Function (RX-DATA)
MT-5 can check signal receiving conditions to use with RX-493i.
The conditions can be used for devices glitch and checking receiver place on the car.
There are 2 different types of data for checking signal condition.
Received Signal Strength (RSS)
Indicate signal strength which receiver received from the transmitter.
The value will be changed by placing of receiver and antenna, RC circuit, places of operation.
Please take care the value is not decreasing when driving on circuit first time or replacing receivers.
Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR)
Indicate packet delivery ratio which receiver received from the transmitter.
Values might be decreased when a lot of driver drive as the same time or using another 2.4 GHz devices
at the same time.
In case of too low RSS values, PDR values are also decreased.
How to set and check data
1) Received Signal Strength (RSS) Setting
Select TELEMETRY SETTING in Telemetry menu by multi-selector, then press enter.
Change RX-DATA at DATA-TYPE (in TLM1)
2) Received Signal Strength (RSS) Setting
Select TELEMETRY SETTING in Telemetry menu by multi-selector, then press enter.
Change RX-DATA at DATA-TYPE (in TLM2)
After complete setting, go to the Telemetry display and can see RSS and PDR in the display.
About reference values
In case RSS is below 20, please check receiver where and how placed on the car.
Please change the receiver place to increase RSS values.
*Please refer on p.1 and p.9 for receiver replacing.
In case PDR is below 40, please turn off and restart the transmitter. Then, please check PDR values again.
*About telemetry data
In case telemetry data displays "---", transmitter does not receive telemetry data from receiver.
This does not indicate about receiver does not works and receiver does not receive transmitter signal.
Due to telemetry data signal from receiver is not stronger than transmitter signal, transmitter may not get
telemetry data from receiver due to distance which signal from receiver cannot reach.
Telemetry data on transmitter may display as "---" in this case.
In case of showing "---" on the transmitter, please check to see car movement by transmitter operation.
