SPMA9585/SPMA9586 AIRCRAFT

TELEMETRY G-FORCE SENSORS

USER GUIDE

The Spektrum™ SPMA9585/SPMA9586 Aircraft Telemetry

G-Force sensors are compatible with the Spektrum TM1000

Telemetry Module X-BUS expansion port.

Specifications

Type: SPMA9585/SPMA9586 Aircraft Telemetry G-Force Sensors

Measures: SPMA9585: 3 axis +/- 8G; SPMA9586: 2 axis +/-

40G (X and Z axis), 1 axis +/- 8G (Y axis)

Dimensions: 28mm x 16mm x 7mm

Weight: Circuit board—4 gram

Calibration: No user calibration required

Important: The G-Force sensors are +/- 8G and +/-

40G after zero G calibration. The sensor range can vary

slightly. For example, the 8G sensor full range could

be from +7.5G to -8.5G worst case.

Items Included

• 6” X-BUS extension • Sensor

Connection Information

Insert the X-BUS extension into the G-Force Sensor and X-BUS

port of the TM1000 Telemetry Module. The sensor has two ports

for the X-BUS extension to attach. Either plug can be used on the

sensor; when using multiple sensing units, daisy chaining will be

required. The G-Force sensor can be installed anywhere inside

the aircraft for G-Force to display on the telemetry screen.

ATTENTION: Make sure your AirWare

™

software

is updated to the most recent version.

Mount the TM1000 module near the receiver in a position that

allows the 2.5-inch data lead to extend from the receiver’s Data port

to the Data port on the telemetry module. You can use servo tape

to secure the TM1000 module or wrap it in foam with the receiver.

Plug the Data lead into the TM1000 port marked DATA and plug

the other end of the lead into the receiver’s DATA port.

NOTICE: Route and secure the antenna away from any

metallic or conductive materials to give the best range.

Binding the Telemetry

Module and Receiver

1. Using the Bind Stylus, press and hold the bind button

on the side of the TM1000 telemetry module.

2. While depressing the bind button, power the receiver.

The main receiver, all attached remote receivers and the

TM1000 telemetry module should blink, indicating the

system is in bind mode.

3. With the stick and switches in the desired failsafe

positions (normally low throttle and neutral sticks),

put the transmitter into bind mode.

4. The main screen displays the receiver type. After

several seconds, the system connects and reverts

to the main screen.

5. From the main screen, rotate the roller to access the

telemetry screens and verify the flight log data and

G-Force readings.

NOTICE: G-Force must be enabled in the System Setup

Telemetry screen.

Installation

The optional G-Force sensors are designed to easily install in any

aircraft application. The accuracy of the G-Force sensor depends

on position and orientation of the sensor in relation to the aircrafts

center of gravity. For proper orientation ensure the sensor is

mounted to the right side of the fuselage with the leads facing the

rear of the aircraft (refer to diagram). To reset the G-Force telemetry

values to zero, power will need cycled off and then on to the sensor.

IT Informazioni sui collegamenti Il sensore opzionale G-Force è fatto per essere facilmente installato il qualsiasi aereo. La precisione del G-Force dipende dalla posizione e dall’orientamento del sensore rispetto al centro di gravità dell’aereo. Per una installazione corretta montare il sensore sul fianco destro della fusoliera con i fili rivolti verso la parte posteriore dell’aereo (vedi il disegno). Per mandare a zero i valori di telemetria del G-Force, basta spegnerlo e poi riaccenderlo.
