The MC601C is a high-frequency drive FET speed control developed for model electric cars. It is compact and light weight competition speed control, and uses a simple digital setting system. MOUNTING PRECAUTIONS Applicable motors Use the MC601C with a motor with 9 turns or more. *If a motor with a number of turns smaller than the above is used, the heat protector and overcurrent protection circuit may operate. [. . . ] (Black) is minus. Silicone flex wire Red Silicone flex wire Blue In set-up mode MC601C stores every step when you press the Set-up button. All the settings are stored in the unit even when the speed control is subsequently disconnected from the battery. Set up the following basic functions on your transmitter (if present): ATV, EPA (throttle travel) - maximum Low ATV, EPA, ATL (brake travel) - maximum P exponential) - start with 0 TH trim - center Throttle reverse (servo reverse) - any setting; must not be changed after completion of set-up procedure. Asymmetrical stick travel is possible (2/3 throttle - 1/3 brake) If your transmitter does not feature these set-up functions, it is already in "basic set-up" mode. Remove the motor pinion, or ensure in some other way that the wheels of the model are free to rotate. Motor connector Terminal cover Silicone flex wire Red Connects to the motor. If the motor rotates in the wrong direction, interchange the connections of this connector. 1 Turn on the power in following order. Depending on the neutral position of the throttle stick, the red and green LED will blink simultaneously (orange) and a beeping sound will be repeated. (Alarm: Waiting for neutral data) Power switch 2 Hold the SET button pressed in for at least 3 seconds using the small screwdriver supplied. The SET LED flashes green, to indicate that the unit is in set-up mode. * Since the data is read at the end of setting of all points, the points cannot be set independently. * If the amp power was turned off during setting, the setting points cannot be memorized. (The previous settings are retained. ) * The confirmation beep sounds only when the motor was connected. * If you make a mistake during the set-up procedure, an setting is not completed. : switch MC601C off and start again from the first step. * Check the operation by the following "LED DISPLAY. " When throttle operation and the CHECKER LED DISPLAY are not correct, set up again from the first step. Pushbutton switch LED Transmitter throttle operation MC601C SET button operation LED 3 Receiver connector Connects to the receiver throttle channel (CH2). Neutral point setting N LED goes out and the Neutral state Press SET button once. motor beeps. flashes green two times and the motor beeps. LED goes out 4 5 High point setting Brake MAX point setting N Full high state Press SET button once. POWER CAPACITORS Power Capacitor stores battery energy and supplies this to the motor additionally when extra power is required. [Reference] The MC601C has excellent acceleration and throttle follow-up, but use this power capacitor when the course to be run requires more than maximum power. However, on a small technical course, not using the power capacitor may also be effective. Solder the suppressor capacitors and the Schottky diode to the motor. Motors with no suppressor capacitors, or inadequate suppression, may cause the MC601C to malfunction. The schottky diode improves the efficiency of the speed control / motor combination and provides extra protection to the brake FETs. The white ring must always face the positive side. N Full brake state Press SET button once. flashes green three times and the motor beeps. LED goes out Suppressor capacitors This completes the set-up procedure. LED DISPLAY The MC601C operating state can be checked with the LED as shown below. (Amp power left on alarm) Operation Brake MAX point [INSTALLATION] See the pictures for the example of installation. Schottky diode Brake Neutral point Foward High point When the transmitter power was turned off first. 1 Remove the terminal cover from the MC601C. [. . . ] Low battery protection: When the power supply voltage drops, the output current to the motor is limited and supply voltage to the receiver is ensured. When the power supply voltage drops to the set voltage (initial setting 3. 0V), a protection circuit operation alarm is activated and output to the motor is cut. The protection circuit is automatically reset by recovery of the power supply voltage.

Such a short-circuit would destroy the speed control. FUTAB A Techno Garden Bldg. , B6F 1-3 Nakase, Mihama-ku, Chiba 261-8555, Japan [. . . ]
