NOT ALL TRANSMITTERS HAVE THESE ADJUSTMENTS

pulse track guide

proper gear selection

6-2013#55-1755P-1 Rev.2

Motor operating temperature is the ONLY

way to properly set vehicle gearing

Motor & ESC should NEVER exceed 160°F MAX during a run!

Change the gearing to avoid overheating!

DO NOT FREE-REV MOTOR

Free-running your brushless motor in a no-load condition can cause rotor failure

& ESC transistor damage that will not be covered by the product’s warranty.

Because of the potential danger of overheating, ESC/motor damage & failure,

you must start with VERY small pinion sizes and check ESC & motor

temperatures at multiple times throughout the initial runs. This is the only

way to ensure that you are not causing excessive heating.

If ESC & motor temperatures remain low & stable, you can slowly increase

the pinion size while again monitoring the temperatures to determine the

safe gearing for your vehicle, motor, and climate/track conditions. Because

these variables can change or be modiﬁed, you MUST continually monitor

ESC & motor temperatures to protect your electronics from damage.

Transmitter adjustments may not be needed to complete ONE-TOUCH

PROGRAMMING, however, if you have any problems with it, adjust your

transmitter as follows and repeat the ONE-TOUCH PROGRAMMING step.

THROTTLE CHANNEL ADJUSTMENTS

A. Set HIGH ATV or EPA to 100% setting. [amount of throw at full throttle]

B. Set LOW ATV, EPA, or ATL to 100% setting. [amount of throw at full brakes]

C. Set EXPONENTIAL to zero setting. [throttle channel linearity]

D. Set THROTTLE CHANNEL REV. SWITCH to either position.

E. Set THROTTLE CHANNEL TRIM to middle setting.

[adjusts neutral position/increases or decreases coast brakes]

F. Set ELECTRONIC TRIGGER THROW ADJUSTMENT to 50% throttle and 50%

brake throw–best for reversible ESCs.

[adjusts trigger throw electronic/digital pistol-grip transmitters]

G. Set MECHANICAL TRIGGER THROW to 1/2 throttle and 1/2 brake position.

Steering Channel Works But Motor Will Not Run

• Possible receiver damage––Check operation with a different receiver.

• Possible internal damage––Refer to ‘SERVICE PROCEDURES’ section.

• Check motor or motor connections.

• Make sure ESC is plugged into the throttle channel of receiver. Check wiring color

sequence of receiver signal harness (Refer to STEP 1).

Receiver Glitches/Throttle Stutters During Acceleration

• Receiver or antenna too close to ESC, power wires, battery, or motor.

• Bad motor sensors, sensor harness, or connections––Check wiring, sensor harness, &

connections, perform hall sensor test (Refer to ‘MOTOR HALL SENSOR TEST’ section).

• Low voltage to receiver––Try Novak Glitch Buster capacitor on receiver to help retain

power during high current draw situations (Novak accessory #5626).

• Power Trans-Cap Module damaged/missing––Replace Power Trans-Cap Module.

• Battery pack damaged or weak––Try a different battery pack.

• Motor magnet weak or overheated––Replace rotor

(Refer to motor manufacturer’s website

• Excessive current to motor—Use a milder motor or a smaller pinion gear.

• Untidy wires or signal and power wired bundled together. Input harness and servo

wires should be bundled separately. Power wires should be as short as possible.

Motor and Steering Servo Do Not Work

•

ESC set to incorrect Transmitter/Receiver Rate––Refer to ‘CUSTOM PROGRAMMING’ section.

• Check wires, receiver signal harness wiring & color sequence, radio system, crystals,

battery/motor connectors, & battery pack.

• Blue & Red status LEDs blinking. Possible ESC thermal shut-down––Check gear ratio

& free operation of drive train for possible overloading/ESC is being severely over-

loaded––allow system to cool & return throttle to neutral position to regain motor

control. LEDs will continue to blink until system is cooled down.

• Blue & Green (Locked Rotor Detection), or Blue & Red (ESC Thermal Shut-Down)

status LEDs blinking. ESC may have shut-down & ESC’s neutral point is too far off

to sense that transmitter throttle has been returned to neutral (Refer to ‘ONE-TOUCH’

& ‘TRANSMITTER ADJUSTMENTS’).

• White status LED blinking. ESC timing is turned OFF. ESC is operating normal.

• Red & Yellow status LEDs toggling. LiPo Safety Cut-Off voltage reached. Remove

and charge/replace battery pack.

thermal protection circuitry

To conform to ROAR’s Sportsman Class rules and help organizers monitor driver

compliance in non-timing race classes, we have included a feature in this ESC to

indicate when the ESCs electronic motor timing advancement feature de-activated.

At all times when the speed control is powered on and the Dynamic Motor Timing

is turned OFF (electronic motor timing advancement is set to zero), the ESC’s white

status LED will ﬂash during normal operation.

Due to the nature of timing advance ESCs, vehicle/motor tolerances, settings, and

performance, it is impossible to recommend settings that allow ESCs & motors

to be used at their highest performance levels without potential for unwanted

damage. You MUST use extreme caution setting up electronics and carefully

test the application to avoid overloading/overheating either the ESC or motor.

These are racing electronics used in racing conditions, and therefore damage

resulting from excessive overheating will not be covered by product’s warranty.

Electronic motor timing advancement can generate extrememly high speeds and

result in an uncontrollable vehicle. Use caution when operating vehicle and do not

operate around other people or in an unsafe manner to avoid injuries or damage.

If used properly, this ESC’s built-in Smart-Stop Voltage Cut-Off Circuitry will allow

you to safely use 2S LiPo (Lithium Polymer) batteries, without letting the battery’s

cells drop below their critical safety voltage which causes internal damage. The

ESC’s default is LiPo voltage cut-off circuitry is turned ON. If using NiMH or NiCd

cells, you will need to switch this feature off. ESC does NOT cut off 1S LiPo packs.

Note: ESC will NOT revert to LiPo ON setting when the One-Touch Programming is performed.

DO NOT USE 2S LiPo BATTERIES WITH VOLTAGE CUT-OFF TURNED OFF

voltage cut-off circuitry

With the higher performance of brushless systems, undesirable radio system noise may

occur when used with lower quality radio systems. 2.4GHz radio systems are the best to use.

High quality FM radio systems are acceptable. AM radio systems are NOT recommended.

2.4 GHz

OK to use

GOOD QUALITY RADIO SYSTEM SUGGESTED

This ESC’s temperature overload protection will turn off the Dynamic Timing

Advance feature and limit the power to the motor in an attempt to prevent thermal

overloading of the ESC. This feature can not guarantee the survival of the ESC

when subjected to conditions that produce excessive heating of the electronics,

it does provide you a tool to help avoid extensive damage.

If you notice a signiﬁcant decrease in performance of your brushless

system during a run, immediately check the ESC & motor temperatures.

Reduce gearing or ESC timing settings to lower temperatures!

The ESC’s Thermal Protection Circuitry can be disabled, if needed.

Follow the steps in the ‘CUSTOM PROGRAMMING’ section to access

the ‘Thermal Protection’ option via the ESC’s Set button.

Using ESC with Thermal Protection disabled lets you to push the equipment to

the absolute limit, and well beyond it very quickly.

Use EXTREME CAUTION

to avoid severe ESC damage! Any damage that occurs after the Thermal

Protection Circuitry is turned OFF will NOT be covered by warranty!

Yellow & White LEDs ﬂashing 1 time

= Thermal Protection

OFF

Yellow & White LEDs ﬂashing 2 times = Thermal Protection

Note: The thermal protection circuitry can be triggered by heavy BEC loading

from

high-power servos

. An external BEC or receiver pack can solve this problem

& allow you to keep the thermal protection turned ON for maximum security!

The Hall Sensor Test diagnostic feature in this ESC allows you to easily check the

sensors in the brushless motor connected to the ESC to determine if they are

operating normally. This will help you pinpoint the cause of problems in your system,

and hopefully reduce the down time and expenses associated with sending your

product in for service when you can resolve the issue yourself.

Follow these steps to access the ‘Hall Sensor Test’ option in the ESC’s ‘CUSTOM

PROGRAMMING’ selection process to access via the ESC’s SET button:

The Hall Sensor Test is at the very end of the programmable ESC parameters after the

‘M12 Super-High Speed Mode’ -- it is #20 and is indicated by the BLUE LED BLINKING.

1. Connect the speed control to a fully charged battery pack, the receiver,

and the brushless motor’s sensor harness.

2. Slide the ESC’s power switch to ‘ON’ posistion.

3. With ESC at neutral, Press & Hold ESC’s Set button. Release Set button once

the BLUE LED is Blinking (not ON solid--that is Drag Brake).

4. Slowly rotate the motor’s output/pinion shaft. If motor is installed in a

vehicle, slowly rotate the drive train so that the motor also rotates.

5. The status LEDs on the speed control should cycle through illuminating

the BLUE, YELLOW, and RED status LEDs.

If the BLUE, YELLOW, and RED LEDs light up one after another as the motor’s shaft

is rotated, the Hall Sensors in the motor are operating normally.

If any one of the BLUE, YELLOW, or RED status LEDs do not light up when rotating

the motor, there is a either a problem with the Sensor Harness Cable (or its

connections at the motor or ESC end) or with the motor’s Hall Effect Sensors.

If your motor has a user-replaceable sensor harness, try another one to determine if

this is this source of the problem. If all three of the LEDs still do not light up, it would

appear that one of the sensors inside the motor has been damaged--replace the

timing section of your motor, or contact manufacturer for the appropriate service.

This ESC has a built-in diagnostic temperature monitoring feature that lets you

quickly check the ESC’s operating temperature at any time. While connected to a

battery and ESC powered ON, simply tap the ESC’s SET button and one (or all)

of the status LEDs will ﬂash 4 times to indicate operating temperature of ESC.

If all 5 LEDs light up momentarily after the temperature LED ﬂashes, this indicates

that the ESC’s Thermal Protection Circuitry has previously been turned OFF.

WHITE ﬂashing LED = normal operating temp--under 135°F (57°C).

BLUE ﬂashing LED = medium operating temp--136-147°F (58-64°C).

YELLOW ﬂashing LED = hot operating temp--148-167°F (65-75°C).

GREEN ﬂashing LED = hotter operating temp--168-194°F (76-90°C).

RED ﬂashing LED = hottest operating temp--195-215°F (91-102°C).

You are pushing ESC extremely hard--Be very careful to avoid overheating & shut-down.

All LEDs ﬂashing = DANGEROUS operating temp--216-239°F (103-115°C).

Your ESC is now about to thermally shut-down.

--Reduce pinion size or timing to avoid overheating & potential ESC damage--

This ESC is equipped with ﬁrmware updates making it fully-compatible with the

Airtronics M12 radio system operating in its super-high speed SSR mode when

used with one of their SSR receivers. The ESC still works with all standard rate

radio systems as well as the M12 operating in its normal rate and SHR modes.

Because the receiver rate of the SSR mode is so high, the ESC must ﬁrst be

switched to the correct radio system mode before it will recognize the receiver

signal and allow the One-Touch Set-Up to be programmed. The ESC leaves Novak

programmed for operation with standard rate transmitters/receivers and is ready

to program if this is what type of radio system you are using.

Follow these steps to access the ‘Trans/Receiver Rate’ option in the ESC’s

‘CUSTOM PROGRAMMING’ selection process to access via the ESC’s SET button:

The Transmitter/Receiver Rate is at the end of the programmable ESC parameters

after ‘Thermal Protection’ and before the ‘Hall Sensor Test’ -- it is the 19th item in the

adjustable parameter line-up and is indicated by the GREEN & RED LEDs ON SOLID.

1. Connect ESC to a fully charged battery pack, the receiver, and the brushless

motor’s sensor harness. Disconnect at least 2 of the motor power wires.

2. Slide the ESC’s power switch to ‘ON’ posistion.

3. With ESC at neutral, Press & Hold ESC’s Set button. Release Set button once

the RED & GREEN LEDs come ON solid. (

LEDs ﬂash together to indicate setting #)

4. Quick Press & Release ESC’s Set button to change the radio system mode.

1 Flash = M12 SSR Mode 2 Flashes = Standard Rate Rx Mode

5. Press & Hold ESC’s Set button to store the desired radio system mode.

Now that the ESC is set for the correct Transmitter/Receiver rate, it will now

recognize the connected receiver and is ready for the basic One-Touch Set-Up

programming procedure (Steps 1-8 in ‘One-Touch Programming’ section).

This ESC is compatible with standard rate radio systems and also the super-high

speed Airtronics M12 radio system operating in its SSR mode. ESC must ﬁrst be

switched to the correct radio system mode before it will recognize the receiver and

allow the One-Touch Set-Up programming. ESC ships from Novak in the Standard

Rate Mode and is ready to program if this is what type of system you are using.

For standard rate systems, skip steps A-D below and simply follow Steps 1-8.

If installing ESC with an M12 radio system operating in SSR mode, follow Steps A-D

below to switch modes

(detailed steps in ‘Custom Programming’ on back)

, then complete

Steps 1-8 afterwards.
