Frame Rate; Battery Type; Output Voltage; Setup Assistant - PowerBox Systems Mercury SRS Instruction Manual

3.2. Frame rate

At this point you can set the servo frame rate (signal repeat rate). If you
are using modern digital servos, you can set a frame rate of 12 - 15 ms,
whereas older analogue servos may only work properly with a setting of
21 ms. If the frame rate is too low, you will notice that the servos jitter, or
have no holding power at the centre position.

3.3. Battery type

The battery type you wish to use is also determined in the GENERAL
SETTINGS menu. This setting is important, otherwise the battery display
will not be correct.

3.4. Output voltage

This is where you set your preferred output voltage: the available options
are a regulated output voltage of either 5.9 V or 7.4 V. If you intend to use
the 7.4 V option, please ensure that all servos, switches and valves
connected to the system are HV types, as the voltage is the same at all
outputs.

4. Setup Assistant

Once the basic settings are complete, you can move on immediately to the
Setup Assistant, which can be found on the second page of the main
menu.
Start the Setup Assistant and follow the instructions on the screen. When
you have concluded the settings on each screen display, press the SET
button twice to move on to the next step. A single press of the SET button
allows you to select BACK and return to the previous screen.
4.1. Installed position
The Mercury SRS features an integral six-axis sensor which enables it to
detect its installed orientation automatically. All you have to do is press the
model's tail down (tricycle under-carriage) or lift it up (tail-dragger
undercarriage). You will see a bar display on the screen which reflects the
angle. You must lift the model to the point where the bar display is comple-
tely full to the right, then hold the model as motionless as possible. The
Mercury SRS now detects its installed position automatically.
