  • Page 4: Functionality

    (i.e. flashes) until power is turned off. Powerful Servos: The electronically design of the DPSI V-Match allows for usage of powerful digital servos; supply voltage ranging up to 8.4 volts. Due to the PCB (4-layer) and the thick (0.34 mm ) connection cable, current load is especially high.
  • Page 5 Because of the intelligent software design and a highly accurate crystal oscillator, a resolution of more than 3000 steps is obtained. Therefore, the DPSI V-Match is also suitable for modern remote control systems with high servo positioning precision (number of steps).
  • Page 6: Programming

    2. Programming There is no external programming device necessary, e.g. a PC or a programming box for programming of the DPSI V-Match. Only a delivered magnet serves for activation of the corresponding programming functions. Everything else is conducted with the transmitter and remote control equipment.
  • Page 7: Changing Servo Direction

    Version 1.0 Hint: Whenever programming takes place, the integrated red LED blinks for controlling purposes at a rate of 0.5Hz (1s on, 1s off) at the DPSI V-Match's side. 2.1. Changing Servo Direction When changing the direction of the servo, all...
  • Page 8: Calibrating Servo Center

    If the stick remains in one end-position, steps automatically increment or decrement after 2.5 seconds. This serves for quicker settings of the values. Hint: Due to the high resolution of the DPSI V-Match, changes of the servo position are possibly recognizable only after several steps. Page 8 of 16...
  • Page 9: Calibrating End-Limits

    Operating Instructions Version 1.0 Remove the magnet from its red dot position ("PRG") as soon as the slave servo reaches the desired center position. The DPSI V-Match now starts with the newly programmed center position of the slave servo. Hint: Reprogram the end-limits in order to obtain linear curves after programming the servo center.
  • Page 10: Deleting All Programming

    DPSI V-Match takes place. Now, the magnet can be removed. Hint: Whenever programming takes place, the integrated red LED blinks for controlling purposes at a rate of 0.5Hz (1s on, 1s off) at the DPSI V-Match's side. Page 10 of 16...
  • Page 11: Additional Hints

    DPSI V-Match connects to the MSTR output of the first DPSI V-Match. Now, a SLAVE output is available at the first DPSI V-Match, a MSTR and a SLAVE output at the second one. Both SLAVE servos can now be independently set up.
  • Page 12: Changing The Model

    Version 1.0 3.2. Changing the Model If a programmed DPSI V-Match is to be used in an other application (e.g. changing a model), generally all settings should be deleted (see also "Deleting all Programming"). This is also true if a servo with a different rotating direction is to be built in.
  • Page 13 DPSI V-Match Operating Instructions Version 1.0 The "distance" of the maximum position of a servo in respect to its center must be at least 20%, otherwise the value is not programmable. Range checking accompanies each programming. It is therefore not possible to position the servo center position off limits.
  • Page 14: Technical Data

    (e.g. wheel spinning) when utilizing the full range. Therefore, approximate the limiting values carefully. An additionally connected servo tester (e.g. using the EMCOTEC Mini Servo Tester – part number A71050) can help if in doubt, indicating the corresponding servo position digitally.
  • Page 15: Warranty

    There shall be no assumption of liability for consequential damages that are brought about by a proven defect during operation of the DPSI V-Match. There shall be no extended claims for damages.
