TGU-o'! lnstallation
A
GAUTIoNS
aMake
sure that th€
transmitte/receiver
batte
es have
sufficient voltage
for
operation. Check battery
voltage
during TGU-01
setup in order
to
det€rmine
appropriate
driving time.
aAfter
switching on
the
TGU-o1/receiver power source,
do not
hendle
the chassis
or operate
the
st€oring
for
3
seconds. TGU-0'I
will
undergo
Start-Up, and if
in
AVCS
Mode, undergo neutral position calibration. Servo will
move l€ft and dght to signal completion
of
Start-up.
aAlways
check
the
movement
direction of
lhe
TGU-01
unit's gyro.
lf
the direction
is
reversed,
the
car
may
experience rollovers and
lead
to dangerous situations.
aDo
not
hit or
drop
the
TGU-01
unit
against
hard
objects/surfaces.
Since
the
TGU-01
is
extremely
sensitive
to
vibrations,
§uchshocks maydamagethe
unit,
aoo
not
use
trim or
mixing while in
AVCS Mode. The
TGU-01 handles all adjustments when
in
AVCS
Mode, so
using
the trim
or
mixing will upset the neutral
position
calib.ation.
