Introduction
The VSpeak ECU Converter provides the data of the PBS turbine on the telemetry system of
your remote control system.
In the systems Jeti Duplex and Graupner HoTT the VSpeak ECU converter replaces the PBS
EDT (Terminal) completely, that means not only the indicators of the EDT are displayed on the
transmitter - also all entries can be made conveniently via the transmitter.
To avoid unwanted electrical effects between the
galvanically isolated

The VSpeak ECU Converter can be software-updated by the user.
