    The DigiSwitch reduces the input voltage to 5.9 V (optionally 5.3 V), and therefore supplies the correct voltage for standard 6 V servos.
  • Page 3 - Petrol engine ignition systems which are approved for a maximum input voltage of 8.4 V In the following sections we do not differentiate between the DigiSwitch and SmartSwitch, since the method of operating the two units is identical. www.powerbox-systems.com...

  • Page 7: Voltage Monitor

    2.4. VOLTAGE MONITOR The Digi- or SmartSwitch not only regulates the operating voltage of your RC sys- tem, it also monitors the battery connected to it. The tri-colour LED, which you have already used to confirm the unit’s power-on status, also informs you of the voltage of your battery by changing colour. The four stages are reflected by the colours green, orange, red and flashing red.

  • Page 8: Operating Notes

    SmartSwitch handle? Here is a comprehensive explanation: DigiSwitch: The capacity of the PowerBox DigiSwitch (1 - 3 A) is limited by the performance of the regulator when cooled efficiently, rather than by the switching capacity of the DigiSwitch. To obtain good cooling and ensure high performance, one of the he- at-sinks of the DigiSwitch is attached to the outside of the unit.
  • Page 9 You can usually improve the situation by installing the DigiSwitch in a position where the cooling airflow is better, and also by reducing any stiffness in the control surfaces or mechanical linkages.
