The Traxxas Pro Scale® Advanced Lighting Control
System for your Mercedes-Benz® G 500® 4x4
AMG consists of two major electronic components:
the Pro Scale Lighting Power Module and the Pro
Scale Lighting Distribution Block.
The Lighting Power Module installs on the chassis
and performs as the voltage regulator and power
supply for the lighting system. It also controls
various lighting functions through the two buttons
on the face of the module and communicates with
the receiver in the model via the communication
cable or the optional included MAXX® Link cable.
The Lighting Distribution Block mounts in the body
of the vehicle and is the distribution hub for all the
various wired lights in your Mercedes-Benz® body.
Its main function is to direct power and instructions
to the brake lights, reverse lights, turn signals, and
high/low beam lighting.
There is only one rugged breakaway wiring connector
between the Lighting Distribution Block and
the Lighting Power Module for reliable lighting
performance, plus it makes it easy to remove the body
for vehicle service. The connector is designed to break
away from the vehicle, without damage, if the body
comes off the vehicle in a crash. There are lighting
channels on the Lighting Power Module which allow
the lighting installed on the chassis to be permanently
connected and integrated into the system. This is
helpful to install features such as rock lights, bumper
lights, and other chassis-mounted accessory lighting.

COMMUNICATION CABLES
Your Pro Scale Advanced Lighting Control System includes two
communication cables: the Receiver Communication Cable and
the MAXX® Link Cable. Since your model is equipped with the TQi
receiver, you can use either the Receiver Communication Cable or
the MAXX Link Cable. MAXX® Link Cable only: The 6511 Traxxas
Link Wireless Module (sold separately) is required for Traxxas Link App
functionality (only with the MAXX Link Cable). Some models may require
a software update for the TQi receiver via the Traxxas Link App for custom
lighting controls and configurations (see Appendix on page 8 for
additional information).
Only use one of the communication cables to connect the Lighting
Power Module to the receiver. Do not use both cables together.

CAUTION: RISK OF INJURY!
Use care with hobby knives, tapered reamers, and other cutting tools as they
are extremely sharp and can cause severe injury, deep cuts, and/or punctures.
CAUTION: RISK OF DAMAGE TO BATTERIES!
Always disconnect the battery from the ESC when not in use to prevent the
possibility of over-discharge and battery damage.
