  • Page 2: Product Description

    Dear PowerBox customer, We are delighted that you have decided to purchase a PBR-14D transceiver, which almost certainly represents the most highly developed and most advanced transmitting and receiving system for your valuable models available anywhere in the modelling world. Unprecedented range in the 2.4 GHz band, and ultra-fast, ultra-precise data transfer in both directions - these are the outstanding features of this radio system.
  • Page 3 suffer that drawback. There are also no switching diodes which have a damping effect on the signal as it arrives; this has a particularly adverse effect on the radio chip. In contrast, both the receive units in PowerBox transceivers pick up the data packet in undamped form, and subject it to a full analysis.
  • Page 4: Features And Connections

    One feature which is unique in the market is the facility to update receivers from the transmitter. You do not even need to remove the receiver or receivers from the model, or connect to the model using a laptop and USB interface, in order to update the receiver software.
  • Page 5: Power Supply

    3. POWER SUPPLY Power is supplied to the PBR-14D via the MPX high-current socket. Since there is an integral electronic switch, no additional external components are required. The PBR-14D can be switched on and off using either the integral blue push-button, or a separately available MicroSwitch (#3584) or MicroMag (#3585).
  • Page 6 This is the switching process: hold the push-button pressed in for about two seconds, release the button briefly, then press it a second time briefly to confirm the switching process. If you use the internal push-button, there is no visible indication of the switching process, but you will see the switched status from the LED which shows the receiver’s status.

For example, the PBR-9D can be set to generate outputs 10 - 19 as well as channels 1 - 9 *. b) P²-BUS This interface is used for the external ultra-fast P²-BUS telemetry system and digital servo output.

    If you select this option, you can connect an additional servo to the FastTrack/ Data socket. The channel generated varies according to the type of receiver you are using. For example, if your receiver is a PBR-14D, then channel 15 is available at this socket.

    All PowerBox receivers pcb´s are manufactured using the SMT method, and are therefore extremely resistant to vibration and shock. The ideal method of moun- ting the PBR-14D is to use the retaining plate supplied in the set. However, it can also be secured to any firm surface using double-sided adhesive tape.

    You can find a detailed description of the iGyro’s features in the instructions sup- plied with the iGyro SAT. The iGyro function integrated into PowerBox receivers is completely identical to the iGyro function in our larger PowerBox systems or the iGyro3xtra.
