10. TELEMETRY
The Champion SRS makes battery, receiver and GPS data (if GPS ll is connected) available as telemetry informa-
tion which can be exploited by various makes of radio control system. The unit supports the following makes of
equipment, and other systems will gradually be introduced as updates become available:
- Jeti EX
If you wish the transmitter to receive telemetry data, connect the PowerBox output TELE to the EXT input of your
receiver. Battery, receiver and GPS data are transmitted.
- Futaba
If you wish to use telemetry, you will need the PowerBox Teleconverter, which is available as an optional acces-
sory. This is used to connect the TELE output on the PowerBox to the S-BUS 2 input of your receiver.
- Spektrum
Connect the four-pin Spektrum TELE output to the TM1000, and also the three-pin TELE output to the Data Port
of the TM1000. Bind the TM1000 and the connected satellites to the transmitter. Activate the PowerBox Teleme-
try display at your transmitter. The battery voltage and residual capacity for both batteries, plus the receiver data,
are now available at the transmitter.
For additional information on the binding procedure and the cables required please refer to the FAQ section of
our Forum.

In the interests of safety, the software generates a
confirmation query when you select one of the Reset
options; the intention is to avoid accidental erasure of
data. If you confirm this query, the settings are perma-
nently erased, and cannot be restored.
The PC-CONTROL option permits the Champion SRS to be connected to a PC, a tablet or a mobile telephone.
In this way you can load updates into the Champion SRS to ensure that it constantly reflects the latest state of
development. The following methods are available:
a) Using the BlueCom Adapter (iOS: 9021, Android: 9022), a mobile telephone and the free PowerBox Mobile
Terminal App. You will find the Mobile Terminal App in your App Store.
b) Using the USB Interface Adapter (9020), a PC and the PowerBox Terminal program. The PowerBox Terminal
software is available as a free download from our website.
Both adapters are connected to the TELE socket of the PowerBox.
Since V14 it is also possible to alter settings such as General Settings or Servomatching using a smartphone,
the BlueCom adapter and PC-CONTROL. The latter function enormously simplifies set-up work on large models.
