Detailed instructions for use are in the User's Guide.
[. . . ] · Insert the input plug into the receiver with the BLACK wire toward the outside/bottom edge of the case.
· Old-Style Sanwa/Airtronics ·
· Interchange the middle black and red wires in the plug plastic of the input harness as in the figure below. · Trim the plug plastic* as needed to fit into the XXtra.
*Contact Novak to get JR style plug plastics if you do not want to trim.
· Insert the input plug into the receiver with the middle BLACK wire toward the outside edge of the receiver.
With a small flat blade screwdriver, gently lift the plastic prong until the wire and metal socket easily slides out of the plastic housing. Repeat for each wire.
THE NOVAK XXTRA RECEIVER Novak introduces the world's first small size, light weight, low power synthesized receiver for R/C cars and boats. Forget those extra receiver crystals, now selecting the frequency channel is as easy as rotating two switches. [. . . ] Based on the rock-solid XXL circuitry, the XXtra adds a crystal-controlled phase locked loop oscillator, and five output channels for the ability to control extra servos. With outstanding range, superior noise rejection, low voltage operation (down to 3. 0 volts DC), and solid state reverse voltage protection, the XXtra outperforms the competition. The XXtra works with all popular radio systems and DSC (Direct Servo Control) connections, and accepts Futaba, JR, Sanwa, Hitec, & new KO connectors. 1. 65"x1. 12"x0. 52" (41. 9x28. 4x13. 3mm) Weight . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0. 58 ounce (16. 33 grams) Number of Channels . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . >60 dB @ ±10. 0 kHz 3OIP (Third Order Intercept Point) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18. 0 mA (over full voltage range)
STEP 3 STEP 2 INPUT PLUGS(Futaba, JR, Hitec, new KO/Sanwa/Air)
The XXtra receiver will accept Futaba, JR, Hitec, new-style Sanwa/Airtronics (the blue color Z connector), and newstyle KO input plugs. These two sections (Step 2 is broken up into two different sections depending on which brand of servo or speed control you have) describe how to connect and/or change the plug plastics and wiring based on the brand of radio system components you have.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The XXtra should be mounted so the receiver `floats' to avoid damage from vibration or shock, and position it where the case will not contact other rigid surfaces. Electric Cars & BoatsMount XXtra with the included double-sided tape as close to antenna mast as possible. Gas Cars & BoatsCut the included double-sided tape in half and double-layer it for extra dampening.
Do Not use glue to mount the receiver!
· JR ·
· Insert the plug plastic of the servo or ESC's input harness into the receiver with the BROWN wire toward the outside/bottom edge of the case (marked NEG on label).
· Hitec · Futaba · New KO · Air Z ·
· Insert the plug plastic of the servo or ESC's input harness into the receiver with the BLACK wire toward the outside/bottom edge of the case (marked NEG on label).
3. Tubular Plastic AntennasRun the antenna wire up through the plastic antenna tube and let the excess wire trail out the top of the tube. · Check color sequence of input plugsRefer to Step 2. · Channel selector switches not on same frequency channel as transmitter, or bad transmitter crystalRefer to Step 1. Receiver Glitches/Throttle Stutters On Acceleration · Motor capacitors broken or missingRefer to Step 4. · Receiver or antenna too close to speed control, power wires, battery, or motorRelocate receiver/antenna. · Excessive current going to motorUse milder motor or a smaller pinion gear. · Voltage to receiver is too lowTry using an external receiver battery pack. · Possible internal damageRefer to service procedures.
Extra 0. 1 µF capacitors are available in novak kit #5640.
2. INSTALL SCHOTTKY DIODE (if required)
Consult your speed control's operation manual to determine if an external Schottky diode is required. Use of an external Schottky diode (even if your ESC already has one in it) will increase the efficiency and reduce the operating temperature of the ESC.
NEVER USE A SCHOTTKY WITH A REVERSIBLE ESC
· Solder the lead CLOSEST to the silver stripe on the Schottky diode to the POSITIVE (+) motor tab. · Solder the lead OPPOSITE the silver stripe on the Schottky diode to the NEGATIVE (-) motor tab.
Schottky diodes are available in Novak kit #5640.
3. CONNECT STEERING SERVO
After the input harness wires on the steering servo have been configured to match receiver (Refer to Step 2), plug the steering servo into channel 1 on the XXtra.
