5. പ്രവർത്തന നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ

Once the Futaba SBS-01ML Telemetry Sensor is correctly installed and connected, you can access the telemetry data on your compatible Futaba transmitter. The exact steps to view telemetry data will depend on your specific transmitter model.

5.1 Viewing Telemetry Data

Generally, you will navigate to the telemetry menu or sensor display screen on your transmitter. Here, you should see the data points being transmitted by the SBS-01ML sensor:

• ബാറ്ററി വോളിയംtage: നിലവിലെ വോള്യം പ്രദർശിപ്പിക്കുന്നുtage of the main flight battery. Essential for monitoring power levels.
• Battery Current Value: Shows the current draw from the battery. Useful for understanding power consumption.
• ഉയരം: Indicates the drone's current height above ground or sea level, depending on calibration.
• ഗ്രൗണ്ട് സ്പീഡ്: The speed of the drone relative to the ground.
• എയർ സ്പീഡ്: The speed of the drone relative to the surrounding air.
• ജിപിഎസ് ഉപഗ്രഹങ്ങൾ: The number of GPS satellites currently being tracked, indicating GPS signal strength and accuracy.
• HDOP: Horizontal Dilution of Precision, a measure of GPS position accuracy. Lower values indicate better accuracy.

Refer to your Futaba transmitter's instruction manual for detailed guidance on configuring and displaying telemetry screens.

6. പരിപാലനം

The Futaba SBS-01ML Telemetry Sensor is a low-maintenance device. Adhering to these simple guidelines will help ensure its longevity and reliable performance:

7. പ്രശ്‌നപരിഹാരം

If you encounter issues with your Futaba SBS-01ML Telemetry Sensor, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Telemetry Data Displayed:
  • Check all cable connections between the sensor, Pixhawk, and receiver. Ensure they are secure and correctly oriented.
  • Verify that your Futaba transmitter is telemetry-enabled and properly configured to receive data from the S.BUS2 port.
  • Ensure the Pixhawk flight controller is powered on and functioning correctly.
  • Confirm that the sensor is compatible with your specific Pixhawk firmware version.
• Incorrect or Erratic Readings:
  • Check for electromagnetic interference from other electronic components. Try repositioning the sensor if possible.
  • Ensure the sensor is securely mounted and not subject to excessive vibration.
  • For GPS-related data (Satellites, HDOP), ensure the drone has a clear view of the sky and sufficient time to acquire a GPS lock.
  • Verify that the Pixhawk is correctly calibrated for its sensors (e.g., barometer for altitude).
• Sensor Not Recognized:
  • Double-check the connection to the Pixhawk's telemetry port.
  • Ensure the sensor is receiving adequate power within its specified voltagഇ ശ്രേണി.

If problems persist after following these steps, contact Futaba customer support or your local dealer for further assistance.
