ian swan interface
hey, going to have one last atempt to get this to work before i get another one
does anyone know where to get a manual for this? searches didn't bring up much info.

i noticed that there are small bits of wire joining some terminal blocks together, should i remove them?
i get a single red light on the interface when i put the 6v into it, should anything else be lighting up?
i have installed the disc that came with it on my laptop, is there something i have to do on that?
i apologise for asking the stupid questions :oops:

Re: ian swan interface
Leave the wires they are needed.
The red light shows power is getting to it, when it receives a radio signal it changes to green.
With everything on, I'd plug a servo into the rx into another channel and see it you have control of it.

Re: ian swan interface
thanks very much, ill give that a go

Re: ian swan interface
the servo works fine, i can see the led beside the red one flickering slighly though.
i had a though, with some of the antweight contolers won't work with the cheap dsm2 rxs or corona ones, would the interface have this?

Re: ian swan interface
I think you might be powering it twice...
Are you putting 9v into the board and using a receiver battery ???
You only need one of the above .

Re: ian swan interface
Well try just powering the receiver .
There will be a dim reflection on the green led, but the red needs to go out and green on,

Re: ian swan interface
got the same result from just having a 6v in the rx :?

Re: ian swan interface
I had this issue with md, it turned out that a jumper had come off, I'll have a look today at one and see which one it was, I'll post a pic tonight when I get back.
Other than that I dont know anything else to try.

Re: ian swan interface
thanks a bunch, apreciate all the help.

Re: ian swan interface
The jumper is the on next to where the receiver wires plug in.
To the right of them in your picture, seeing as its on then I can't be much help.
Just double check you rx leads etc it should work.
There is a reset jumper you pull out.
That's all I can think, or double powering it has killed it, without having a play myself difficult to say, I've never had one fail.
