FrSky ESC Neuron 40 User manual

Programming parameters
The configuration method based on the operation manual for BLHeli_32 ARM is only for reference. For more
detailed information, please refer to the original BLHeli manual carefully. Due to firmware update or other
reasons, the descriptions for functions may differ, so please take the official BLHeli manual as standard.
Rampup Power can be set to relative values from 3% to 150%. 3% is the
minimum power to start the engine and 150% is the maximum power to
operate the motor normally.
Temperature protection can be disabled or enabled and temperature
threshold can be programmed. The measured maximum temperature is
different because the hardware are not the same.

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing FrSky ESC Neuron 40/60/80. The ESC has high performance processor. The SBEC
voltage can be adjusted through LUA (FrOS & OpenTX Supported) or through FreeLink App with Airlink S. The
Neuron ESC is encased in a CNC aluminum protective shell which also aids in heat dissipation. In order to fully
enjoy the benefits of the products, please read the instruction manual carefully and set up the device as described below.
Never connect the 5V output from USB adapter to ESC, or ESC will not work normally.
FrSky ESC Neuron 40/60/80 supports programming parameters through USB Adapter. USB Adapter is
not included in the package.Users could buy BLHeli USB Linker on your own.
The connection diagram is below.

Demag Compensation is meant to protect the motor from stalling which is
caused by over demagnetization of coils. A sudden and sharp increase of
throttle (especially at low RPM) will lead to the stalling or stutter of the motor.
Under the circumstance, Demag Compensation is an appropriate way to fix
the problem.
Motor Timing can be set from 1% to 31% with 10 increments or operate
automatically. A medium setting could make the motor work perfectly, however,
if the motor stutters, it is advised to increase timing.
Maximum Acceleration can be set between 0.1%/ms and 25.5%/ms. It can
also be set to maximum, thus acceleration is not limited. It functions as a
backup parameter. For example, if the setting goes to 10.0%/ms, it means the
power of the motor is not allowed to increase by more than 10% per millisecond.
The Center Throttle can be adjusted from 1001 to 2099. It is only used for
bidirectional operation.
Sets the strength of beacon beeps. The ESC will make beacon beeps of the
signal of throttle has been zero for a given time. Note that set a high beacon
stength will lead to the heating of motors and the ESC.
Sets the delay before beacon beeping starts.
The PWM frequency of motors could be programmed between 16kHz and 48
kHz. Higher PWM frequency will make motors run smoother.
Smart Port
All data measured by S. Port supported products could be passed back to the transmitter.
Smart Port (S. Port) is a signal wire full duplex digital transmission interface developed by FrSky Electronic Co., Ltd. All
products enabled with Smart Port (including XJT module, RX8R receiver, new hub-less sensors, new Smart Dashboard, etc), serial
port user data and other user input/output devices can be connected without limitations for numbers or sequences at a high transmis
sion speed.
Here are the interface of parameter configuration and feedback on OpenTX.
Parameter configuration Telemetry feedback
The Minimum Throttle can be adjusted from 900 to 1615. The value for the
settings ( Minimum Throttle, Maximum Throttle and Center Throttle) are
designed for normal input signal (from 1000 s to 2000 s). For other input signal,
the value must be scaled. For Dshot iuput signal, the setting doesn’t work.
The Maximum Throttle can be adjusted from 1140 to 2100.
Brake On Stop can be set between 1% and 100% or inhibited.
The continuous and frequent throttle stick movements (switch between
the maximum and minimum values ) under the braking function activated
in a very short time would damage the products,you should be careful
the function enable.
Warnings
Before using the ESC, please read through the manuals of all power devices and models. Ensure rational
power configuration, or it will make the unit overloaded and damaged.
Always keep your model away from unsafe elements, such as concrete buildings and high-voltage power
lines. Fly your models according to the manual strictly, or it may cause damage and serious injuries.
Always disconnect the batteries from the ESC after use, or it may drive the motor to rotate and cause injuries.
If the ESC is connected to the battery for a long time, the battery will be fully discharged, which may lead to
the malfunction of both batteries and the ESC.
