4. Návod k obsluze

Once properly installed and wired, the FCHUB-12S V2 provides stable power distribution and regulated outputs for your drone components.

4.1 Rozvod energie

The PDB efficiently distributes power from your LiPo battery to up to four ESCs, handling high continuous and burst currents. The integrated current sensor provides accurate current consumption data to your flight controller.

4.2 Regulated Outputs (BECs)

• 5V Output (5V pad): Provides a stable 5.1V DC output with up to 5A continuous current (6A max). This is suitable for powering your flight controller, receiver, GPS, and other 5V components. It features short-circuit tolerance and overcurrent protection.
• 12V Output (12V pad): Provides a stable 12.0V DC output with up to 4A continuous current (5A max), provided the input voltage is 12V or higher. If input voltage je pod 12V, výstupní objtage will match the input. Ideal for powering VTX, cameras, and other 12V accessories. It also includes short-circuit tolerance and overcurrent protection.
• Switchable 12V Output (12VSW pad): This output can be turned ON/OFF via a PINIO signal from your flight controller, supporting a constant 2A. This is useful for controlling power to components like VTX or LEDs remotely.
• 3.3V výstup: A linear regulator provides 3.3V DC with up to 500mA continuous current, typically used for specific sensors or peripherals requiring 3.3V.

Two LED indicators are present on the board to show the status of the 5V and 12V outputs.

5. Údržba

The FCHUB-12S V2 is designed for durability, but proper care can extend its lifespan and ensure reliable performance.

• Pravidelná kontrola: Periodically inspect the board for any signs of physical damage, loose solder joints, or corrosion.
• Čistota: Keep the board free from dust, dirt, and moisture. Use a soft brush or compressed air for cleaning. Avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the electronics.
• Ochrana životního prostředí: While robust, it is recommended to protect the PDB from direct exposure to water or extreme temperatures. Consider conformal coating for added moisture protection in humid environments.
• Integrita připojení: Ujistěte se, že všechna vodičová spojení jsou bezpečná a řádně izolovaná, aby se zabránilo zkratu.

If you encounter issues with your FCHUB-12S V2, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Žádný výkon:
  • Verify the input battery voltage je v rozsahu 8–60 V.
  • Check all power connections for proper soldering and polarity.
  • Inspect the 5V and 12V LED indicators on the board. If they are off, there might be an issue with the input power or the BECs.
• Nesprávný svtage Čtení:
  • Zajistěte zvtage divider settings in your flight controller firmware (Betaflight, INAV, ArduPilot) are correctly configured as per Section 3.2 or 3.3.
  • Check the physical connection of the voltage sensing wire from the PDB to the flight controller.
• Inaccurate Current Readings:
  • Verify the current sensor scale (Scale 75) is correctly set in your flight controller firmware.
  • Ensure the current sensor signal wire is properly connected.
• Switchable 12V (12VSW) Not Working:
  • Confirm that the PINIO feature is enabled and configured correctly in your flight controller firmware.
  • Check the signal connection from the flight controller to the PDB's PINIO pad.
• Přehřívání:
  • Ensure adequate airflow around the PDB.
  • Verify that the current draw from connected components does not exceed the specified limits for the BECs or the main power distribution.
