TELEMETRy G-fORCE SENSORS
USER GUIdE
The Spektrum™ SPMA9585/SPMA9586 Aircraft Telemetry
G-Force sensors are compatible with the Spektrum TM1000
Telemetry Module X-BUS expansion port.
Specifications
Type: SPMA9585/SPMA9586 Aircraft Telemetry G-Force Sensors
Measures: SPMA9585: 3 axis +/- 8G; SPMA9586: 2 axis +/-
40G (X and Z axis), 1 axis +/- 8G (Y axis)
dimensions: 28mm x 16mm x 7mm
Weight: Circuit board—4 gram
Calibration: No user calibration required
Important: The G-Force sensors are +/- 8G and +/-
40G after zero G calibration. The sensor range can vary
slightly. For example, the 8G sensor full range could
be from +7.5G to -8.5G worst case.
Items Included
• 6” X-BUS extension • Sensor
EN
Connection Information
Insert the X-BUS extension into the G-Force Sensor and X-BUS
port of the TM1000 Telemetry Module. The sensor has two ports
for the X-BUS extension to attach. Either plug can be used on the
sensor; when using multiple sensing units, daisy chaining will be
required. The G-Force sensor can be installed anywhere inside
the aircraft for G-Force to display on the telemetry screen.
ATTENTION: Make sure your AirWare ™ software
is updated to the most recent version.
Mount the TM1000 module near the receiver in a position that
allows the 2.5-inch data lead to extend from the receiver’s Data port
to the Data port on the telemetry module. You can use servo tape
to secure the TM1000 module or wrap it in foam with the receiver.
Plug the Data lead into the TM1000 port marked DATA and plug
the other end of the lead into the receiver’s DATA port.
NOTICE: Route and secure the antenna away from any
metallic or conductive materials to give the best range.
Binding the Telemetry
Module and Receiver
1. Using the Bind Stylus, press and hold the bind button
on the side of the TM1000 telemetry module.
2. While depressing the bind button, power the receiver.
The main receiver, all attached remote receivers and the
TM1000 telemetry module should blink, indicating the
system is in bind mode.
3. With the stick and switches in the desired failsafe
positions (normally low throttle and neutral sticks),
put the transmitter into bind mode.
4. The main screen displays the receiver type. After
several seconds, the system connects and reverts
to the main screen.
5. From the main screen, rotate the roller to access the
telemetry screens and verify the flight log data and
G-Force readings.
NOTICE: G-Force must be enabled in the System Setup
Telemetry screen.
Installation
The optional G-Force sensors are designed to easily install in any
aircraft application. The accuracy of the G-Force sensor depends
on position and orientation of the sensor in relation to the aircrafts
center of gravity. For proper orientation ensure the sensor is
mounted to the right side of the fuselage with the leads facing the
rear of the aircraft (refer to diagram). To reset the G-Force telemetry
values to zero, power will need cycled off and then on to the sensor.
