4.10. Powering Up
After the Solo Hornet is connected to its device, it is ready to be powered up.
Caution: Before applying power, ensure that the DC supply is within the
specified range and that the proper plus-minus connections are in order.
4.11. Initializing the System
After the Solo Hornet has been connected and mounted, the system must be set up and
initialized. This is accomplished using the Composer, Elmo’s Windows-based software
application. Install the application and then perform setup and initialization according to the
directions in the Composer Software Manual.
4.12. Heat Dissipation
The best way to dissipate heat from the Solo Hornet is to mount it so that its heat sink faces up.
For best results leave approximately 10 mm of space between the Solo Hornet's heat sink and
any other assembly.
4.12.1. Solo Hornet Thermal Data
• Heat dissipation capability (θ): Approximately 10 °C/W.
• Thermal time constant: Approximately 240 seconds (thermal time constant means that
the Solo Hornet will reach 2/3 of its final temperature after 4 minutes).
• Shut-off temperature: 86 °C to 88 °C (measured on the heat sink)
