S3173SVi
Series Wiring S.BUS2 Servo
For Glider and EP Glider models
Usage Precautions
WARNING
The S3173SVi servo is designed to be used only for glider and EPglider models. Due to the special design of the S3173SVi, we cannot recommend its use in other types of models (gas powered models.)
Do
not use it for a gas powered models.
There is a danger of Z a N ing up loose connection, for a vibration peculiar to an engine model. 0 oreover, loose connection Z ill be Z o N en up if fuel is applied to a Z iring M unction.
Turn on the power in transmitter ń receiver order. , n addition, always chec N the operation of all the servos before Á ight.
Do not insert or remove the servo connector while the receiver power is
ON.

CAUTION
Do not touch the servo case immediately after servo operation.

Do not turn the servo horn with unreasonable force. The servo ma \ be damaged.
Do not disassemble or modify the servo. The servo has a precision construction. Futaba & orp. Z ill not be responsible for an \ disassembl \ or modi ¿ cation other than those speci ¿ ed b \ us.
Do not drop the servo or expose it to strong shocks or vibrations. , t Z ill damage Z ith a shoc N .
Use the servo as an actuator in hobby applications. Futaba Z ill not be responsible if the servo is used in applications other than the above.

i Connector
• The servo of
SVi
series is used for glider, and EP glider.
• Connector exchange of a servo
The servo of SVi series is e [ changeable for the connector Z hich suited \ our model.
Please choose out of the i-connector prepared as an option.
0 oreover, Z hile the connector is ¿[ ed to the model, a servo is removed and there is a maintainable advantage.
i - i Connector - Series Wiring
• If the i-i connector (option) and S.BUS/S.BUS2 system are used, two or more S3173SVi's is connectable.
• Each servo by which serial connection was made by carrying out ch setup carries out only ch operation of it to a servo in S.BUS/S.BUS2.
• Simple wiring will be brought about also by glider which carries many servos.

WARNING
Be sure to insert the connector until it stops at the deepest point.
To prevent the servo lead cable from being broken by vibration during Á ight, provide a little slack in the cable and fasten it at suitable points. Periodically check the cable during daily maintenance.
Do not apply a vibration strong against a servo and a connector.

bout the S.BUS/S.BUS2 system
What is S.BUS?
Different from conventional radio control systems the S.BUS
system uses data communication to transmit control signals from a receiver to a servo, gyro, or other
S.BUS
compatible device.
This data includes commands such as “move the channel 3 servo to 15 degrees, move the channel 5 servo to 30 degrees” to multiple devices. The S.BUS
devices execute only those commands for their own set channel. For this reason, it can be used by connecting multiple servos to the same signal line.
Many S.BUS
servos is in the connected state, one servo of them can be set it up.
The ID code of each servo is used for it. ID code is indicated on the seal of the case.
After carrying in a model, it is convenient, if you use attached ID seal and CH seal when ID cannot be seen.

S.BUS2
Using the S.BUS2 port an impressive array of telemetry sensors may be utilized.
This servo is connectable with the both sides of S.BUS and S.BUS2 port.
