X-GYRO 1000

AEO Head Movement Tracker X-GYRO 1000 USER MANUAL

Introduction

X-GYRO 1000 is a two axis head tracking system, based on G sensor technique, designed for tracking complicated three-dimensional motion like head movement and so on, it can also be used on the areas of controlling drones and robots, transferring three-dimensional motion signals from hands, head of human to corresponding movement system on RC model, drone or robot

    The basic version of X-GYRO 1000 is specially designed for RC models with FPV(First Personal Version),it can be used perfectly with main stream transmitters that gets self defining trainer channel on market or to be co-operated with wireless high frequency modular independently. It can transfer the checked  movement signals to transmitter, and the transmitter can send out signals of head movement or position of head(on two axis), so that the real synchronization can be realized when screen on the goggles displayed video pictures, users  can look around as if he were inside the RC model. Since it is compatible with transmitters on nowadays market, it is easy and simple to use it and grasp it, its best advantage is that no need any fixed reference object to check and measure the inflection position of RC model, and no drift at all when it in stationary state compared with other facilities that need to make use of very complicated reference facilities or manual controlled transmitter, mechanical arms or other tools are heavy and not easy to be carried along, it greatly limited users’ freedom.

Specifications:

●  requirement for power: X-GRYO needs 8V to 12V DC power supply. Some transmitters, especially those FYTABA ones, can supply power directly by trainer connector.(ex. T9Z FF9C). Some transmitters cannot supply power to X-GYRO, for ex. T14MZand 12FG. The simplest solution is to use an extra battery for those RC transmitters. The connector is already included in package.

●  Size：25mmX35mm

●  Weight：20g

●  Range for measuring：+-90degree/second rotational speed movement.

Factory Default Settings:

●  Channels：X axis-channel 7  Y axis-channel 8

●  Detective range: 45 degree

Conditions of usage：

1. X-GYRO 1000 Setting

If your transmitter can program their channel setting and also can program student s channel setting while turn on trainer function. You don’t need to change the setting the X-GYRO. If your transmitter cant change the students channel setting, you can use the programming function of X-GYRO. More detail about X-GYRO setting, please read the section“ X-GYRO Porgramming”.

2. Install X-GYRO

The unit should be mounted so that it is flat when you look straight, and the cable exits either in front or at the back.

3. Trace Mode

For use with the X-GYRO, your camera needs to be mounted on a pan/tilt

4. Preparing:

The X-GYRO sensor is a plug-and-play device that can be used very easily.  

5. Using:

The package included additional connecters.(see picture) Two type FUTABA adapter and one external power connecter.

If your FUTABA transmitter has less than 8 channel, such like 4VF or 6EX, you need use PPM signal mixer.

If you transmitter is FUTABA 8 CH or upper, Just direct connect and play.

If your transmitter is FUBATA T12MZ or T14MZ, you need to use external power connector (included in box) and 2 cell Li-Po with JST connecter.

A.  Turn the TX on. The sensor s LED will blink just one second(the fastest response in the world at the present time). It can be saved as “zero movement” for reference. During this time; the module stores the “zero movement reference. Its very important NOT to move the sensor at that moment,

B.  Turn on the switch on Tx.

C.  Use the swith to back to the position and restore the drift.
