<translate><!--T:1-->
HobbyWing Platinum V4 ESC has telemetry feature built-in in the Programming port. This allows telemetry data transmission to the unit.
To allow the ESC telemetry, it is necessary to have updated ESC firmware to a recent, non VBar firmware.</translate>
 
== <translate><!--T:2-->
Telemetry Cable</translate> ==
<translate><!--T:3-->
To allow the telemetry data transmission the '''Telem UNI cable''' is required. This cable is available in our [http://store.spirit-system.com/en/accessories/34-telemuni-cable.html Eshop].</translate>

{{Quote|<translate><!--T:31-->
We do not recommend to make this cable at home since improper connection will cause permanent damage of the unit.
The Red wire must be internally disconnected always!</translate>}}

== <translate><!--T:4-->
Interfacing</translate> ==

<translate><!--T:5-->
Connect the Telemetry cable to the primary Spektrum satellite port ('''SAT1''') in the unit - apply for Spirit 2, Spirit RS, Spirit Pro, Spirit GT, Spirit GTR.

<!--T:29-->
Smaller Spirit units will utilize the one native Spektrum satellite port ('''SAT''') - apply for μSpirit and Spirit 1.</translate>

<translate><!--T:6-->
Servo connector of the Telem UNI cable should be connected to the ESC - programming port (P).</translate>

== Spirit Settings ==

<translate><!--T:7-->
Power up the ESC and start the Spirit Settings as usually.</translate>

=== <translate><!--T:8-->
Telemetry activation</translate> ===

<translate><!--T:9-->
As the last step you have to set the ESC Telemetry in the Spirit Settings software.</translate>

<translate><!--T:10-->
Go to the '''Advanced/Telemetry settings''' and set the '''HobbyWing Platinum V4''' option.</translate>

<translate><!--T:11-->
Then close the window and save the settings ''(CTRL+S)''. Finally, reconnect battery from the ESC.</translate>

<translate><!--T:12-->
From this moment, everything should work.</translate>

== <translate><!--T:13-->
Displaying telemetry data</translate> ==

<translate><!--T:14-->
You can display telemetry data directly in your radio from now.</translate>

{{Info|[[File:Info.png|18px|]] <translate><!--T:30-->
HobbyWing ESC can transmit Current and Consumed Capacity only when there is a load. Without main blades it will show zero value.</translate>.}}

{{Quote|<translate>Please update your ESC firmware to the most recent firmware, but one which has not "VBar" in the name. Otherwise all telemetry values will be Zero.</translate>}}
