Kontronik Telemetry
This telemetry is DEPRECATED and no longer recommended. Use TelMe Telemetry instead for all recent Kontronik ESCs. Wiring is easier and offer higher precision and telemetry data quality. Please note - Kontronik TelMe module is not needed.
Kontronik KOSMIK and JIVE PRO ESC has telemetry feature built-in in dedicated telemetry port. This allows telemetry data transmission to the unit.
This telemetry is available only for Jeti integration (Jeti EX Bus), Spektrum integration and Futaba with the Spirit firmware v2.4+. In the future versions should work with other too.
Do not connect the Telem KONTRONIK cable when ESC telemetry is Disabled in the software.

If you need to use Spirit Settings software, you can deactivate temporarily ESC Telemetry by not turning transmitter on. At this moment normal connection for the USB interface or Wireless connection is established.
