= Okto XL - Combi =

== power ==

 *    voltage : 10 to 30V -> 3 -7S Lipo
 *    6 -layer PCB for optimal heat dissipation . 70u copper layers make the entire circuit board to the heat sink .
 *    current: up to 30A (per unit / peak) and 120A (Total / peak) - with appropriate cooling
 * current limiting and temperature limiting
 *    Active freewheeling -> less power loss



== Fast response with speed control ==

 *    rapid acceleration and braking of the propeller. Active and seamless braking gives the speed precisely and quickly on the new setpoint .
 *    return energy to the lipo when braking. Seamless transition from acceleration to braking
 *    significantly faster control with speed control
 


== Other Features ==

 *    Integrated 12V voltage regulator for external LED-Supply
 *    Switchable LED output -> LEDs can flash in case of undervoltage
 *    Adjustable motor timing in several steps of 13-28° - compatible with the most common BL motors
 *    Adjustable switching frequency ( 10kHz - 20kHz )
 *    PPM to 500 Hz with simultaneous I2C - bus operation for telemetry and data logging
 *    Integrated 12V stabilization for LED lighting and other 12V appliances
 *    Switchable outputs for lighting -> ZB The blinking lights at low voltage
 *    Software adjustable direction of rotation
 *    Adjustable current and temperature limits
 *    Adjustable start-PWM
 *    Silent Start: test tone at startup can be disabled



== Interface ==

 *    various interfaces for setpoint input ( I2C, PPM ( 500Hz ) , serial)
 *    Integrated current measurement measurement of the actual current and the used capacity on the Mikrokopter control
 *    voltage and temperature measurement with data transmission to the ground station and data logging
 *    11-bit resolution (2048 steps )
 *    various feedback to the MikroKopter-FlightCtrl ( blocked motor , power limiting , etc. )
 *    extented configuration options (eg current limit , temperature limit , ...)
 *    two LEDs (OK and Error )
 *    all BLCs are already adressed (address 1-8)
 *    I2C bus access possible in PPM mode - for data logging and telemetry in PPM mode
 *    status messages are transmitted to the FC ( engine blocks , Current, Self-test error ...)
 *    current measurement up to 75A per controller
 *    Convenient configuration of the BL controller via FC



== mechanical data ==

 *    hole: 3mm
 *    Dimensions (W x H ):
 *    weight: appr. 119g

== delivery ==

 *    1 SMD preassembled, programmed and tested board with 8 ESCs
 *    Lipo Power cable (open ends)
 *    1-line cable for LED output control

== Connect ==

 * !FlightCtrl: by the 5-lines molex cable
 * !LiPo: !LiPo plus / !LiPo minus 
 * Stabilized 12V supply: +12V / -
 * Adressing:  The BL-Ctrls are already adressed
 * !LiPo-Voltage outputs (for low currents up to 3A)
 * switched LED Stripes connections (4x)(switched by Out1 or Out2 of the flight control) 
   => Plug the gray connector cable int Out1 or Out2 of the FC to use switchable LED-Lights<<BR>>
   => A / -
 * Motor 1-4
   => Motor outputs 1-4 / A, B, C <<BR>>
   => You can either solder the cables on the top or the bottom side
   => the cable colour is marked for the standart MK-rotation direction
 * Optional: Second Recom -> You can add a second voltage converter (for example 5V) 
 * Buzzer: connect the buzzer ba a 2-line cable to the "BuzZ" marked connections

= Settings =

'''IMPORTANT: '''To change the Settings of the BL-Ctrl V3.0 you need a Software version since V2.02a (KopterTool, FlightCtrl, NaviCtrl)! <<BR>><<BR>>

Normally you have not to change the settings! If you have to to it you can do it like described: <<BR>>

 * open KopterTool
 * press button "Strg" on your keyboard and hold it down.
 * Then "click" "Settings" in the KopterTool.

Now you will see the window of the BL-Ctrl V3.0. <<BR>>
INFO: only if you "click" and activate the single settings there you can change them.<<BR>><<BR>>

= Error codes =

The BL V3 performs a selftest during startup (test-tone). In case of an error, these are the blink codes:

 * 1  "1" = Shortcut between A+ and B-
 * 2  "2" = Shortcut between B+ and C-
 * 3  "3" = Shortcut between C+ and A-
 * 4  "E" = A doesn't go to high
 * 5  "F" = B doesn't go to high
 * 6  "G" = B doesn't go to high
 * 7  "H" = A doesn't go to low
 * 8  "I" = B doesn't go to low
 * 9  "J" = C doesn't go to low
 * 10 "K" = Overcurrent when switching to low
 * 11 "L" = Overcurrent when switching to high
 * 12 "Q" = Cross-circuit between low and high
 * 15 overcurrent while starting the motor
 * 16 error current measurement
 * 17 error voltage measurement
 * 18 error temperaturen measurement

= SW-Update =

If there is a new Software for the BL V3, here you can see how to update the BL: [[http://www.mikrokopter.de/ucwiki/en/BL_V3Update|Update]]

<<BR>><<BR>><<BR>><<BR>>


= FAQ =
== Motor connection ==
The motors can be connected either on the top-side or on the bottom-side. You can ignore the small (pre-)soldered points on the top-side. 

== Adressing ==
The BL-Ctrls are already ardessed. This can't bechanged on this coto.

== Buzzer ==
The buzzer is connected via a cable

== What is the gray 1-line cable for? ==
Plug the gray connector cable into Out1 or Out2 of the FC to use switchable LED-Lights<<BR>>
