3 Compared with the "2 in 1 Professional LCD Program Box"
Models of LCD program boxes:
2 in 1 Professional LCD program box (Already stopped)
Multifunction LCD program box: It is a new priduct uses MCU (microprocessor) with larger memory, it has a new function to work as Lipo battery voltmeter to measure the voltage of the whole battery pack and each cell.
Firmware for the LCD program boxes:
2 in 1 Professional LCD program box:
It has 2 types of firmware
a) Type A: The firmware with postfix “_V3” (eg. V1.11_120331_V3) is only suitable for XERUN-120A-SD V3 and V3.1 ESC
b) Type B: Firmware without postfix “_V3” (eg. V1.08_120504) is suitable for the ESC below except the XERUN-120A-SD V3 or V3.1 ESC.
i. XERUN series V2.0 and V2.1 car ESCs;
ii. EZRUN series V2.0 car ESCs;
iii. Platinum series aircraft/helicopter ESCs.
iiii. Platinum V3 series aircraft/helicopter ESCs.
Please select the correct firmware for the 2 in 1 professional LCD program box according to the type of the ESC. The factory-preset firmware is Type B, but it can be upgraded to Type A and downgraded to Type B by user himself.
Multifunction LCD program box:
