The BEASTX systems offer the possibility of forwarding telemetry data from telemetry devices to the receiver, so that you can display telemetry data in your radio. Since there are no uniform specifications for telemetry data protocols, the BEASTX system acts as middleware between the different technologies. A large number of different sensor data can be received, which is converted internally into a uniform format and then forwarded and processed specifically for the receiving remote control system. The typical application is transmitting battery data from the speed controler of an electric model (battery voltage, power draw, power consumption, ESC temperature, ...) to the radio. So the pilot gets detailed insights of battery status and knows when it's time to land.<br />

In case you're using a receiver with telemetry capability, you can change the telemetry parameters at menu points '''L''' and '''M'''. If needed, you can directly skip to these parameters without scanning receiver type and assigning functions at RECEIVER MENU points '''A''' and '''B''' by pushing and holding the button for at least 2 seconds at menu points '''A''' or '''B'''.<br />

* In GOVERNOR MENU you can use the '''signal divider''' and '''gear ratio''' adjustment to calculate the rotor head speed from the incoming motor speed. Most ESCs will send the electrical motor speed on the telemetry channel only, so you must divide the motor speed by the number of magnet pole pairs and by the main gear ratio of your helicopter, in order to display the rotor speed. See [[Manuals:MBULTRAFblV52:Governormenu_E/en|GOVERNOR MENU E]] and [[Manuals:MBULTRAFblV52:Governormenu_E/en|GOVERNOR MENU F]] for more details.

After receiver scan and function assignment an additional setup screen for telemetry will open, in case you're using a receiver with telemetry capability. If needed, also you can directly access the telemetry options without changing your basic radio setup by clicking the buttons in overview screen of RECEIVER MENU.<br />

Older Kontronik® JIVE controllers come with a 3-pin debug connector that is normally used to program the motor controller by the use of a jumper wire. However, this connection also outputs some basic information about the motor controller and battery, which can be used for telemetry purpose.<br />

The Kontronik® JIVE PRO/Kosmik controllers comes with a 5-pin connector that is normally used to program the motor controller by the use of a jumper wire. Since firmware version 1.10 (JIVE Pro)/4.12 (KOSMIK) Kontronik® added a generic telemetry data output to this connection. Please make sure your JIVE PRO/KOSMIK is updated to the latest version. On first generation KOSMIK series ESCs the telemetry port is the socket in the middle. On newer KOSMIK (Cool) ESCs you can choose, which port to use by software. Here select the generic Kontronik® telemtry protocol.<br />

Connect the control wire of your OMP ESC to port [IO1]. Connect the pin labeled with "TX" from the ESC to the port [IO2] using a single servo wire with plugs on both sides. Optionaly you can connect the yellow wire for measuring the motor speed to the [RPM] input at MICROBEAST ULTRA, so that it is out of the way. For telemetry transmission it is not needed as the data will be included in the telemetry signal!<br />

MICROBEAST ULTRA allows to use telemtry from a Spektrum® AVIAN ESC with SMART battery feature in combination with any receiver type. Anyhow, when using a Spektrum® transmitter you can get full advantage of the Spektrum® SMART programming feature. Using with another type of radio system, you will only get basic telemetry functions (current, voltage, temperature, consumption, pwm).<br />
