Disconnect RX-18 and plug cables to the same connector on TK board,
Set
Sound Volume to middle
Connect a switch
cable (for example, HL Smoke Unit Switch Cable)
to
Switch Cable Port as power switch. Because HL tank already have
power switch on battery cable, you can just to short
Switch Cable Port's two pins or connect to a switch cable and keep it
switched on.
Connect
channel cables to receiver according to RC
mode( See picture "TK series connector and pin assignments" ) . if you are not sure what mode you RC system is, just swap CH2 and CH3 and
try again. TK20 board has BEC( Battery
eliminate
circuit),
can power receiver through channel cables, no additional battery is needed for
receiver
Set CH1,
2 and 3 trimmer on transmitter to center position, Set CH4 trimmer on
transmitter to most left or right position,
Connect power adaptor( See FAQ )
Switch on TK board and transmitter, you should hear
turret traverse
sound. if not, please contact us.
gently
move CH4(Multi
function control signal 2)
trimmer to center till
turret traverse is gone.
gently
move CH2(Throttle )
trimmer up and down if you hear motor hum sound.
Cannon
firing sound should be generated and
recoil servo should moves when move
CH3 stick to most top position, if not, gently move CH3(Multi
function control signal 2 )
trimmer up and down till
it work correctly.
You are
all set
Disconnect power adaptor and connect battery( make sure that battery is fully
charged).
In HL original design, gun
Elevation and AirSoft sharing same driving H/W, so the gun elevation can only be
controlled in one direction, if you missed the angle you want, you will
need to wait a full cycle of gun elevation, to correct this problem, we add
dedicate AirSoft control h/w to TK20 board. the following shows you how to
correct HL tank and get two direction elevation.
The
picture below is original wiring in HL tank:
Modify
it as the following:
1.
Disconnect red wire between safety switch and gun barrel elevation unit.
2.
Change original 3P connector to 4P type, add additional wire from safety switch
to 4P connector,
3. Add
4P connector HUL-8P PCB connector
4.
AirSoft unit is now controlled by red-black pair, gun barrel unit is
controlled by red-white pair. and you can connect 8P connector to CN9 on
TK-18/20 with original cable.
5(Optinal). refer to wiring diagram, wire 2.2 ohm
1/2W (color code: red read gold gold) resistor to turret rotate, elevation and airsoft motor in serial
to limit the current to protect FETs on TK22 in case you stall motor. you can find 2.2 ohm
resistor on RX-18. Done!
HL Tail Light Correction
Tail
Light in HL tank is wire to MG light, so the Tail Light flashes when MG firing,
this is very funny to us, to correct this problem and make tail light to be
controlled with Headlight, please refer to the picture below and rewire it.
1. Remove 2 pin plug from PCB, twist angled
pins to opposite side,
2.
Connect Tail Light LED + pin( Red wire of Tail Light cable) to CN9.3 pin(
Yellow wire )
3.
Connect a 200 Ohm resistor between 2-P connector pin and CN9.2 pin(Green), a SMD
type resistor is used in this example to save space.

FAQs
Q:My Tk22 can not
register a hit from Tamiya tank.
A:
To check "Receive Tamiya IR code" setting. TK22 won't
response Tamiay IR code when this setting is disabled.
Q:
Airsoft unit fires continuously and have no cannon sound.
A:When main Main Gun
Function Mode is configured to AirSoft
Mode, TK22/20 start to drive AirSoft motor (thought CN9 3rd &4th pin) when fire
cannon command is received.
when Airsoft just fired, Airsoft switch is closed , Tk22 knows it thought CN3 Pin4
& Pin5.
and then stop to drive Airsoft Motor and start to generate cannon. So in order
to make it works properly, AirSoft montor need to be connected to CN9 pin3
and pin4. AirSoft switch connector to CN3 Pin4
& Pin5.
You can
simply test it by a
tweezers, to short and release
it will stop AirSoft motor.
Q:
How to avoid damage that caused by short circuit to the board? A:Damage can be prevented by using a current limited power
adaptor as power source, first to find a ~6V, 400mAh power adaptor, 1K 1/4W ohm
resistor, LED and a motor cable(from HL cable Set)
then
connect + wire(with white strip) from adaptor to red wire of HL cable, - wire to
black wire of HL cable, adn wire resistor and LED as the following to act as
indicator.
Each
time, when you did some modification on circuit or after installation, use this
as power source fist. plug connect each by each, and LED will be dimmed
immediately if any shortage in circuitry and not thing on TK board will be
damaged because power can only supply low & limited current.
The
board might be act very strange when it's power by this, such as motor can not
moves will, cannon fired unexpectedly when turret rotation sound comes up, these
are quite normal because current is not enough.
Q:
I accidentally shorted speaker wire and now had barely any sound, everything
still works but hardly any sound. A:A FB might be damaged because of
over current, please remove it and short its two pads by solder or wire. Of
course, It's the best if you can find a 200 ohm FB and replace the broken one.
Q:
How to interface TK35 board to 6W external sound booster(amplifier) A:This picture shows the pin
assignment of
external amplifier in this example, Battery + & Battery - are power input pin,
SIN+ and - is for audio signal input, SPK+ and - is speaker port
First
to disconnect black wire from HL Volume control board and isolate it with tape,
wire a 2-P, 2.54mm pitch connector wire to Volume control board as shown below
Then
to power amplifier by battery or additional 7.2~12V battery pack,
normally, higher the power voltage, higher the max. output power to speaker, just make sure ground of TK
board & additional battery pack
are connected firmly. In this case, we just get power(7.2V) from TK22 bottom side.
Finally, connect power form TK22 to Battery+ & Battery - pin, connect 2-P, 2.54mm pitch
connector wire SIG+ and SIG-,and then connect sparker to SPK+ and SPK- pin.
We recommend that to use power adapter(7.2V, 400mAh) as power
source after rewiring. then switch to battery when everything are tested OK.
Q: Tank hull
recoil movement direction is not correct, moves forward and then backward while
firing main gun. A: Just need to swap motor cables, CN6 to Motor
Right, CN7 to Motor Left, and turn on servo reverser function on throttle
channel from radio transmitter.
Q: All function runs but just no sound!!
A:
This can be the
common issue on HL Volume Control
board, just to short outer pins of CN4 with
tweezers to verify it. if
sound comes out when doing this, the HL volume control board is broken.
Q:Tank
moves backward faster than forwards and does not turn. It only turn if firstly
turn steering stick and secondly throttle stick.
A: To turn off mixer on transmitter and test
again.
Q:Can get motor
sounds, cannon sounds, turret sounds, but no motion on either drive motors or
turret rotation gearbox
A: Check if battery voltage
is too low, auto cutoff function cuts motor off when battery voltage is too low.
Q:It
is possibleto change the
sound?
A:No, to change
sound on TK board required some equipment and technique, so you can not do it by
yourself, but we can if you send us processed
sound file(22KHz, 8-Bit format) that you want
to program into,
average lead time is 2 weeks, This service is free of charge with MOQ( Minimum
order quantity) of 3 units.
The following are the sound effect section you can change.
A: A piece of software
that convertsRudder and
Throttlecontrol signalto Left and
Right track speed signal. All TK board has mixer on it, mixer
function on RC transmitter need to be turned off.
Q:What is Safety shutoff:
A:
Controller cuts motor off and waits signal come back.
Q:What is Auto cutoff:
A:The motor cutoff will
occurred when battery input drops below minimum supply voltage of controller.
Q: Which RC system can works
with TK board:
A:Basically, TK can work with all kind of aftermarket RC system
as long as it's PWM system, here is a table list most popular one.

Q: Audio Amp thermal
protection:
A:
that turns off device when junction temperature over 150 degree C to prevent
damage
Q:
Is it possible to make additional settings using
existing IR signalsfor example to make
HL IR
signal and 9 hits can take, originally 5 hits?
A:
yes, IR code to receive, IR code to transmit, preset
& battle data can be set
independently.
Q:
Is it possible to set setting with other device
(not SONY IR code remote)?
A:Only Sony IR code remote can be used, you can also
have universal remote and configure it to SONY mode.
Q:Any Other
SONY remote, such as SONY Bravia unified TV
remote, can config TK20? A:
Can't sure, with more and more
setting function are added, some code not common on every remote are used. so we
suggest to use same remote as we use.
Q: What's BEC
A:BEC stands for
battery elimination circuit. This circuit powers the
receiver thought channel cable, no
secondarybattery source is required.
Precaution
Use dry battery or power supply as
power source at testing to keep burn down anything if any error on modification.
then use chargeable battery when every function working normally.
Read
carefully and fully understand the instructions before commencing assembly.
Metal
part on FET can not be touched with any metal when TK board is operating.
