Pre-Loaded Micro-SD Card for SFX7

Item Name : PRE-LOADED MICROSD CARD FOR SFX7
Item Number : SFX7-MICROSD-CARD
Capacity: 1GB
Price : CAD$24.95

Price is in Canadian $$ - See XE.Com Currency Converter

 

The SFX7.0 sound module already includes a micro-SD Card, which comes with up to four different sound sets. Do NOT order this card unless you want to purchase more sounds.

These microSD Cards are supplied by us pre-loaded with up to four .sfx7 sound sets of your choice and compatible hardware settings files. You can simply swap in a new microSD Card for the existing one in a SFX7 sound module and have a completely different set of sounds. Each microSD Card also includes the latest firmware and PC software releases and documentation suite. The card comes in a small plastic case.

Note: These microSD cards have been carefully tested by us to meet all performance requirements of the SFX7 sound module. Be wary of other sources of microSD Cards, brand name or not, - they may not work in the SFX7 sound module.

It is highly recommended that you backup all the files on the SFX7 micro-SD card as soon as you receive it.


22 AWG Hook-Up Wire for Loudspeakers and Sound Module Power

Item Name: 22AWG Hook-Up Wire
Item Number: 22AWG-WIRE
Colors: Red, Green or Black
Price: $0.50/ft (300mm)

Colour
 

Please adjust the quantity in your shopping cart to show the correct number of feet of wire for all colours you want. You need black and red for the battery supply and green for a single loudspeaker.
If you are using two loudspeakers we suggest using black and red for them also so as to make sure you wire them in series.

We recommend using this 22AWG solid cored hook-up wire to connect your loudspeaker(s) and battery supply to the SFX7 sound module. Available in red/black (for battery supply or for two loudspeakers) and green (usually for a single loudspeaker). Since two 4Ohm loudspeakers must be wired in series with each other, it is a good idea to use black/red wire for this as it is important to have them wired in phase.

Item Number: 3 x FUSE-3A-FAST

ize: 1/4" x 1 1/4"
Price: $3.00

We recommend adding a 3 Amp in-line fuse in the positive power supply to our sound modules. This is to protect your wiring should there be accidental short circuits or a reversed battery. Note: A fuse will not act fast enough to protect the sound module if you reverse the battery, but it will save your wiring and possibly other components from smoking!

Note: We sell these fuses in sets of three. If you bought only one fuse, and it blows due to wiring errors, then you'll need replacements.

Snubber Diodes for Switched Outputs

Item Name: Snubber Diode - 50V - 1A
Item Number: SND-50V-1A
Price: $1.00

Price is in Canadian $$ - See XE.Com Currency Converter

 

LED flasher and switched outputs on our SFX6.4 sound modules are designed to switch LEDs or lamps, not inductive loads. If you wish to switch any inductive load such as a relay, small motor, solenoid etc., you MUST connect a "snubber" device across the load to prevent reverse inductive kickback voltages from damaging the sound module.

These fast acting Schottky diodes are rated for a reverse voltage of 50V so are able to handle any inductive kickback likely to be generated from loads that our modules can switch. Connect them in reverse across the load so that in normal operation they do not conduct, but when the current is shut off, they conduct the inductive kickback and so prevent it from entering the sound module.

Failure to protect a sound module by not using these diodes VOIDS the sound module warranty.

This male-male servo cable with Futaba style connectors on each end is 300mm long and uses 24AWG stranded wire. It is used to connect R/C receiver throttle and sound select outputs to our SFX6.4 sound module. The SFX6.4 sound module includes two of these cables - one for a Throttle input and one for a Sound Select Input. This is the usual configuration.

If you want to use both throttle or both sound select inputs you will need one of these cables for each additional input.

This high quality USB cable is offered for those users who do not already have such a cable. This is an industry standard USB cable with a male mini-B connector on one end and a male type A USB connector on the other.

Note: This is not a cheap dollar store variety of cable. This is a top quality product from a major cable assembly manufacturer.
