11. Starting up the receiver

11.1 Receiver connection

Thereceiver offersconnection optionsfor upto fourservos (CH1, CH2,CH3, CH4)and areceiver battery pack

(BIND/VCC).

Figure5ashowsaconnectionchartforamodelwithexternalreceiverpowersupply(gure5a,item1),asitiscom-

mon,e.g,foracombustionmodel.

Figure 5b shows a connection chart for an electrically powered model in which the speed controller has an integrated

BEC(BECisareceiverpowersupplyintegratedintothespeedcontroller).Thedrivingbattery(gure5b,item1)is

connectedtothespeedcontroller(gure5b,item2)here.TheBECintegratedinthespeedcontrollersuppliesthe

entirereceiversystemwithpowerthroughtheconnectionoftheservoplugfromthespeedcontrollertoCH2.

IfthespeedcontrolleruseddoesnothaveanyintegratedBEC,thereceiversystemmustbeproducedwithanexternal

receiverpowersupply.Usegure5aasreference.Inthiscase,onlytheservoServo2(CH2)needstobereplaced

by the speed controller.

IfanelectronicspeedcontrollerwithintegratedBECisusedinamodel,noexternalpowersupplymustbe

connectedtothereceiver,sincethismaydestroythespeedcontroller.TheBECmaybedisconnectedfrom

thereceiversystemforuseofexternalreceiverpowersuppliesifyouseparatethemiddle,redwireatthe

servo plug of the speed controller and insulated it.

Ifnecessary,youcanconnectanadditionalservotoreceiveroutputCH3andCH4inadditiontothesteeringservo

onreceiveroutput“CH1”andthethrottleservo/speedcontrolleronreceiveroutput“CH2”.Theseservoscanbeused

for various additional functions.

Withaelectronicmodelwithamechanicaldriveregulator,abatteryboxoraseparatereceiverbatterypackisrequi-

red for the power supply of the receiver in all cases. The power supply connection mounted to the mechanical drive

regulatormaynotbeusedsincethevoltageattheplugof7.2V(fora6celldrivebattery)istoohighforthereceiver

and the connected servos.

Pay attention when connecting servos to always ensure the correct poling of the plug connector. The plugged contact

fortheimpulsecable(yellow,whiteororangeaccordingtomanufacturer)mustbeconnectedtotheinner(left)pin

contact.Thepluggedcontactfortheminuscable(blackorbrownaccordingtomanufacturer)mustbeconnectedto

theouter(right)pincontact.

Switchthetransmitteronandthenswitchthereceiveron.IftheBindingfunctioniscorrect,theredcontrolLEDonthe

receiver will light up. Check the correct functionality of the receiver and then switch it back off.

 IftheLEDsinthereceiverdonotlightuportheconnectedservosdonotreacttotheremotecontrolsignals,

the Binding function must be carried out. More information can be found in the later Chapter “Binding func-

tion”.

11.2 Installing the receiver

Theinstallationofthereceiverdiffersaccordingtothemodel.Forthisreason,observetherecommendationsmadeby

the model manufacturer with regard to installation.

Generallyspeaking,youshouldalwaystrytoinstallthereceiverinsuchawaythatitisoptimallyprotectedfromdust,

dirt,dampandvibrations.Double-sidedadhesivefoamorrubberringsaresuitableforsecuringthefoamwrapped

receiverrmlyinplace.

Thelast3centimetresoftheaerialwirearedeemedtheaerial.Theremainingpartonlyservestoextendtheaerial,

to place or position it in a model.

Installtheaerial(i.e.thelast3centimetres)withsuitableaids(e.g.theaerialtubefromthedelivery)sothatitpoints

 Theantennawireofthereceiverhasapreciselycalculatedlength.Forthisreason,theantennawiremay

notbecoiled,loopedorcut.Thereceiverrangewouldbestronglylimitedandthuswouldbeaconsiderable

safety risk.

11.3 Installing the servo

The installation of a servo is always dependant on the model being used. Precise information can be obtained from

the construction documents of the model.

Intheeventofstiffruddersandsteering,servosareunabletooperateintherequiredposition.Theyconsumeunne-

cessary power as a result and the model cannot be controlled cleanly.

Alwaysmounttheservoleverata90°angeltothesteeringrods.Withaservoleverdiagonaltothesteeringrods,the

steering or rudder movement in both steering directions are not of the same magnitude.

Pay attention before installing the servo lever for the drive and steering function to ensure that the trim func-

tionoftherelevantchannelissettothemiddleposition.Formoreinformation,consultthesection“Checking

and setting the digital trimming”.

 TheservoleversattheservosthatareconnectedtoCH3andCH4mustbeinstalledsothattheycannotrun

on block when switching from one end position to the other.

11.4 Binding function

In order for the transmitter and the receiver to communi-

catewitheachother,theymustbeboundusingthesame

digitalcoding.Whendelivered,thetransmitterandrecei-

ver are already coordinated and can be used immediately.

TherenewaloftheBindingfunctionis,primarily,

only necessary after switching a transmitter or receiver or

when eliminating faults.

ThetransmitterandreceiverarenotboundiftheLEDin

thereceiveronlyashesinspiteofthetransmitterbeing

on.

If the transmitter has lost the binding with the receiver due

toaninterference,orifyouwanttobindanewreceiverto

thetransmitter,proceedasdeclaredbelow.

Removeallservoplugs,aswellasanypresentexternalpowersupply,fromthereceiver(1).Connectthebinding

plug(short-circuitplug)tothereceiveronBIND/VCC(3).Connectareceiverbattery(2)toafreechannel(e.g.CH4).

13. Checking the steering and drive function

 Inordertoensurethatthemodeldoesnotdriveoffwhenyouarecheckingthesteeringanddrivefunction,

placethemodelchassisonasuitablebase(blockofwoodorsimilar).Thewheelsshouldbeabletoturn

freely.

13.1 Checking the steering function

 Alwayscarryoutdigitaltrimmingbeforecheckingthesteeringfunction.Formoreinformation,consultthe

section “Starting up the transmitter” in the Chapter “Checking and setting the digital trimming”.

Switch both the transmitter and the receiver on to carry out

the check. If everything has been connected and installed

correctly the steering should react to the rotation motions

of the control wheel.

When the control wheel is in the middle position, the

wheels should be pointing straight ahead.

If the wheels are at an angle although the control wheel

isinthemiddleposition,checktoseewhethertheservo

lever is at an angle to the steering rod.

Inthiscase,undotheservolever,andscrewitbackinto

place one “tooth” offset.

Further deviations in the wheel positions can be corrected

ifnecessarybyadjustingthesteeringrod.

Ifyousteertotheleft,thewheelsshouldturnleft.Ifyou

steertotheright,thewheelsshouldturnright.

If the control direction should react in precisely

the opposite way to the control direction on the

transmitter, this can easily be reprogrammed.

See the Chapters “Selecting the menu” and then

“Reverse”.

13.2 Checking the drive function

 Always carry out digital trimming before checking the drive function. For more information, consult the

section “Starting up the transmitter” in the Chapter “Checking and setting the digital trimming”.

When you pull the accelerator/brake lever for the drive

functionasfaraspossibleinthedirectionofthehandle,

the model should accelerate.

Whenyoupushtheaccelerator/brakeleverforthedrive

functionforwards,themodelshouldbebrakedorswitched

to reverse.

If the control direction should react in precisely the oppo-

sitewaytothecontroldirectiononthetransmitter,thiscan

easily be reprogrammed. See the Chapters “Selecting the

menu” and then “Reverse”.

After you have checked or set the correct drive and stee-

ringfunctions,rstswitchoffthereceiver,thenthetrans-

mitter.
