9.2 The functions of the SET button
Pressing the SET button on the top of the receiver when
switching on initiates the binding process (
In receive mode, the SET button can be used to trigger two addi-
tional functions. The function selected depends on the length of
the button-press:
1. Save error counter or FAIL-SAFE settings
Press the SET button for 0.5 to 1 second (
2. RESET receiver to factory default settings
Press the SET button for longer than ten seconds (
When the SET button is pressed, the STATUS LED generates

9.3 Binding
The receiver must be set up to match the transmitter before the
system can work. This process is known as "binding".
! Note:
The signal output to the servo sockets is switched off during the
binding procedure. This means that the servos are "soft", and do
not move, while the motor connected to a modern electronic
speed controller remains OFF due to the lack of a signal. Never-
theless, it is important to secure the model and keep well clear
of the power system.
The binding process is necessary in the following cases:
The first time the receiver is used (
After a receiver RESET (
After the transmitter setting for "Fast Response" has been
changed. For more information on this please refer to the
operating instructions supplied with your M-LINK transmitter
or M-LINK RF module.
After the transmitter setting for the frequency range has been
changed. For more information on this please refer to the
operating instructions supplied with your transmitter or M-
LINK RF module ("France mode").
If the receiver is to be operated in conjunction with a different
M-LINK transmitter.
9.3.1 Sequence of the binding procedure
1. The first step is always to set the transmitter and receiver to
Binding mode:
Place the transmitter and the receiver aerials close to-
gether.
Switch the transmitter ON in binding mode.
(see the operating instructions supplied with your M-LINK
transmitter or M-LINK RF module).
Switch the RX-9/12/16-DR pro M-LINK receiver ON in
binding mode:
Use a pointed object to press and hold the SET button
on the top of the receiver (

both switch automatically to normal operation (
The STATUS LED on the receiver flashes slowly
(LED code 3
! Note: in most cases the binding process only takes a few
seconds.
9.3.2 Binding: locating and correcting faults
Fault:
During the binding procedure the STATUS LED on the receiver
continues to flash at high frequency for a few seconds.
Cause:
No M-LINK signal of adequate strength detected.
Remedy:
Reduce the distance between your transmitter and the
receiver aerials.
Ensure that your transmitter is switched ON in binding mode.
Repeat the binding procedure.
9.4 Switching the receiver ON and OFF
in normal operations
9.4.1 Sequence of switching ON and OFF
To switch the M-LINK RC system ON, please use this
procedure:
1. Switch the transmitter ON.
2. Switch the receiver ON.
The STATUS LED on the receiver flashes slowly and evenly
(LED Code 3
An M-LINK signal is being received,
the RC system is ready for use.
To switch the M-LINK RC system OFF, please use this
procedure:
1. Switch the receiver OFF.
2. Now switch the transmitter OFF.
9.4.2 Fault finding and fault correction when switching ON
Fault:
The STATUS LED on the receiver lights up continuously after
switching on (LED code 1
Cause:
No M-LINK signal detected.
Remedy:
Is the transmitter switched on?
Is the transmitter generating an M-LINK signal?
Are the transmitter and receiver bound to each other?
Have you carried out a receiver RESET (
Have you made changes to the setting for "Fast Response"
( 9.3) or "France mode" (
! Note: if no M-LINK signal is detected when the receiver is
switched on, the two LEDs RX1 and RX2 also glow a constant
red.
