A battery backer enables the user to install a dual power supply
for the receiving system, which provides an extra margin of
safety. In this case two receiver batteries are used, de-coupled
from each other by the battery backer. The advantages of a dual
power supply are as follows:
•
If one battery or switch harness fails, the second battery
continues to supply power to the receiving system.
•
The total current load of the model's airborne receiving sys-
tem is shared by two batteries and two sets of connector
contacts.

For large-scale models with many powerful servos and a corre-
spondingly high total current drain, in the interests of safety we
recommend the use of a high-quality professional power supply,
as produced by a number of specialist manufacturers. These
power supplies generally feed energy directly to the consumer
units (servos) from the dual battery system, and not via the
receiver. The power supply usually delivers a stabilised current to
the receiver.

Note Note
A power supply (battery system) in good condition and of ade-
quate capacity for the purpose is indispensable for the safe
operation of any model:
•
Use only high-quality receiver batteries of adequate capacity.
The cells should be balanced, and the pack properly main-
tained and charged.
•
Cables should be of adequate conductor cross-section. Keep
all leads as short as possible, and avoid unnecessary connec-

If the system voltage falls below 3.5 V the receiving system
may fail to work properly. Such voltage collapses may occur
due to flat, poor-quality or defective receiver batteries, cable
conductors of inadequate cross-section, poor-quality connec-
tors, or from overloading or faults in the BEC system.

SING THE RECEIVER
RX- - - - 9 SYNTH DS IPD RX 9 SYNTH DS IPD
The RX RX 9 SYNTH DS IPD 9 SYNTH DS IPD
fitted with one LED and one button (SET). These are used as
follows:
•
To set the RF channel
•
To activate the FAIL-SAFE function and store the FAIL-SAFE
positions
•
To switch off the IPD filter (e.g. for range checks)
•
To display the error count
•
To reset the receiver to the factory default settings (RESET)
The various operational states are indicated by the LED. The
following section describes the receiver settings and correspond-
ing LED CODES.

WITCHING ON
If you have already set the receiver to an RF channel, the LED
flashes after you switch it on:
LED Code 3
( IPD filter active
If the receiver picks up an invalid signal, or no signal at all, when
it is switched on, the LED glows constantly until a valid signal is
received:
LED Code 1
If you have not yet set an RF channel (new receiver, or after a
RESET), the RF channel search commences automatically. The LED
flashes during the RF channel search:

The receiver checks the operating voltage after the battery
backer: the value must be above 4.5 V immediately after it is
switched on. If not, the receiver will not work until the voltage
rises to a value above 4.8 V. If this should happen, the LED lights
up briefly, then stays off until an operating voltage of more than
4.8 V is present:
LED Code 0

ETTING THE
RX- - - - 9 SYNTH DS IPD RX
With the RX RX
vers the RF channel is set by means of an RF channel search,
during which the receiver searches for the most powerful trans-
mitter on the band. For this reason it is essential that your
transmitter, set to the desired RF channel, should be in the im-
mediate vicinity of the model (receiver) during the RF channel
search. During the RF channel search keep the receiver a reason-
able distance (> approx. 3 m) from other transmitters which are
switched on.
