Assigning a transmitter identifier to the
receiver (binding)
In addition to control information, when the remote control is
operating, an electronic identifier is sent with each transmitter
impulse. This is how the receiver recognizes that the signal has come
from its own transmitter. Since many millions of transmitter identifiers
are available, it is extremely unlikely that a different transmitter could
influence your receiver.
Upon first use, however, the transmitter must communicate this
identifier to teach each new receiver. For this purpose, the following
process is necessary. To the degree possible, it should be undertaken
at a place where no other electrical signal – especially not one from
another 2.4 GHz transmitter – can interrupt this transmission over the
radio path.
1. Place the transmitter and model next to each other at a short
distance. They should be operational but shut off.
2. Hold down the setup button on the transmitter and turn on the
transmitter. An acoustic signal sounds. Now, at low power, the
transmitter gives off signals and its blue LED display blinks slowly.
3. Hold down the setup button on the model and turn on the model.
The red LED on the receiver will light up temporarily. Let up on the
button a short time later. In this mode, the receiver registers the
transmitter's identifier and stores it. From that moment on, the
receiver accepts only (radio) control signals that are accompanied
by that transmitter's identifier.
4. The next time the receiver is switched on, its continuously glowing
LED shows that it is ready to run.
