The Spektrum
SR6200A AVC
Telemetry Receiver
™
®
is compatible with all Spektrum DSMR
transmitters. Telemetry functions require a Spektrum
DSMR transmitter capable of telemetry. Visit the
product page for your transmitter at SpektrumRC.com
for more information.
Binding and Calibrating
Binding is the process of linking the SR6200A receiver
to your Spektrum transmitter. The AVC features on the
receiver can be enabled or disabled during the binding
process. There is no bind plug on the SR6200A, a
button is used to put the receiver in bind mode.
Bind Button
IMPORTANT: You must calibrate the SR6200A
receiver each time it is placed in bind mode,
regardless of AVC being enabled or disabled.
Binding and Calibration Process
Upon initial setup after the first bind, the model must
be configured for servo direction, trim and travel. Then
the receiver must be rebound and calibrated to those
settings for proper operation. Center the steering trim
and throttle trim on the transmitter before beginning.
1. Press and hold the bind button on the receiver.
2. Power on the receiver. The orange LED flashes,
indicating the receiver is in bind mode. Release the
bind button after the orange LED illuminates.
3. Put your transmitter in bind mode.
4. The bind process is complete when the orange
LED on the receiver remains lit. At this stage
the receiver is connected but must complete
calibration before it will operate.
5. Pull the transmitter trigger to full throttle, pause,
then return the trigger to center.
6. Push the transmitter trigger to full brake, pause,
then return the trigger to center.
7. Turn the transmitter steering wheel to full right,
pause, then return the wheel to center.
8. Turn the transmitter steering wheel to full left,
pause, then return the steering wheel to center.
The orange LED flashes to confirm the settings
have been accepted.
9. Turn off the vehicle to complete the binding and
calibration process.
CAUTION: When the bind process is complete,
the throttle and steering channels are active.
Keep hands and loose objects away from all spinning
parts on the vehicle.

IMPORTANT: You must rebind the transmitter and
surface
®
receiver if you:
• change the servo reversing after binding
• change the travel after binding
• change the receiver mounting orientation
• use the receiver with a different model memory
• install the receiver in a different vehicle
• use the receiver in 5.5ms and want telemetry,
rebind in 11ms
• use the receiver with a DSMR transmitter and you
change the frame rate in the transmitter
Failsafe
In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during
use, the receiver will drive the throttle channel to the
neutral position. If the receiver is powered on prior
to turning on the transmitter, the receiver will enter
the failsafe mode, driving the throttle channel to the
neutral position. When the transmitter is turned on,
normal control is resumed.
IMPORTANT: Failsafe activates only in the event
that signal is lost from the transmitter. Failsafe will
NOT activate in the event that receiver battery power
decreases below the recommended minimums or
power to the receiver is lost.
Disabling AVC Technology
AVC may be disabled during binding.
1. Connect power to the receiver and quickly
press and release the bind button three times
(within 1.5 seconds).
2. Put your transmitter in bind mode.
3. Follow steps 5-9 in the Binding and Calibration
Process to calibrate the receiver.
When the AVC system has been disabled, the LED
on the receiver will show three flashes upon power
up, and then remain lit. The receiver is bound and
operating normally when the LED remains illuminated.
TIP: If the AVC feature in the receiver is active and the
AVC menu in the transmitter is Inhibited, AVC functions
will default to the AUX 1 and AUX 2 operation, and in
this scenario, AVC will not work correctly.
Selecting INH in the AVC menu on your transmitter
will not disable AVC.
AVC Technology Setup
For the best AVC performance, use the AVC menu on your
Spektrum transmitter to tune and manage AVC settings.
Order of operations for AVC setup:
1. Install the receiver in your vehicle
2. Bind the vehicle and complete the calibration
procedure.
3. Set up servo sub trim, reversing and travel to suit
your vehicle.
4. Re-bind and complete calibration again so
calibration matches the model setup.
5. Drive the vehicle with no gain on AVC settings to
verify your travel and other basic settings. If any
changes are made re-bind and re-calibrate.
6. Follow the AVC tuning procedure in this manual.
Servo Travel with AVC Technology
AVC technology requires at least 80% travel on steering
and throttle in all directions to complete calibration.
If you have reduced travel to below 80%, you must
increase the travel above 80% to complete calibration.
For vehicles with a mechanical brake, very little servo
travel is used to apply braking force. In this case it is
common to reduce throttle travel for braking well below
80%. To calibrate a vehicle with a mechanical brake,
increase the brake travel above 80% whenever the
vehicle is calibrated (bound), then change the braking
travel back to the travel setting for your brakes.
AUX channels and AVC Technology
When AVC is active, the SR6200A receiver will use
the AUX 1 and AUX 2 channels for gain control. AUX
1 and AUX 2 should be allocated for AVC when AVC is
active. This is done automatically when the AVC menu is
selected in your transmitter, but if you are not using the
AVC menu, AUX1 or AUX2 should not be used for other
mixes or to control other applications (servos, etc.)
The AUX 1 and AUX 2 ports can be used in AVC mode
to power a personal transponder, lights, drive servos,
or operate auxiliary devices. However, AUX 1 will
command steering gain, and AUX 2 will command
throttle gain regardless of what is plugged into the
AUX 1 or AUX 2 ports. AUX 1 and AUX 2 are not
independent when AVC is active. For an independent
channel, use AUX 3 or 4.
TIP: Using the SR6200A receiver without the AVC
menu on your transmitter or using AUX 1 or AUX 2 to
command auxiliary functions may result in poor AVC
performance.
• If 5.5ms frame rate is selected in the transmitter,
only two channels, Steering and Throttle, are
operational. The Aux channels can be used to
power a personal transponder or lights.
• If a frame rate other than 5.5ms is selected, the
Aux channels will operate as extra servo channels.
