TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
BINDING
Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize
theGUID(GloballyUniqueIdentier)codeofasinglespecic
transmitter.TheDX2EandSR310areboundatthefactory.Ifyou
need to rebind, follow the instructions below.
1. With the receiver off, insert the bind plug into the BIND port
on the receiver.
2. Power the receiver through any other port. The orange LED
will flash continuously, indicating the receiver is in bind mode.
3.Withthesteeringwheelandthrottletriggerinthefailsafe
positions, normally full brakes and straight steering (see the
Failsafe section on this page for more information), press and
hold the bind button and turn on the transmitter. The green
LED on the front of the transmitter will flash within three
seconds, indicating the transmitter is in bind mode.
4. Release the bind button when the green LED flashes.
Continue to hold the steering wheel and throttle trigger in the
failsafe positions until the LED on the receiver glows solid.
5. The LED on the receiver will glow solid when the transmitter
and receiver are bound.
6. Remove the bind plug and store it in a convenient place.
You must rebind when:

FAILSAFE
In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during use, the
receiver will drive the servos to their preprogrammed failsafe
positions (normally full brakes and straight steering). If the receiver
is turned on prior to turning on the transmitter, the receiver will
enter failsafe mode, driving the servos to their preset failsafe
positions. When the transmitter is turned on, normal control is
resumed. Failsafe servo positions are set during binding (see
binding a receiver above).
