Not All Rx - not all Rx was able to work in this mode.
Since Tx module supports multiple protocols it can be bound with your receiver in one of these modes. The mode
selected during binding depends on:
• The working mode chosen (shown in LED blinks),
• Number of channels sent via PPM from your radio;
• Your receiver capability (number of channels, protocols available).
Working modes and list of protocols supported in each mode:
Single blinks - DSM2, 1024, 22ms:
During binding depending on your receiver it can be:
DSM2, 1024, 22ms 7 and less channel mode
DSM2, 1024, 22ms 8 and more channel mode
double blinks - DSMx, 2048, 22ms:
During binding depending on your receiver it can be:
DSMx, 2048, 22ms 7 and less channel mode
DSMx, 2048, 22ms 8 and more channel mode
DSMx, 2048, 11ms 7 and less channel mode
DSMx, 2048, 11ms 8 and more channel mode
Solid ON - all protocols available for binding
Possibility of Tx module to work with multiple receivers without rebind.
This Tx module is capable to support multiple receivers without rebinding them every time.
This option highly depends on the protocol your receiver was set during binding procedure, its capabilities and
number of channels your radio sends via PPM signal.
You will have to work around with your receivers to find the working mode for each of them to be compatible without
rebinding. If you see that the receiver does not respond try to change mode on Tx module and it will probably work in
another mode.
Also for some receivers 8 and more channels bound in DSMx mode it is important to provide 8 or more channels of
PPM signal from your receiver. Set up 10channels PPM on your Taranis or 9XR and it will probably work with other
receivers without rebinding.
As an example following combination was tested and worked together:
R615x bound in “DSMx 7 and less CH mode”
Old Orange R620 bound in “Auto mode”;
AR8000 bound in “8 and more DSMx mode”
Old R615 DSM2 bound in “DSM2 7 and less mode”
All those receivers worked after without rebinding by changing working mode on Tx module and channel number in
PPM output of the radio when needed.
Unfortunately due to big variety of receivers, modes their support and the fact that some receivers don`t implement
the functionality of the mode completely or exchange incorrect information during binding it is impossible to guarantee
the compatibility of all receivers working without rebind. You will have to experiment with your receivers to see which
ones can work together.
A little hint:
All new TM orange receivers (R620x-R1220x) act as 12 channel receivers so you will have to set number of
channels PPM to 10 in Taranis or 9XR to make them working with others. They are all compatible to each
other
Receivers Orange R615x, R410x, R415x, R616xn, Spektrum AR6210, AR6210 , Orange DSMx 3D
stabilizers are compatible to each other.
