E + SBUS Out Slave No Telemetry XBR supports the redundancy function for the master and slave receivers. The master receiver receives SBUS signal from the slave receiver. When the master receiver goes into failsafe, the output signal from the slave receiver will be used until the master receiver works again. Notes:
14 When both the master and slave receivers go into failsafe, the failsafe signal from the master receiver will be output;
2. The slave receiver should be in no telemetry mode. Smart Port (S. Port) is a signal wire full duplex digital transmission interface developed by FrSky Electronic Co. Ltd. All producis enabled with Smart Port (including XJT module, RXBR receiver, new hub-less sensors, new Smart Dashboard, etc), serial port user data and other user input/output devices can be connected without limitations for numbers or sequences at a high transmis~
sion speed.

A transmitter module can be bound to muttiple receivers (not to be used simultaneously). A receiver can only be bound to one transmitter module. Follow the steps below to finish the binding procedure. 1, Tum on the transmitter while holding the F/S button on the module (please refer to the module instruction manual for switch positions). Release the button. The RED LED on the XJT module will flash, indicating the transmitter is ready to bind to the receiver. 2s Connect the battery to the receiver while holding the F/S button on the receiver. The RED LED on the receiver will lash, indicating the binding process is completed, 3. Tum off both the transmitter and the receiver. 4. Tur on the transmitter and connect the battery. The GREEN LED on the receiver indicates the receiver is receiving commands from the transmitter. The receiver/transmitter module binding will not have to be repeated, unless one of the two Is replaced. Note: After binding procedure is completed, recycle the power and check ifthe receiver is really under control by inked transmitter. When combine two RX8R to become a 16CH receiver, you need to disable telemetry on either one of the two RXBR's. Refer to the two charts below for details.

Dig y CHI-CHE No Jumper Range Check A pre-fght range check should be done before each flying session. Reflections from nearby metal fences, concrete buildings or trees can cause loss of signal both during range check and during the flight. Follow the steps below to perform the range check. 1. Place the model at least 60cm (two feet) above non-metal contaminated ground (e.g. on a wooden bench). 2. The receiver antennas should be separated in the model, and do not touch the ground. 3, The module antenna should be in a vertical positon. 4, Tum on the transmitter and the receiver, press the F/S button on the XJT module for 4 seconds to enter range check mode, the RED LED willbe off, GREEN LED will flash rapidly. The effective distance will be decreased to 1/30 (at least 30m). 5. Walk away from the model while simultaneously operating the controls on the transmitter to confirm all controls normal operation. 6. Press the F/S button on the XJT module for 1~2 seconds to exit range check mode, RED LED will be back on, indicating normal operation is back. Failsafe Failsafe is a useful feature in which all controls move to a preset position whenever the control signal is lost for a period of time. RXBR supports failsafe function for all channels. Follow the steps below to set failsafe positions for each channel:
1. Bind the receiver first and tum on both the transmitter and the receiver, 2, Move the controls to the desired failsafe position for all channels;
3, Press briefly the F/S button on the receiver (less than 1 second). The Green LED will flash twice, indicating the failsafe position has been set in the receiver. To disable the failsafe function, re-bind the receiver. Failsafe is recommended to set when system is firstly used, or receiver has been re-bound. Follow steps below to set failsafe. Option-1. How to set failsafe to a user-determined state on lost signal 1) Bind the receiver to the transmitter module frst and turn on both the transmitter and the receiver;
2) Move the controls to desired failsafe position for all channels;
3) Press briefly the F/S button on the receiver and you are done. Option-2. How to set failsafe for no pulses on lost signal:
1) Tum off the transmitter, power on the receiver, and then press briefly the F/S button on the receiver. Note: If failsafe is not set, failsafe default will hold last position before signal is lost. In this case, there exists risk that your model will fly away or cause injury. For more details, please check the complete manual for RXBR from www frsky-tc.com - Download ~ Manual.
