So its unnecessary to rebind when you received the new RC8X. Turn on the RC8X and the R8FG, the signal tower will show on the top of the screen as the picture below, it means the transmitter and receiver have get ready to connect the ESC, servo, motor, and other equipment that you are prepared for your car or boat. But if you buy a new R8FG or another receiver for your RC8X, rebind is necessary. Make sure the transmitter and the receiver have bind success before you are going to operate the transmitter, each receiver has an individual ID code and must bind with transmitter before using. When the binding is done, the ID code will be stored in the transmitter and theres no need to rebind. Binding steps:
12 RadioLink Electronic Limited www.radiolink.com Put the transmitter and the receiver close to each other
(about 50 centimeters). Turn on both the transmitter and the receiver, and then the LED of R8FG will start flashing slowly. There is a black binding button (ID SET) on the side of receiver. Press the button for more than 1 second and release, the LED will flash quickly, indicate binding process is ongoing. When the LED stops flashing and is always on, binding is complete and there will be a signal tower shown on top of the LCD screen of the transmitter. If not succeed, the LED will keep flashing slowly to notify, repeat the above steps. Note: NO gyro by default as factory setting. Since integrated gyro in R8FG will self-check, it is very important to remain R8FG still when powering it on. green LED (always on) indicates normal working mode while green+red LEDs (always on) indicate gyro working mode. When RED is off means NO gyro. If binding is not successful, the green LED will keep flashing to notify. 1.3.3 Receiver Connection 1.3.3.1 Connect Cable The connection wire for receiver is shown in the picture above. The common ones are white/red/black wire or yellow/red/brown wire. The two types of servo cables both are the light-colored wire as the signal wire, the dark-colored wire as the ground wire, and the middle is 5V power supply, and the three wires correspond to Note:
. 1 2 Radiolink receivers are all designed with anti-polarity connect protection. When the servo cable is plugged reversely, the receiver will not work. The receiver operating voltage is 3V-12V. When the receiver uses a separate battery for independent power supply, the receiver will not be damaged if the battery polarity is reversed, but if the servo is connected at this time, it will cause damage to the servo. 13 RadioLink Electronic Limited www.radiolink.com 1.3.3.2 How to Connect R8FG Correctly for Telemetry R8FG supports telemetry of model battery voltage, receiver voltage and RSSI. The model voltage will display by connecting the wire to the ESC, battery, and Telemetry port of receiver R8FG. Telemetry of maximum 6S battery supported. Model battery voltage telemetry can be easily achieved by connecting the male end of the battery wire to ESC while the female end to the battery and the wire with a JST head connects Telemetry (+-) of R8FG as below picture shown. No extra module is needed. Once connect with success, the returned model voltage will be displayed on the interface of returned flight information. Note Battery connected to Telemetry port is only for 2S-6S battery voltage telemetry, R8FG should be powered supplied by connecting to the CH2 pins on right. Attention: Reverse polarity protection circuit design for all 8 channels of R8FG ensures vital components are protected from a reverse polarity connection. But, the JST connector which packed with R8FG for connect to battery cannot reverse polarity connect, or it will lead to the wrong voltage value telemetry.
