Binding Receivers - GRAUPNER mx-16 HOTT Programming Manual

cess from virtually any menu position by simultaneously
touching the  and  buttons of the left-hand touch-
key - refers exclusively to the "control channels", i. e. the
outputs are NOT swapped over.

Use the arrow buttons  of the left or right-hand
touch-key to select the servo / output combination you
wish to change, then touch the central
right-hand touch-key. Now you can assign the desired
servo (S) to the selected output using the right-hand
arrow buttons, and confirm your choice with
alternatively touch the  or  buttons of the right-
hand touch-key (CLEAR) simultaneously to revert to the
default sequence.
Please note that any subsequent changes to servo
settings, such as servo travel, Dual Rate / Expo, mixers
etc., must be carried out according to the original
(default) receiver socket sequence.
Typical application:
In the helicopter program of the mx-16 HoTT the
outputs for one collective pitch servo and the throttle
servo have been interchanged compared to all earlier
GRAUPNER/JR mc-systems. The throttle servo is now
assigned to receiver output "6" and the collective pitch
servo to output "1". However, you may wish to retain the
earlier configuration.

It is also possible to distribute the control functions
amongst as many receivers as you wish, using the
channel-mapping function in the mx-16 HoTT's
integral Telemetry menu, or even to assign the same
SET button of the
control function to multiple receiver outputs. However,
we strongly recommend that you use only one of the two
options, as a combination will soon lead to confusion.

rx bind
Graupner|SJ HoTT receivers have to be "instructed" to
communicate exclusively with a particular model (i. e.
model memory) of a Graupner|SJ HoTT transmitter. This
process is known as "binding", and is only necessary
once for each new combination of receiver and model. It
can be repeated at any time.
Important note:
When carrying out the binding procedure, please
ensure that the transmitter aerial is always an
adequate distance from the receiver aerials: keeping
the aerials about 1 m apart is safe in this respect.
Otherwise you risk a failed connection to the down-
link channel, and consequent malfunctions.
"Binding" multiple receivers to one model
If necessary, it is possible to bind more than one re-

(Bound receiver)
ceiver to a single model. This is accomplished by initially
binding the receivers individually, as described in the
next section.
When operating the system, please note that only
the receiver which was bound last will establish a
telemetry link to the transmitter. For this reason all te-
lemetry sensors installed in the model must be connect-
ed to this receiver, since only the last bound receiver
is able to transmit their data via the down-link channel.
The second, and all other receivers, run in parallel to
the receiver last bound to the transmitter, but completely
independently of it; they operate in Slave mode with the
down-link channel switched off.
"Binding" transmitter and receiver
Use the arrow buttons  of the left or right-hand
touch-key to move to the "rx bind" line:

If you have not already done so, switch on the power
supply to your receiver now: the red LED on the receiver
flashes.
Press and hold the SET button on the receiver until,
after about three seconds, the red-flashing LED starts to
flash red / green; this will last for a further three seconds.
You can now release the SET button on the receiver.
The receiver is in Bind mode as long as the LED flashes
red / green.
Briefly touch the central SET button of the right-hand
