USB-Output (Computer):
This connects RX2SIM to the computer and also supplies power to RX2SIM. Connect
RX2SIM either by plugging it into a USB socket of the PC directly or by using a stan-
dard type A USB extension cable. If the connection is made through a USB hub, the
hub should provide a separate power supply in order to avoid current overload of
the PC's USB port in case more than one USB device is active at the same time.
Receiver:
RX2SIM supports various types of RC receivers. Either you connect a receiver with up
to eight separate servo channels or the functions are transmitted by one single line
using a special Single-Line protocol. Here RX2SIM supports Futaba® S.Bus/S.Bus2,
SRXL, PPM-serial signal (SPPM) or you can also connect one single Spektrum®
DSM2/DSMX remote satellite or a JR® RJ01 DMSS satellite.
USB -
Output
In general the receiver does not need a separate power supply as RX2SIM supplies 5V
power to the receiver. Other devices (like servos) must not be connected to the
receiver in order to avoid excessive current consumption! To prevent damage to
RX2SIM or to the USB port the output current is limited to 100mA at port [- + 1]. If
your receiver requires higher current or voltage you must power it separately. In this
case the (+) pole (red wire) between receiver and RX2SIM must be cut or
unplugged to prevent from damaging the USB port due to overvoltage.
PPM-Output:
This connector outputs the control signals
to your simulator interface. The functionality
matches the trainer port of your RC transmitter.
USB-Input (Dongle):
Here you can connect the USB interface or dongle of your simulator software. In
operating mode "Simulator-Dongle", RX2SIM connects this port with the computer's
USB port. In operating mode "Game Controller", this port is not active. If needed,
connect your simulator dongle to another USB port of your computer.
2.1 CONNECTING A RECEIVER WITH SEPARATE SERVO OUTPUT CHANNELS
three-wire patch cable. This connection also supplies voltage for the receiver.
Connect channels 2 to 8 using the 7-wire patch cable. On these servo plugs only the
signal line (orange wire) is connected.
Please refer to your receiver's manual or the imprint on its case to determine which
pin is the impulse line on each servo connector.
