Compatibility
Smart Port (S. Port) is a signal wire full duplex digital transmission interface developed by FrSky Electronic Co., Ltd. All
products enabled with Smart Port (including XJT module, RX8R 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.
Features
• Long range, low latency and high precision RC system
• Telemetry (25mW) /No Telemetry (500mW) mode
• Smart Port enabled and support telemetry data transmission
Binding Procedure
Binding is the process of uniquely associating a receiver to a transmitter RF module. A transmitter external RF module
can be bound to multiple receivers (not to be used simultaneously). A receiver can only be bound to one RF module.
A: In R9M mode
1. Put the transmitter RF module into binding mode

1.1 For Taranis X9D/X9D Plus/X9E and Taranis Q X7/X7S, turn on the transmitter, go to the MENU – MODEL SETUP
– PAGE 2, choose External RF/Mode R9M/LBT (EU), and select BIND (OpenTX2.2.1 and its improved versions are
strongly recommended).
1.2 For Horus X12S/X10/X10S, turn on the transmitter, go to the RF SYSTEM, choose External RF (ON), and select
BIND under STATE.
2. Connect the battery to the receiver while holding the Bind button on the receiver. The RED LED on the receiver
will flash, indicating the binding process is completed.
3. Reboot the receiver and switch the RF module back to the normal mode. The flashing of the GREEN LED on the
receiver indicates the receiver is receiving commands from the transmitter.
Status
B:In PPM mode
1. Select No Telemetry or Telemetry mode, then power on R9M while holding its F/S button, Green LED will be on
Normal and Red LED will be flashing.
2. Connect the battery to the receiver while holding its Bind button. The Red LED on it will flash, indicating the binding
process in completed.
3. Reboot the R9M and the receiver. The flashing of the GREEN LED on the receiver indicates it is receiving commands
from the transmitter.
Note: After binding procedure is completed, resupply the power and check if the receiver is truly
communicating with the transmitter.
How to switch Telemetry (25mW) /No Telemetry (500mW) mode
-- For Taranis X9D/X9D Plus and Taranis Q X7/X7S turn on the radio, go to the MENU-MODEL SETUP-PAGE2,
Turn off Internal RF, choose External RF MODE R9M/LBT (EU) and select the BIND to set the mode.
-- For Horus X12S/X10/ X10S, turn on the transmitter. go to the RF SYSTEM, choose External RF and R9M, then
select with Tele or no Tele.
-- For PPM mode: switch the mode through switch1&2 ahead of binding,Press F/S button, blink times of RED&
GREEN LED indicating the corresponding power.
