Binding is the process of teaching the receiver the specific code of the transmitter so it will only connect to that specific transmitter. When new out of the package, the AR8020T will automatically go into bind mode the first time it is powered on. - Page 7 • All other channels have no output until the receiver has linked to the transmitter. Forward Programming Verify your transmitter is updated your transmitter to the latest Spektrum AirWare™ software to take advantage of Forward Programming.

If your system displays a hold taking place, diagnose the cause and resolve the issue before flying again. It is normal to see a hold logged if you power OFF your transmitter and back ON. IMPORTANT: The Spektrum Flight Log (SPM9540) is not compatible with the AR8020T receiver. -
Page 10: Range Testing
Range Testing Before each flying session, and especially with a new model, it’s important to perform a range check. All Spektrum aircraft transmitters incorporate a range testing system, which reduces the output power to allow a range check. 1. With the model resting on the ground, stand approximately 100 feet (30 meters) away from the model. - Page 11 Telemetry The AR8020T features full range telemetry and will provide receiver battery voltage, flight log data, and vario and altitude data without any additional sensors. The altitude and vertical speed (variometer) sensor (SPMA9589) functions are already integrated in the SPMAR8020T. Additional telemetry devices such as voltage sensors can be connected to the volt port, and XBus telemetry sensors can be connected through the XBus connector.
