4. Press and hold the bind button on the top of the transmitter while turning

on the power switch. Release the bind button once the LEDs on the front of

the transmitter flash and you hear a series of beeps. Within a few seconds

the system should connect. Once connected, the LED on the receiver will go

solid indicating the system is connected.

CAUTION: Continuing to hold the bind button during the binding

process prevents preset failsafe positions from being learned by the receiver.

5. Remove the bind plug from the BATT/BIND port on the receiver before you

power off the receiver. Store the plug in a convenient place.

Note: You must rebind when:

• Different failsafe positions are desired e.g,. when throttle or steering

reversing has been changed.

• Changing receiver types e.g., changing from a DSM receiver to a

DSM2 or Marine receiver.

• Binding the receiver to a different transmitter.

Note: Some Spektrum receivers like the SR3001 use a bind button rather

than a bind plug. The binding process is the same with this receiver.

However, instead of inserting the plug before powering up the receiver, press

and hold the bind button while powering up the receiver to enter bind mode.

FAILSAFE

Failsafe positions are also set during binding. In the unlikely event that the radio

link is lost during use, the receiver drives the servos to their preprogrammed

failsafe positions (normally full brakes and straight steering). If the receiver is

turned on prior to turning on the transmitter, the receiver enters failsafe mode,

driving the servos to their preset failsafe positions. When the transmitter is

turned on, normal control is resumed. Failsafe servo positions are set during

binding (see Binding on the previous page).

SERvO REvERSING

The DX2M features servo reversing on the throttle and steering channels. The

switches are located at the lower front of the transmitter. They are used to select

the servo direction of each channel. You can change the switch position to

normal (NOR) or reverse (REV).
