● Antenna: 2* external 2.4G antenna
Specifications
The Twin Lite PRO is a powerful RF module which enables ETHOS capable radios to bind to the TW series
receivers and support the TW protocol’s dual 2.4G frequencies simultaneously on the same receiver. The TW
active-active protocol is different from the general active-standby redundancy solutions (where one receiver takes
over signal control only when the other is in Failsafe mode), with the TW protocol, dual 2.4G frequency bands are
active on the TW series module, and receiver at the same time.
The RF module has two 2.4G external antennas RF mounted to provide multi-directional and wider coverage for
transmitting signals compared to a single antenna design. Taking advantage of these features, the Twin system
can provide less latency and higher reliability at a faster data rate with confidence.
In addition to the TW mode, this module also supports ACCST D16, ACCESS, and ELRS 2.4G modes, this
means users can benefit from a wide range of compatible receiver options to choose and bind to when building
the RC model. The Twin Lite Pro module offers resilient RF power options up to 500mW, constructed with the
CNC machined metal module shell that helps aid heat dissipation, this system can ensure a stable long-range
control further around tens of kilometers under long working hours.

STEP5: Automatic Binding (Smart Match)
Move the cursor to RX1 [BIND], press it and
repower the receiver.
Click the RX to complete the binding after the
receiver window pops up, the system will confirm
"Bind succeed".
STEP3: Model ID Setting
The system assigns the receiver a number for the
receiver (Model ID) automatically while creating a
new model. ( The Model ID can be set from 00 to
63, with the default ID being 1.)
STEP1: Enable RF Module
Enter the RF system menu by the touch-screen or
use the navigation encoder key.
How to use the external RF module
Choose the External Module.
Then turn the state of External RF to On. Set the
binding mode for the external RF module
corresponding to the receiver (ACCST D16,
ACCESS, ELRS, TW MODE).
STEP6: RF Power Setting
TWIN Lite Pro can offer multiple RF power options
up to 500mW which can achieve a further
controlling range.
Open the Power menu bar and select the desired
power level according to usage.
STEP1:
Change the binding mode to [ELRS] under the
[TW Lite] module menu.
And press [Config] to enter the binding menu.
How to bind the receiver in the ELRS mode
STEP4: Registration
For TW Mode as an example, select the Set
[Register] for getting the radio into Registration
status in the RF System-External Module tool,
then press the F/S button on the receiver and
power the receiver on.
When the "RX Connected" page pops up, press
the [REGISTER] to complete the Registration
procedure and then power the receiver off.
(The system automatically assigns the receiver a
UID differently in the same model when you have
several receivers to bind at the same time.)
Reset: Registration procedure is not required
to repeat anymore after the receiver was
once registered even though the receiver is
deleted. Pressing the [Reset] and repower
the receiver can have the bound recovered.

There are 3 failsafe modes when the setting is enabled: No Pulse, Hold, and Custom mode.
●
No Pulses Mode: On loss of signal, the receiver produces no pulses on any channel. To use this mode, select
it in the menu and wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.
●
Hold Mode: The receiver continues to output the last positions before the signal was lost. To use this mode,
select it in the menu and wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.
●
Custom Mode: Pre-set to required positions on the lost signal. Move the cursor to the failsafe mode of the
channel and press Encoder, then choose the Custom mode. Move the cursor to the channel you want to set
failsafe On and press Encoder. Then rotate the Encoder to set your failsafe for each channel and short-press
the Encoder to finish the setting. Wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.
How to set Failsafe
Note:
●
If the failsafe is not set, the model will always work with the last working status before the signal is
lost. That could cause potential damage.
●
When the failsafe is disabled on the RF module side, the failsafe set on the receiver side will be
applied.
●
SBUS port does not support the failsafe setting in No Pulses mode and always outputs signal.
Please set "Hold" or "Custom" mode for the SBUS port.
STEP2:
Power the ELRS receiver on and off 3 times,
and the LED on the receiver will do a quick
flash twice that indicating the receiver is in the
binding mode.
Click the [Bind] and if the receiver LED keeps lit, it
means the receiver is bound successfully.
A pre-flight range check should be done before every flight, in case the signal loss is caused by the reflection of
the signal by the nearby metal fence or concrete, and the shading of the signal by buildings or trees during the
actual flight. Under normal circumstances, in Range Check mode, the RSSI at 150m is about 45-50.
1. Place the model at least 60 cm (2 feet) above the non-metal contaminated ground (such as on a wooden
bench). The receiving antenna should be in a vertical position.
2. Ener the ETHOS system, move to the "RF System", scroll the Encoder to select "RANGE" mode and press
Encoder. In range check mode, the effective distance will be decreased to 1/30.
