■The R7106SB has two antennas. In order to maximize signal reception
and promote safe modeling Futaba has adopted a diversity antenna system.
This allows the receiver to obtain RF signals on both antennas and fly
problem-free.

Thank you for purchasing a Futaba R7106SB FASSTest-2.4GHz compatible receiver. The R7106SB receiver features bi-directional communication
with a FASSTest Futaba transmitter using the S.BUS2 port. Using the S.BUS2 port an impressive array of telemetry sensors may be utilized. It also
includes both standard PWM output ports (1-6ch) and S.BUS output ports. The R7106SB can also be switched to the FASST(Multi-ch/7-ch) System.

ChannelModes
The R7106SB is capable of changing its channel allocations as
described in the table below. This is especially important when using
the receiver in a dual receiver mode. See your transmitter operation
manual for complete details on operating in the dual receiver mode.
1Turn on the receiver. [Transmitter is always OFF]
2Press and hold the Mode/Link button for 5 seconds to 10
seconds.
3When the LED of the receiver changes from blinking red to
blinking red with green, Mode/Link button is released.
4The LED should now blink red two times in the patterns
described in the chart below.
5Each press of the Mode/Link button advances the receiver to
the next mode.
6When you reach the mode that you wish to operate in, press
and hold the Mode/Link button for more than 2 seconds.
When LED blinks in green with red, it is the completion of a
mode change, Mode/Link button is released.
7Please cycle the receiver power off and back on again after
changing the Channel mode.

1Turn on the receiver. [Transmitter is always OFF]
2Press and hold the Link/Mode button for more than 10
seconds.
3When the LED begins to blink green the button may be
released.
4The LED should now be blinking green in one of the patterns
described by the chart below.
( Default : FASSTest )
5Each press of the Mode/Link button advances the receiver to
the next system.
6When you reach the system that you wish to operate in, press
and hold the Mode/Link button for more than 2 seconds.
When the LED blinks green and red, the system change is
complete. Release the Mode/Link button.
7Please cycle the receiver power off and back on again after
changing the system.
Default
FASSTest is a bidirectional communication system between the
R7106SB receiver and FASSTest capable transmitters. Multiple
optional telemetry sensors may be connected to the S.BUS2 on the
receiver and that data is in turn displayed on the transmitter.
Link to the transmitter : FASSTest
1Bring the transmitter and the receiver close to each other,
within 20 inches (half meter).
2Turn on the transmitter. Place the transmitter into the receiver
linking mode.
3Turn on the receiver.
4The receiver will wait for the linking process to begin for 2
seconds. Following that it will return to the normal operation
mode.
5When the LED of the receiver changes from blinking red to
solid green, linking is complete.
(A link waiting state is ended in 1 second.)
• Refer to the transmitter's operation manual for complete details on how
to place the transmitter into the linking mode.
• If there are many FASSTest systems turned on in close proximity, your
receiver might have difficulty establishing a link to your transmitter.
This is a rare occurrence. However, should another FASSTest
transmitter/receiver be linking at the same time, your receiver could link
to the wrong transmitter. This is very dangerous if not noticed. To avoid
the problem, we strongly recommend that you double check whether
your receiver is really under control by your transmitter.
• If the System Type of the transmitter is changed, the receiver will need
to be re-linked to the transmitter.
Link to the TMA-1 Telemetry Adapter
1R7106SB has to be FASSTest.
2First, a transmitter and a receiver are linked.
3Transmitter is turned off.
4Press and hold the Mode/Link button of R7106SB for 15 seconds.
5After the R7106SB LED lights in this sequence, Red Blink -- Red with Green
Blink -- Green Blink -- Red Blink, release the Mode/Link button.
6When in link mode with the R7106SB, the TMA-1 LED blinks green along with
the red LED of the receiver.
7Push the TMA-1 link button as long as necessary for its LED to blink.
8Completion of a link will change LED of TMA-1 green from red only for a
moment.
9Please cycle the receiver power.
S.BUS2
S.BUS2 extends S.BUS and supports bidirectional communication.
Sensors are connected to the S.BUS2 port.
Link to the transmitter : FASST
1Bring the transmitter and the receiver close to each other,
within 20 inches (half meter).
2Turn on the transmitter and receiver.
3Link operation is performed by the Link/Mode switch.
• When using TM-8 module, it's possible to set F/S position (only 3CH).

R7106SB also can use the FASST-Multi/7ch mode. The FASST mode does
not support the telemetry functions. The FASST system has a normal mode and
a high-speed mode. However, in the High-speed mode, analog servos cannot be
used.
