that they appear on the radio. An explanation of the
use and purpose of each feature is provided, followed
by an illustration of its LCD display. In the front of this
Section 1: Using This Manual
XP7202 Transmitter
The XP7202 synthesized transmitter allows onscreen
channel selection of channels 15 through channel 60 via
the computer. The system prevents accidental turn-ons
by requiring acknowledgement of the selected channel
before a signal is transmitted. The system incorporates a
hi-resolution dot matrix LCD display offering sophisticated
graphics that are easy to read and understand. Two-model
type programming offers airplane and helicopter pilots
programming options that will meet the most demanding
modelers’ needs. Control sticks are adjustable for spring
tension and length. Twenty-model memory storage
capacity allows programming for up to twenty separate
helicopters or airplanes or you can program more than one
setup for a single aircraft. Two versions of the transmitter
are available: Airplane and Helicopter. The switch
positions are optimized for each model type, however, the
programming is identical in both versions.
R790 ScanSelect PCM Receiver
The R790 ScanSelect™ is a high-performance synthesized,
single-conversion receiver with 10KHz super narrow band
ABC&W circuitry.
The ScanSelect synthesized frequency selections system

NOTE: It is imperative that you fully charge both the
transmitter and the receiver battery packs prior to
each flying session. To do so, using the included wall
charger, leave the charger and batteries connected
overnight (16 hours). The first charge should be
approximately 20–24 hours in order to fully charge
both battery packs to peak capacity.

The charger supplied with this system is designed
to recharge your batteries at a rate of 110mA for the
transmitter and 110mA for the receiver battery pack.
Transmitter Polarity
The center pin on all JR®transmitters is negative.
Therefore, the center pin on all JR chargers is negative, not
positive. This is different from many other manufacturers’
chargers and radio systems. Beware of improper
connections based on “color coded” wire leads, as they
may not apply in this instance. You must make sure that
the center pin of your JR transmitter is always connected
to the negative voltage for correct polarity hookup.
Charger
The pilot lamps should always be ON during the charging
operation. If they’re not, check to make sure that both the
transmitter and receiver are switched OFF. Do not use
this charger for equipment other than JR. The charging
plug polarity may not be the same and equipment damage
can result. During the charging operation, the charger’s
temperature is slightly elevated. This is normal.

1. Leave the transmitter power switch in the OFF position.
The transmitter will not transmit radio frequency (RF) in
this position.
2. Plug the DSC cord (optional JRPA132) into the DSC
port in the rear of the transmitter.
3. The encoder section of the transmitter will now be
operational and the LCD display will be lit.
4. Plug the other end of the DSC cord into the receiver
charge receptacle. Turn the switch harness to the ON
position.
NOTE: The DSC function will only operate with the
JRPA001 Deluxe Switch Harness, or the JRPA004
Charge Switch. When you install the charging jack,
be sure to hook the charging jack receptacle securely
into the switch harness charge cord.
Why you should use the DSC function:
1. The DSC function allows you to make adjustments
to your model without transmitting any radio signals.
Therefore, if another pilot is flying on the same
frequency, you can adjust your model’s radio setting
and not interfere with the other pilot’s aircraft.

2. The DSC enables you to operate the control surfaces
of your airplanes without drawing the fully operational
200mAh from your transmitter battery pack. Instead,
you will only draw 70mA when using the DSC function.
Note: Under no circumstances should you attempt to
fly your airplane with the DSC cord plugged in.

Using the Synthesized Channel Selection
The XP7202 allows the selection of channels 15 through
60 via the onscreen programming. When the transmitter
is first turned on, the screen will display “WARNING!” and
the current channel and frequency used will be displayed.
At this time no signal is being transmitted. If you wish
to transmit on this frequency, press the clear key and the
transmitter will begin transmitting on the selected channel
displayed and the screen will display the main menu.
• Enter the system set up mode by pressing
and holding the Down and Select keys
simultaneously while turning on the power switch.
• Press the UP or Down key until SYNTHESIZED
CH appears on screen as shown.
• Press the IncreaSe or DecreaSe key to select
the desired channel.
• Press the Down and Select key to exit the

menu screen.
The XP7202 can transmit in either Pulse Code Modulation
(S-PCM and Z-PCM) or in Pulse Position Modulation
(PPM, commonly referred to as FM). Be certain to observe
the following guideline: Do not operate your transmitter
when another transmitter is using the same frequency,
regardless of whether the second transmitter is PCM, PPM
(FM) or AM. You can never operate two transmitters
on the same frequency simultaneously without
causing interference to both receivers. See Page
40 (aircraft) or Page 77 (helicopter) for more details about
selecting the modulation type.

Advanced Digital Trims
The XP7202 employs digital trim levers on aileron,
elevator, throttle, and rudder. (Hover pitch and hover
throttle for helicopters). The ADT (Advanced Digital Trim)
feature is designed to automatically store the selected
trim values for each model. When a different model is
selected, the previously stored trim positions for the
selected model are automatically recalled. When using
the helicopter program each flight mode has its own trim
that is automatically recalled each time that flight mode is
entered.
Visual trim positions are displayed on the main screen.
The trims also feature dual speed scrolling. Holding the

14 XP7202 Instruction Manual
Installation Requirements
It is extremely important that your radio system be
correctly installed in your model. Here are a few
suggestions for installing your JR® equipment:
1. Wrap the receiver in protective foam rubber that is
no less than 3/8-inch thick. Secure the foam to the
receiver with #64 rubber bands. This protects the
receiver from shock in the event of a crash or a very
hard landing.
2. Mount the receiver antenna firmly to the airplane
to ensure that it will not become entangled in the
propeller or control surfaces.
3. The servos should be mounted using rubber grommets
and brass bushings to isolate them from vibration. Do
not over-tighten the mounting screws; this will negate
the vibration absorption effect of the rubber grommets.
The diagram below will assist you in properly mounting
your servo. The brass bushings are pushed from the
bottom up in the rubber grommets. When the servo
screw is tightened securely, it provides the proper
security, as well as the proper vibration isolation, for
your servo.
4. The servos must be able to move freely over their entire
range of travel. Make sure that the control linkages do
not bind or impede the movement of any of the servos.
5. Mount all switches away from the engine exhaust and
away from any high vibration areas. Make sure each
switch operates freely and is able to operate over its
full travel.
trim lever for an extended time will cause the trim rate of change to increase.
