S ATELLITE I NSTALLATION
The R110 X incorporates diversity antennas, offering the security of dual path RF redundancy
By orienting these antennas in degree, each antenna is exposed to its own RF environment,
greatly improving path diversity (the ability for the receiver to see the signal in all conditions).
A NTENNA P OLARIZATION
For optimum RF link performance it’s important that the antennas are in an orientation
that allows for the best possible signal reception when the aircraft is in all possible attitudes and
positions. This is known as antenna polarization. If you use several satellites in your system or a receiver and one or more
satellites make sure that the antennas are oriented perpendicular to each other; typically vertical and horizontal and at different angles.
B INDING PROCEDURE
Currently not only receivers can initiate binding procedure for satellites. Flybarless(FBL) controllers and flight controls(FC) can also do it. If you
want to bind one or more satellites using FBL or FC please read manual on the FBL or FC you have.
Below is the binding procedure using satellite having satellite ports.
1. Connect satellite to the receiver using 3 wire cable. For Nuvoton series receivers if you use only one satellite, plug it to the port 1
2. Install a bind plug into BIND connector of your receiver.
3. Apply power to the receiver.

4. You will see the orange LED-s on the receiver and satellite(s) rapidly blinking. That means the receiver and satellites are in Bind
mode.
5. Follow the procedures of your specific transmitter to enter Bind Mode, the system will connect within a few seconds. Once connected,
the orange LED-s on the receiver and satellites will blink several times and go solid indicating the system is connected.Make sure that
all satellites have solid orange LED turned ON
6. Turn power OFF
C ONNECTOR / CABLE DESCRIPTION
1 (Orange) – 3.3VDC power.
2 (Black) –GND
3 (Gray) –Data output
R ED AND O RANGE LED INDICATIONS
During binding procedure:
Orange LED is blinking rapidly. After receiving binding signal from the transmitter blinks slowly for several seconds and then becomes solid if
connection is correct.
In normal operation
In presence of transmitter signal: Orange LED is solid. If the transmitter signal is lost Orange LED is OFF.
Red LED blinks number of holds(up to 256) – signal losses with more than 1 second when receiver had to trigger a fail safe event. The LED will
flash the number of holds then pause (e.g., flash, flash, flash, pause, flash, flash, flash, pause indicates three holds occurred since the receiver
was last turned on). Note that holds are reset to zero when the receiver is turned off. During the first flights of a new airplane, it’s recommended
to check the red LED hold indicator. If it’s flashing, it’s important to optimize the installation (move or reposition antennas) until no hold occurs.
On later flights, the LED Hold Indicator can be used to confirm RF link performance.
R ANGE T ESTING
Before each flying session and especially with a new model, it is important to perform a range check. Please use instructions of your transmitter
to perform a range test.
P ERFORMANCE
As for all radio frequency devices the performance of the satellite depends on many factors such as environment, transmitter power, antennas
used on transmitter, their orientation and even humidity. Therefore it is not guaranteed same performance in, for example, dense city
environment and in the rural areas with much less interference.
This product was extensively tested and achieved up to 1km range with transmitters with 22dBm output power. Please keep in mind that the
performance in your conditions and with your receiver can be different.
