RCS Rx65 User manual

Rx65 - Programming v610
PRODUCT: Rx65
1. PROGRAMMING APPROACH:
Settings in the Rx can be changed using a standard Tx or a special Programa device (Prog1 or Prog3). All use
the structure in the table below. One output or feature (ie: one row in the table) is programmed at a time. The
first two columns usually select the output and the other three change its characteristics. [KEYWORDS]
provide links to detailed descriptions of each feature. The 'Tx' column is for 'Tx Change' mode.
Options are organised into menus usually relating to a type of output.
Level 1 and 2 usually select the output number (eg: 2-flash for 'P' then 4-flash for 'P4').
You select a row in the table above and make up to 5 choices, one for each level.
3. INVOKING PROGRAMMING WITH:
TX20 TX-2s TX-4s
1. Switch TX ON. 2. Press and hold F1 & F2.
3. Switch RX ON wait for fast flicker. 4. Release F1 & F2.
Make choices:
6. The led flashes the setting for the first 'Level' (eg: 1-flash = Motor output 'H').

Say 'yes' to every item to just see what is currently set.
Changing 'P2' from Ch4 to Ch5.
