SETTINGUP OPERATION
Connect RX2SIM to your RC receiver and simulator interface according to the appli-
cable picture. Then plug RX2SIM to an available USB port of your computer.
Please do not press the button on RX2SIM at this time in order to get into the
operational mode.
2.1 CHOOSE OPERATING MODE
By pressing the button shortly, you can change the operating mode. RX2SIM will
show the preselected operation mode by ashing mode LED in the color of the new
mode. After a few seconds without further button hits, the preselected mode will
become active automatically and the mode LED stops ashing. In delivery conditi-
on, the following operating modes can be selected:
Green: Simulator-Dongle:
The receiver’s input is available at the PPM output jack. Any simulator interface or
USB-Dongle that is connected to RX2SIM will be connected through RX2SIM with
the computer’s USB port.
Purple: Game Controller
In this mode, RX2SIM operates as a USB game controller. The various RC servo chan-
nels are mapped to dierent axes and buttons of the game controller. In addition,
the controls are also available at the PPM output jack. Any device connected to RX-
2SIM’s dongle port won’t be powered or connected to the computer.
Orange: USB2SYS
This operation mode connects the computer to the SYS-port of a connected device.
In this mode, PPM output and RX-input ports are unavailable.
2.2 SELECT CONNECTED RECEIVER TYPE
(Applicable for operating modes Simulator-Dongle and Game Controller)
In order to decode the control signals from the connected receiver, RX2SIM has to
be set to the appropriate receiver type.
1. PPM (serial signal)
2. SRXL
3. 3. S.Bus / S.Bus2
Green = Simulator-Dongle
(USB looped through)
Purple = Game Controller
(RX2SIM as USB Joystick)
Orange = USB2SYS
(Connection RC->SYS Port)
IMPORTANT: Press and hold RX2SIM’s button for a long period (> 5 seconds), until
the appropriate LED of your receiver type lights up or ashes, then release the button.
- The LED will light up continuously if RX2SIM detects proper signals from the receiver.
- The LED ashes if there is no valid RX signal detected, which, for instance, might be
caused by selecting a wrong receiver type, transmitter turned o or improper ope-
ration of the receiver itself.
3 CONFIGURATIONS
3.1 BINDING SPEKTRUM SATELLITES
Initially, disconnect the satellite from RX2SIM, connect RX2SIM with the computer
and set Receiver Type to „Spektrum”(see section 2.2). Now connect the satellite to
RX2SIM. Please plug in the connector quickly, so that all contacts connect nearly at
the same time. This should place the satellite into bind mode, shown by a ashing
LED on the satellite. If this does not work immediately, repeat plugging the satellite’s
cable out and in again for another trial.
3.2 RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULTS
In order to reset RX2SIM to factory defaults, press and hold the button while
connecting it to the computer then release the button. Two blue LEDs will light up.
Now press and hold the button again, until the red ashing LED turns into conti-
nuous light. Release the button now to restore RX2SIM’s factory defaults.
3.3 FIRMWARE UPDATE/INSTALLATION OF ADDITIONAL FUCNTIONS
The rmware of RX2SIM can be upgraded or updated to newer releases by using an
update tool running on the computer. In order to enable rmware update, press
and hold the button while connecting RX2SIM to the computer then release the
button. Two blue LEDs will light up. Now start the update tool on the computer. Af-
ter the update nished successfully, RX2SIM will restart in the new or updated ope-
rating mode.
3.4 ENABLE OR DISABLE OPERATING MODES
You may disable unused operating modes, so you don’t have to skip them when
switching between operating modes. Likewise, disabled modes can be enabled again.
Press and hold the button while connecting RX2SIM to the computer. Hold the but-
ton pressed until the Mode LED shows the color of the mode you which to enable or
disable. To enable the mode release the button while the blue LEDs are on. To disa-
ble the mode release the button while the blue LEDs are o.
