The large combined speed and direction knob is in the middle.
Top left is the ON –OFF switch with LED. Top right is the Bind/Ch # 5 pushbutton which is also used for a sound trigger.
1. “BINDING”.
The 1st procedure is to “BIND” the Receiver (Rx) to the Transmitter (Tx). Other Tx’s & Rx’s should be OFF.
“BINDING” is accomplished by following a few simple steps below.
When binding we recommend you KEEP THE TX HANDPIECE AT LEAST ONE METRE FROM THE Rx.
HOW TO “BIND” USING AN RCS AB-EM or # AB-TM Auto Bind receiver. ESC plugs into Ch # 1. (Pin # 2)
The following steps should be followed, to bind the Rx to your transmitter:
1) Tx must be OFF. Then provide power to the Rx unit. After 8 seconds Rx LED flashes quickly.
2) Ensure distance separation of 1 - 2 metres from receiver.
3) Then press & hold Bind button & turn the Tx ON. Rx LED’s will go out. Tx will flash slowly.
4) After 10-12 seconds the Rx will come back on for two flashes & then go solid on after 5 seconds.
5) Solid Rx LED light ON means binding is completed.
6) Turn Rx OFF then Back ON again.
ON OFF SWITCH PRESS & HOLD BIND THEN TURN Tx ON.
If you are using the adjustable # Rx107-EM & # Rx107-TM Auto Bind Rx, please refer to the instructions
supplied with them, for how to bind.
The EVO-SIMPLEX(+) Tx handpiece battery will eventually go flat if left switched on. The operating
program may be disrupted. In which case, the Ch # 1 centering on the EVO system Tx will need to be
reset;
HOW TO CENTER CH # 1 ON THE Tx HANDPIECES.
1.) Speed & Direction control is on the Ch # 1 knob. Set knob at the centre.
2.) Press the ON –OFF button to turn the EVO ON. LED light will come ON.
3.) Within 60 seconds, press and hold the bind button for 20 seconds.
4.) After 20 seconds the EVO ON –OFF LED light will go off.
5.) Release Bind button.
6.) LED light will come back ON. Centre reset is complete.
7.) Return knobs to operating settings.
ALWAYS COMPLETE THE ABOVE PROCEDURE WHEN REPLACING THE 9 VOLT BATTERY.

USING THE # EVO-SIMPLEX Tx’s WITH A “CENTRE OFF” ESC.
The # EVO SIMPLEX Tx handpieces should only be used with CENTRE OFF ESC’s such as the COBRA-260.
Before you switch the system on, make sure the knob is in neutral. i.e. at the centre “click”.
NEUTRAL OFF POSITION OF THE
# EVO-SIMPLEX Tx’s.
SET THE FORWARDS DIRECTION
& INCREASE SPEED CONTROL.
SET THE REVERSE DIRECTION
& INCREASE SPEED CONTROL.
CENTRE OFF CONTROL.
FORWARDS - SPEEDING UP.
To select forwards direction, twist the knob from neutral slowly clockwise (CW) to the right.
SLOWING DOWN. Turn the knob back to the left (CCW) to set desired speed.
STOPPING.Completely stop the loco by bringing the knob back to neutral.
Once stopped wait one second before changing direction.
REVERSE - SPEEDING UP.
To select reverse direction, twist the knob slowly to the left (CCW).
SLOWING DOWN. Turn the knob back to the right (CW) to set desired speed.
STOPPING. Completely stop the loco by bringing the knob back to neutral.
SHUTTING DOWN. When you have finished operating, turn off the loco(s) before the TX.
# EVO-SIMPLEX. Directional Constant brightness lighting.
Our 100 Watt # COBRA-260 ESC’s have directional constant lights that suits bulbs as well as LED’s.
If the # EVO-SIMPLEX is being used with other ESC’s that do not have lighting outputs, use a # Rx107-xx Rx or our plug
in, in-Line lighting module # MRW-SSLS.
# EVO-SIMPLEX Sound Trigger. The # MRW-SSSS is available for use with Ch # 5. See page # 1.
# EVO-SIMPLEX+ Sound Triggers. The # MRW-SSTS is available for use with Ch’s # 2, # 4 & # 5. See below.
If the loco runs backwards, we reverse the motor wiring to correct the direction and maintain the standard.
If the directional lights are incorrect, swap over the wiring to them so they match the loco speed and direction.
Cruise Control. Depending on the Rx it is quite OK to turn the TX handpiece OFF and allow the loco to continue cruising
at the set speed until the Tx handpiece is turned on again.
Be aware that when turning the Tx handpiece back ON, relinking can take a few seconds.
