9.5.1. Transmitter aerial
Once installed, the C
OCKPIT
2.4 GHz aerial can be rotated to the side and tilted up-
wards. When using the transmitter, angle the aerial ap-
proximately at right-angles at the swivel joint, and tilt it
horizontally to left or right (see photo below).
Figure 9.5.1.:
Aerial in operating position; knurled nut
For applications where the model is not directly above
or below the transmitter (this applies in particular to
model cars and boats) the optimum transmitter aerial
position is pointing vertically upwards.
! Important:
Do not point the aerial straight at the model
Never point the aerial directly at the model. For tech-
nical reasons the transmitted signal is at its weakest in
a straight line extending straight out from the aerial.

First use
Before the transmitter and receiver will work together
they must "learn" each other's characteristics. This pro-
cedure is known as "binding".
Note: general information on the subject of binding,
and on fault-finding and correction as part of the bind-
ing procedure, can be found in the instructions supplied
with your MULTIPLEX M-LINK receiver.
Is the receiver already bound to the transmitter?
To check this, use this procedure:
1. Switch the transmitter on
the blue LED flashes
2. Switch the receiver on
the yellow LED glows constantly:
Binding required! (

Connection successful.
The system is ready for use.

Charging the transmitter battery
The C
SX M-LINK is supplied with a partly
OCKPIT
charged battery which must be fully charged before the
transmitter is used for the first time. Please see the
notes regarding the transmitter battery (

The binding procedure
! Note: secure the model !
When the binding procedure is completed successfully,
the system immediately starts working. This could
cause the motor to burst into life, so please secure the
model to avoid property damage or personal injury.
10.2.1. Prepare the transmitter
1. Switch the transmitter on with the 3-D digi-adjuster
pressed in, and then release the 3-D digi-adjuster.
The screen now displays the range check menu L-
RED or LO POW.
The blue LED glows constantly.
2. Turn the 3-D digi-adjuster to the right
reach the BIND menu.
Press the 3-D digi-adjuster briefly .
You will hear an audible trill, and the blue LED
starts flashing at a high rate.
10.2.2. Switch the receiver on
Switch the receiver on with the SET button
pressed in, and then release the button. The
yellow LED flashes at a high rate.
10.2.3. Successful binding
As soon as the transmitter and receiver have "found"
each other, the flashing rhythm on both units changes.
Receiver:
Transmitter:
! Note: when binding is complete, the transmitter
and receiver are ready for use immediately !
10.2.4. Binding not possible
If the transmitter and receiver continue to flash at a
high rate, binding is not possible.
Receiver:
Transmitter:
Remedy:
Move the transmitter and receiver closer together.
Transmitter output is greatly reduced for the binding
process. (decrease the distance to 50 cm or less.)
! Note: never attempt to carry out a binding pro-
cess with several transmitters simultaneously !
Ensure that no other MULTIPLEX transmitters are op-
erating in binding mode in the immediate vicinity (< 5
m), and that no other models have been prepared for
binding. Systems which are already successfully bound
have no influence on the process.
