Low-voltage power-on guard prevents the receiver operating if battery
voltage is initially below 4.5 V. In use the receiver continues to work
without error down to a voltage of 3.6 V.

! Read the instructions before using the receiver
! Use only for the intended range of applications (
! Use a receiver battery of adequate capacity (
! Read and observe the installation notes (
! Carry out regular range checks (
! Keep to the correct sequence when switching on and off
First switch the transmitter ON, then switch the receiver ON.
First switch the receiver OFF, then switch the transmitter
OFF.
! Note: mixed operation
MULTIPLEX RX-SYNTH receivers can also be used with
transmitters which do not feature Synthesizer technology, i.e.
transmitters with conventional plug-in crystals. Synthesizer
technology simply provides a modern, convenient and ex-
tremely accurate method of generating a frequency, offering
very flexible RF channel selection. All MULTIPLEX RX-
SYNTH receivers work on the basis of the universal FM /
PPM transmission process, which is compatible across
makes. In principle, mixed operation with FM / PPM transmit-
ters made by other manufacturers is possible. However, we
cannot guarantee that such systems will work properly be-
cause the number of possible combinations is too great.

4. A
1) PPLICATION
The RX-6-SYNTH light receiver is a radio control receiver de-
signed exclusively for modelling applications. The unit must not
be used for other purposes, e.g. in industrial equipment or any
machine designed to carry humans.

NITIAL USE
5.1 Setting the RF channel
With the RX-6-SYNTH light receiver the RF channel is set using
an RF channel search. The receiver searches for the RF channel
generated by the most powerful transmitter. For this reason you
must ensure that your own transmitter, set to the RF channel you
wish to use, is located immediately adjacent to the model (re-
ceiver) when you initiate the channel search. Make sure that
other transmitters, if switched on, are at least 3 m away.
Sequence:
1. Switch the transmitter on
Set the transmitter to the RF channel you wish to use.
2. RF search
- Hold the "SET" button on the receiver pressed in
- Switch the receiver ON
- Release the "SET" button
⇒ The RF channel search starts, and the LED flashes:
LED Code 2
The RF channel search is concluded when the LED glows
constantly:
LED Code 1
3. Confirm the RF channel
Move the Channel 2 stick on the transmitter steadily to the
same end-point four times in sequence.
4.) ⇒ the LED should go OFF / ON in sequence with the stick
movement. This confirms that the receiver is locked on to the
correct RF channel.
The process is complete when the LED flashes the confir-
mation signal:
LED Code 4
4. Switch the receiver OFF, then ON again
Switch the receiver OFF, then ON again.
⇒ the receiver is ready for use, and will operate on the se-
lected RF channel. The LED flashes as follows:
LED Code 3
The set channel is stored permanently in the receiver until
such time as you initiate a new search.
! Note
The RF channel search generally takes about two seconds. If the
process takes substantially longer, this indicates that there is no
clear transmitter signal present. Check that your transmitter is
switched on, and is located immediately adjacent to the receiver,
then repeat the procedure from Step 1.
