These operating instructions are part of this product. They contains important notes to the operation and
handling. Please take this into consideration when you pass on the product to third parties. Neglect of
the operating instructions and the safety instructions lead to expiring the warranty.
Graupner constantly work on the advancement of all remote control systems; changes of the scope of deli-
very in form, technology and equipment we must reserve ourselves therefore. Please have understanding
for the fact that from data and illustrations of this operating instructions no requirements can be derived.
Please keep these instructions for further reference!
1. GENERAL NOTE
When switching on or adjusting the radio control system it is essential to keep the transmitter aerial at
least 15 cm away from the receiver aerials at all times. If the transmitter aerial is too close to the receiver
aerials, the receiver will be overloaded, causing the red LED on the receiver to light up. The transmitter
responds by emitting a beep once every second; the red LED also goes out. The radio control system
is now in Fail-Safe mode.
If this should occur, simply increase the distance between the aerials until the audible warning signal
ceases, and the red LED on the transmitter lights up again; at the same time the red LED on the receiver
should go out.
2. FUNCTIONS
2.1. Binding
When you wish to use the Graupner HoTT 2.4 GHz receiver with a particular transmitter, the fi rst step
must always be to “bind” the unit to “its” Graupner HoTT 2.4 GHz RF module (transmitter). This “binding”
procedure only needs to be carried out once for each combination of receiver and RF module. The units
supplied in the set are already bound to each other at the factory, i.e. the binding procedure described in
the following section only needs to be carried out when you wish to use an additional receiver. However,
it can also be repeated at any time if required, e.g. after changing transmitters. When binding is required,
this is the procedure:
• Switch the transmitter and receiver on.
• Locate the BIND / RANGE button on the back of the transmitter, and hold it pressed in while you
press and hold the SET button on the receiver. Both LEDs on the back of the transmitter now glow
constantly, and the red LED on the receiver fl ashes.
• Under normal circumstances the fl ashing red LED on the receiver will cease to fl ash and switch to
a constant green within about ten seconds. This indicates that the binding process is complete. You
can now release both buttons, and your transmitter / receiver combination is ready for use.
• However, if the red LED on the receiver continues to fl ash for longer than ten seconds, then the
binding process has failed. If this should occur, repeat the whole procedure.
2.1.1.Binding“ multiple receivers in one model
If required, it is also possible to bind multiple receivers to the transmitter for a particular model. The fi rst
step is to bind each receiver individually using the procedure already described.
When the system is in use, the receiver which was bound last is the Master receiver. Any telemetry sen-
sors installed in the model must be connected to this unit, as only the Master receiver transmits sensor
data using the downlink channel. The second and all further receivers operate in parallel with the Master
receiver but in Slave mode, with the downlink channel switched off.
The control functions can also be distributed amongst multiple receivers; this is carried out using the
Channel Mapping function of the SMART-BOX (Order No. 33700). In the same way it is possible to as-
sign one control function to multiple receiver outputs; a typical example would be the use of two servos
for each aileron instead of only one, etc.
