If you wish, you can reset the servo curve once you return to the Servo Overview. If you accidentally ﬁnd yourself at the Reset

button, that is not a problem: simply select the Curve Editor again, and the curve will still be present there with the settings

you last selected.

NOTE

3.4 Binding a receiver

Select the Receiver button from the Main menu. As you will

now see, up to four receivers can be bound to the CORE

simultaneously.

It is even possible to use different types of receiver; for exam-

ple, one PBR-9D and one PBR-5S can be bound. All four

receivers are of “equal value”, i.e. there is no Master / Slave

assignment, and no restrictions in terms of telemetry. Teleme-

try sensors can be connected to all four receivers, all of which

send data to the CORE on an equal footing.

The receivers are identiﬁed by the four capital letters A to D.

The same letters appear in the telemetry data sent from the receivers, helping to differentiate between them.

3.4.1. Binding

There are two methods of binding receivers:

• Option 1

Connect a power supply to the receiver, and it will respond by ﬂashing green at high frequency for ten seconds. Press the Bind

button on your CORE transmitter, and the receiver now binds to it; the LED lights a continuous green.

If you do not press the Bind button within the ten-second period, the LED switches to ﬂashing slowly red – at this point the

receiver can no longer be bound to the transmitter. You can only re-start the process if you ﬁrst disconnect the power supply.

• Option 2

Press the Bind button on your CORE, then connect the receiver to a power supply. The LED switches to continuous green

once the receiver is bound.

Technical information: during the binding procedure the PowerBox CORE generates a random sequence from a total of more

than 32 million numbers; this is then used as the basis for calculating the hopping sequence and encoding the signals. The

likelihood that two identical codes could be generated is therefore very close to zero.

NOTE

3.4.2. Remove

The Remove button has an important function: if you wish to uninstall a receiver from a model, it is essential to remove that recei-

ver from the model memory beforehand using this button. If you simply uninstall the receiver without ﬁrst removing it at the trans-

mitter, then the other bound receivers will not work when you next switch the system on. This is an important safety feature, as it

ensures that all the bound receivers are working when you switch the system on, i.e. before you take off!
