Re-Binding the Transmitter to the Receiver
Steps to Re-Bind
!
You do not need to remove any of the other plugs to re-bind.
Note
1. Ensure that the transmitter and vehicle are both turned off, and the transmitter is
several feet away from the receiver.
2.
3. With the Bind plug installed, turn on the vehicle. Notice a blinking Orange LED
within the receiver.
4. Now you are ready to turn on the transmitter. You should notice on the back of
the transmitter a similar blinking Orange LED under the translucent cover.
5.
6.
7.
8. The Bind process is complete. Your vehicle’s radio system should be ready for use.
For Bind-N-Drive version, see your transmitter manual for binding instructions.
Using the supplied Bind plug (which looks like a standard receiver plug with a wire
loop installed) insert or plug into the receiver slot labeled “BIND”. Looking down on
the receiver this slot would be below the LED and is the furthest from the LED, or
nearest to the corner of the receiver.
Both the receiver and transmitter blinking Orange LED will stop blinking and
become solid indicating they have “bound” themselves together.
Please turn off both the vehicle and transmitter to remove the Bind plug from the
receiver. Failing to remove the Bind plug will cause the transmitter to attempt to
rebind every time you turn on the vehicle and transmitter.
Turn on both the vehicle and transmitter to ensure operation. If the transmitter does
not control the vehicle, please repeat steps 1 to 6. Should this not correct the
problem please call Horizon Service/Repair for further assistance.
The Losi DSM radio system included in the Mini Sprint operates on 2.4 GHz, and provides 79 different channels
which are automatically selected when the transmitter and vehicle are turned on. The communication between the
transmitter and receiver starts in the few seconds after the transmitter and vehicle are both turned on. This is called
the “binding process”. The Losi DSM radio system will not interfere with previous technology radio systems that
operate on 27 MHz or 75 MHz frequencies and you will not receive any interference from them.
Although set at the factory, below are the steps required to re-bind your transmitter to the receiver should the need
arise. During the bind process there is a unique ID from the transmitter communicated to the receiver to ensure
trouble free radio operation.
