Peter Marsh Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 The handbook for my DX7 states that during the binding procedure "press and hold the bind button on the back of the transmitter while turning on the power switch." That's fine, but turning on the transmitter takes you straight to Model 1 therefore affecting Model 1 settings. What is the procedure if I want to bind to Model 2 though? There must be a simple explanation. Can someone put me on track, please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Payne Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Hi Peter. The idea is to choose the model position on the transmitter first, turn it off and then start the binding process. That way, when the transmitter is switched on it is binding to the correct model slot. Does that help? Cheers, John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YakMad Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 You need to select the Model memory you want first (Model 2) then switch off and switch on while holding down the bind button, I always select the model memory I want then switch off and on again to ensure it is the right model then switch off and follow the binding procedure, it sounds like you have not successfully selected Model 2 first.

Peter Marsh Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 Thanks, I've done as you suggest but still comes up as Model 1. YakMad, do I switch on holding down the Down & Select buttons as well as bind button? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Payne Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Hi Peter, it sounds as though you are not correctly the model memory. I have just checked on my DX7 and the procedure it as follows:- hold down the Down and Select buttons and switch on, use the Increase/Decrease buttons to scroll to the memory memory you want, press down the Down and Select buttons together ( this sets the model memory chosen), switch off the transmitter. As Yakmad suggests, turn the transmitter back on to confirm the model chosen and then turn it off again. Turn on the receiver with the bind plug in place and the LED should flash, hold down the Bind button and switch on the transmitter. Wait for the receiver LED to stop flashing and go to a steady on. Switch off the receiver, then switch off the transmitter. Remove the bind plug. Switch on the transmitter and then the receiver and the radio should work. Cheers, John.

Peter Marsh Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 Thanks, John, that's brilliant. Looks like I was forgetting to actually set the memory chosen, so working well now. Thank goodness for this forum, and all you knowledgeable folks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
