How to bind futaba TM-7 to receiver??

[khpan2003]

Hi,
any1 could enlighten me on this Futaba 2.4G tx module and receiver..

Currently i try to bind the TM-7 to R617FS receiver for my 9C..

But the green led on the receiver is keep on blinking and no response to stick input..
Base on the manual.. it said that

Please refer to the table below for the LED status of the receiver's condition.
Green Red Status
Off Solid No signal reception
Solid Off Receiving signals
Blink Off Receiving signals but ID is unmatched
Alternate blink Unrecoverable failure (EEPROM, etc.)


Any 1 could enlighten me on how to get this TM-7 and R617FS receiver bind up to get the ID matched??

put tx to ppm.

then press the tiny button on the rx. Press and hold till the light blinking turns from green to red. Then release the button. Wait for about 5seconds, the rx led will turn soild green.

You are using tm7 or tm8? Rx is 617fs?

[khpan2003]

is TM-7 and R617FS...

base on the futaba web.. R617FS can be use with TM-7, thus i got 2x R617FS from the web
If not able to work, then had to get it to sell off already
then stick back to analog module

Thats a bit wierd coz it should work. The 7channel mode fasst should work with all 6/7channel rx, just doesn't work with 8channels and up receivers. I mean it is not like there are other full size 7channel fasst rx from futaba today, so if the 617fs doesn't work, then what will right?

The blinking green led means your rx is "seeing" the tx, but then some people have the same problem of blinking green led and yet still cannot link up too.

Maybe have to contact the seller or try another tx...

Is your tm7 newly purchased also?

[khpan2003]

the TM-7 is not newly purchase.. it work before with the older rx.. but try to bink with the 617 then encounter this problem.. maybe will write to Futaba to enquire on this...

Erm...I am just making a wild guess, could it be that your tm7 module is one of those affected by the id code self reset issue since you bought it a while back?

[khpan2003]

that what i think so.. maybe both ID is not compactable...
older and newer items sometime don't work..
now either send back to futaba to check or get a new 10C with 2.4G ready
