Communicate with two receivers

Receiver : A

Receiver : B

Even if there is a problem with 

the B receiver, communication 

will be performed with the A 

receiver.

Even if there is a problem with 

the A receiver, communication 

will be performed with the B 

receiver.

In Dual RX link mode, the SB2/RX port is for reception 

only, so use CH mode B, C, D, F, G mode for S.BUS 

output and S.BUS2 input/output.

Do not bend the antenna part

Gently bend the coaxial 

cable part.

FASSTest is a bidirectional communication system 

between the R7208SB receiver and FASSTest capable 

transmitters.  Multiple optional telemetry sensors may be 

connected to the S.BUS2 on the receiver and that data is in 

turn displayed on the transmitter.

Link to the transmitter 

1

 Bring the transmitter and the receiver close to each 

other, within 20 inches (half meter).

2

 Turn on the transmitter.  Place the transmitter into 

the receiver linking mode.

3

 Turn on the receiver.

4

 The receiver will wait for the linking process to 

begin for 2 seconds. Following that it will return to 

the normal operation mode.

5

 When the LED of the receiver changes from 

blinking red to solid green, linking is complete.

    (A link waiting state is ended in 1 second.)

• Refer to the transmitter's operation manual for complete 

details on how to place the transmitter into the linking 

mode.

• If there are many FASSTest systems turned on in close 

proximity, your receiver might have difficulty establishing a 

link to your transmitter.  This is a rare occurrence.  However, 

should another FASSTest transmitter/receiver be linking 

at the same time, your receiver could link to the wrong 

transmitter.  This is very dangerous if not noticed. To avoid 

the problem, we strongly recommend that you double 

check whether your receiver is really under control by your 

transmitter. 

• If the System Type of the transmitter is changed, the 

receiver will need to be re-linked to the transmitter.

S.BUS2   

  

                                       

S.BUS2 extends S.BUS and supports bidirectional 

communication. Sensors are connected to the S.BUS2 port.

Channel Modes

The R7208SB is capable of changing its channel allocations 

as described in the table below.  This is especially important 

when using the receiver in a dual receiver mode.  See 

your transmitter operation manual for complete details on 

operating in the dual receiver mode. 

1

  Turn on the receiver. [Transmitter is always OFF]

2

 Press and hold the SW for 5 seconds to 10 seconds.

When the LED of the receiver changes from blinking 

red to blinking orange, SW is released.

4

 The LED should now blink red two times in the 

patterns described in the chart below.

5

 

Each press of the SW advances the receiver to the 

next mode.

6

 

When you reach the mode that you wish to operate 

in, press and hold the SW for more than 2 seconds.

 

When LED blinks in green with red, it is the 

completion of a mode change, SW is released.

Cycle the receiver power off and back on again after 

changing the Channel mode.

1

  Turn on the receiver. [Transmitter is always OFF]

2

  Press and hold the SW for 5 seconds or more.

Dual Rx Link System

By installing two receivers in one aircraft, if one receiver 

becomes unable to communicate, the other receiver can be 

operated.
