R8F Introduction
1. R8F Basic Introduction
1.1 Compatible transmitters
RadioLink R8F 2.4G 8-channel receiver can return the real-time information such as RSSI,
receiver voltage and model battery voltage and support high voltage, compatible with
RadioLink 6CH radio RC6GS, 4CH radio RC4GS, RC3S
，
RC4G and 8CH radio T8FB and
T8S.
Note
To realize the functions of two-way transmission telemetry, the corresponding latest firmware
needs to be flashed.
RC6GS - V6.0.0 (Compatible with RC6GS 3-position switch version ONLY)
RC4GS - V6.0.1 (Compatible with RC4GS produced AFTER Jan.1, 2018 ONLY)
The other models RC6GS with 2-position switch, RC4GS produced before 20180101, T8FB,
T8S, RC3S and RC4G can bind to R8F though the functions of 2-way transmission can’t be
realized.
1.2 Binding
Each receiver has an individual ID code and must bind with transmitter before using. When the
binding is done, the ID code will be stored in the transmitter and there’s no need to rebind.
Therefore, when a new R8F is purchased, binding needs to be done in order to work with
transmitter.
Binding steps:
1. Put the receiver and the transmitter together within 30-50cm.
2. Power on the transmitter and R8F will bind to the closest transmitter automatically.
3. Press the ID SET on the receiver’s side for more than 1second and the LED will flash,
meaning the binding process has begun.
4. When the LED stops flashing, binding is complete.
5. Test the model servo to make sure it can be operated by the transmitter.
Note:
PWM signal output mode by default as factory setting. There are two LED indicators on
R8F. RED LED (always on) indicates normal working mode while RED+BLUE LED
(always on) indicate SBUS/PPM signal output mode.
When R8F is powered on, the FLASHING RED LED means no signal or binding
WITHOUT success. Please bind the receiver to the transmitter.
