Re-Binding the Transmitter
to the Receiver
The Losi DSM radio system included in the Mini SCT
operates on 2.4GHz. 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 27MHz or 75MHz 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.
Steps to Re-Bind
1. Ensure the transmitter and vehicle are both turned off.
2. 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.
Note: You do not need to remove any
of the other plugs to re-bind.
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. Both the receiver and transmitter blinking Orange LEDs
will stop blinking and become solid indicating they have
“bound” themselves together.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. The Bind process is complete. Your vehicle’s radio
system should be ready for use.
