Remote control overview
Model selection and protocol selection
TX16S comes with a 4-in-1 multi-protocol high-frequency module, which is compatible with many different protocols. To view the latest list of all compatible protocols, please visit:
https://github.com/pascallanger/DIY-Multiprotocol-TX-Module/blob/master/Protocols_Details.md.
Please note that new protocols are constantly updated and added to the latest firmware, and some new protocols may require firmware upgrades.
press the MDL button to enter the MODEL settings, select MULTI in the MODEL SETUP page, and select the protocol you want to use in the sub-options. According to the RF protocol you choose, the system will automatically open the corresponding RF chip aboard the internal RF module while shutting down the other three RF chips that are not in use. Only one RF chip on the module will be switched on at a time to ensure that there is no interference from the unused RF chip.
- The Bind button is used to start the linking process.
- The Range button reduces power to 1/30 to facilitate testing of remote control distances.
