FLYSKY FBr12 Receiver Instructions

FLYSKY FBr12 Receiver

Product Information

The FBr12 receiver is a marine receiver with a high level of waterproofing (PPX7). It uses the AFHDS3 (the third generation automatic frequency hopping digital system) and features external dual antennas with transfer back function. The receiver can output PWM/PPM/i-BUS/S.BUS/i-BUS 2 signals and supports Newport switching. It is compatible with all AFHDS 3 transmitters and RF modules.

Binding: Follow the steps above to bind again.

Forced Update

1. Bind: Short circuit bind and its separated signal pins with bind cable.
2. LED: Power on the receiver to enter the update mode (LED light of the receiver changes from three-flash-one-off), unplug the bind cable, and select forced update at the transmitter.
3. LED 3 1: The LED light of the receiver changes from 3 flash and 1 off to slow flash, indicating that the update is  completed.

Failsafe
PWM: [ ][ ] [ ] [ ] PWM; [ ] [ ] PPM/i-BUS/S.BUS/i-BUS2: [ ][ ] [ ] S.BUS/i-BUS2: [ ][ ] PPM/i-BUS: [ ][ ] The failsafe function is used to output the channel value according to the out-of-control protection value set by the user after the receiver loses its signal and is out of control. It can also be set failsafe for each channel respectively. This receiver supports three failsafe modes: No output, Hold, and Fixed value.

Notes:

• For bus signal types such as PPM/i-BUS/S.BUS/i-BUS2, a single or several of these channels are not allowed to be in No output mode. The actual signal is held at the last output value when the channel is set to No output mode.
• Because the S.BUS/i-BUS2 signal information contains failsafe flag bits, the failsafe settings of each channel are communicated to subsequent devices by the failsafe flag bits. If the connected devices support the failsafe flag bit analysis, the failsafe values set for each channel are output after out of control. 3. For the signal PPM/i-BUS without failsafe flag bits, it supports the setting of the signal to No output mode in case of out of control. After setting to No output mode, regardless of the setting of the failsafe of each channel, each channel will be in No output mode after out of control.

Binding

1. Insert the bind cable into the receivers BIND port;
2. Plug the power cable into any other port, and the receiver’s LED will start to flash quickly indicating that it has entered bind mode.
3. Put the transmitter into bind mode; (See the transmitter’s instruction manual for more information)
4. Binding is successful when the receiver’s LED will stop flashing. Remove the power and bind cables from the receiver.
5. Reconnect the power cable to the receiver.
6. Check to make sure that the transmitter and receiver are working as expected, if there are any issues or unexpected operation follow the steps above to bind again.

Forced Update

After the transmitter is updated, if the code cannot be matched with the receiver, it is necessary to update the receiver.

1. Short circuit bind and its separated signal pins with bind cable;
2. Power on the receiver to enter the update mode(LED light of the receiver changes from three-flash-one-off), unplug the bind cable, and select forced update at the transmitter.
3. The LED light of the receiver changes from 3 flash and 1 off to slow flash, the update is completed.

Failsafe

The failsafe function is used to output the channel value according to the out-of-control protection value set by the user after the receiver loses its signal and is out of control to protect the model and personnel.
It can also be set failsafe for each channel respectively. This receiver supports three failsafe modes: No output, Hold, and Fixed value.
No output No output for PWM interface.
Hold Keep the last output value.
Fixed value Output the failsafe values set for each channel.

Notes:

1. For bus signal types such as PPM/i-BUS/S.BUS/i-BUS2, a single or several of these channels are not allowed to be in No output mode. The actual signal is held at the last output value when the channel is set to No output mode.
2. Because the S.BUS/i-BUS2 signal information contains failsafe flag bits, the failsafe settings of each channel are communicated to subsequent devices by the failsafe flag bits. If the connected devices support the failsafe flag bit analysis, the failsafe values set for each channel are output after out of control.
3. For the signal PPM/i-BUS without failsafe flag bits, it supports the setting of the signal to No output mode in case of out of control. After setting to No output mode, regardless of the setting of the failsafe of each channel, each channel will be in No output mode after out of control.

Attention:

1. Make sure the product is installed and calibrated correctly, failure to do so may result in serious injury.
2. Make sure the receiver’s battery is disconnected before turning off the transmitter, failure to do so lead to lose control. Unreasonable setting of the Failsafe may cause accidents.
3. Make sure the receiver is mounted away from motors, electronic speed controllers or any device that emits excessive electrical noise.
4. Keep the receiver’s antenna at least 1cm away from conductive materials such as carbon or metal.
5. Do not power on the receiver during the setup process to prevent loss of control.
