• • External Power Connector -the receiver has a power supply cable with an MPX connector
• • S – Slim design, slim receiver for using in narrow fuselage

Receivers 900 MHz

Note:
RSAT900 and RSAT900NG satellite receivers are not compatible with all transmitters. The RSAT900NG satellite receiver is compatible with DUPLEX DS 12, DUPLEX DC/DS 16II and DUPLEX DC/DS 24II transmitters. The RSAT 900 satellite receiver is intended for first generation DUPLEX DC/DS 24 transmitters.

Installation

Voltage supply
Receivers of the REX series have a wide supply voltage range of 3.5-8.4V. So you can optimize the voltage according to the supply voltage of the connected servos (standard or HV).

• if the receiver has MPX connector with cables, use it for power supply as priority
• if the receiver has inputs marked as BATT, use it for power supply as a priority

Connection examples: Note: the connection method of the satellite receiver RSAT900 and RSAT900NG are identical

Binding
When using a new receiver or transmitter, the device has to be bound.

Method :

1. Insert the BIND PLUG (included in the package) into the output of the receiver Ext.
2. Switch on the receiver – (connect a proper voltage supply to the receiver). Binding of the receiver may now be performed within 60 seconds. After the 60 seconds elapse the receiver returns to setup mode and the binding process has to be repeated by starting again from step 1.
3. Switch on the transmitter – the transmitter emits an acoustic signal announcing the detection of a new receiver.
4. Disconnect the BIND PLUG from the receiver

Note: if binding fails, turn off the transmitter and receiver and repeat all the procedures from point 1.
If the binding was successful, the transmitter, receiver and the specific model that was currently active in the transmitter are bound to the same group.

Operation of receivers in “Clone” mode
The Duplex system allows many of receivers to be bound with one model. Always one receiver that transmits telemetry data has to be in “Normal” mode. All others can be manually switched to “Clone” mode.

Setting procedure (see chapter 3.2 for details):

1. Bind the transmitter with the receiver, which you want in “Clone” mode.
2. In the transmitter menu “Menu/Applications/Jetibox/” use the F1-F4 keys to scroll through the item “RX/Main Setting/RX mode” and select “Clone”. Turn off the receiver and the transmitter.
3. Bind the transmitter with the receiver, which will be in “Normal” mode, turn off the receiver and the transmitter.
4. Turn on the transmitter and both receivers at the same time.

Note:
in this mode, both receivers have to always be switched on at the same time. Switching the receiver from “Clone” mode to “Normal” mode is possible using the same procedure, but during procedure there has to be a BIND PLUG connected to receiver (Ext. input) all the time.

Receiver setup

There are two receiver setup modes. The first is receiver setup via the JETIBOX, JETIBOX profit or JETIBOX emulation in the DC/DS transmitters, the second one is direct setup of the receiver with a DC/DS transmitter (device explorer).

Receiver set-up via the DC/DS transmitter
All setting scan be made in the transmitter menu “Menu/Model/Device explorer/REX”. Main Setting

• Output Period – signal period setting for servos. At lower values, the servos have a faster response and more consumption. For analog servos, the recommended period is 20ms, for digital “Auto”.
• Number of channels – setting the number of channels for PPM output.
• PPM/UDI (S.BUS) mode – method of processing data from the transmitter
• Direct – all receiver settings (e.g. Fail-Safe) are not included in serial communication
• Computed – all receiver settings (e.g. Fail-Safe) are part of serial communication
• Low voltage alarm – setting the threshold for alarm activation (power supply)

Fail-Safe
If the Fail Safe function is disabled, there are no signals generated on receiver outputs in case of signal loss, either serial communication in “Direct” mode. When the function is on, all receiver outputs can be set individually with the following options:

• Repeat: the receiver at the output keeps the last known value
• Turn off the pin: the output is disabled, no pulse is generated
• Fail-Safe: the output is set to the value specified in the “Value” parameter.
• Fail-safe delay : setting the time for which the system goes after signal loss to Fail-Safe mode.
• Set fail-safe position now: when this option is activated, the  current values of the positions are set for all outputs set to “Fail-Safe” mode.

Alternative pin configurations
The outputs of REX receivers can be set to various functions. Outputs marked as E1, E2 …:

• Servo – classic servo output (except E1 output for REX10) JETIBOX/Sensor – for connecting JETIBOX or telemetry sensor with EX communication
• EX Bus – digital communication for connected devices supporting this standard, for example M Vario2 (rev.2).
• EX Bus input/backup – EX Bus communication for connecting others receivers and satellite receivers.
• Digital output -the output pin is in a stable LOW condition (log. 0) if the position of this channel is negative, otherwise this pin is in  HIGH condition (log.1) (max. current 1mA).
• Digitl input – the logical value (log.1/0) at the input can be used in further programming of transmitter functions.
• PPM pos. – standard form of PPM signal generation with positive logic at PPM outputs. The bus idle state is log. 0.
• PPM neg.- standard form of PPM signal generation with negative  logic at PPM outputs. The bus idle state is log.1.
• Serial UDI 12chch/16 – serial output for devices supporting UDI (Universal Data Interface)
• S.BUS – serial output for devices supporting S.BUS
• Outputs marked as Ext.: connection of JETIBOX or telemetry sensors (EX or EX Bus), the output has automatic detection.
• Standard outputs:
  • Servo – standard impulse output for servos (-100% = 1ms, 0%= 1,5ms / +100% = 2ms )
  • Digital input/output – see description of E1, E2

Receiver outputs

• Display of functions and their assignment to receiver outputs. If necessary, it is possible to redirect any functions to the other outputs in this menu.
• Group – individual outputs can be assigned to groups A/B/C. For servos in one group, the pulses are time-synchronized. It is recommended to use all groups equally. However, assign servos controlling one function, for example two servos in one aileron, to the same group.
• Reset to default settings – after activation, the  receiver is set to the  factory settings.

Receivers settings RSAT 900 and 900NG

• DUPLEX RSAT 900 and 900NG satellite receivers are designed for operation with DUPLEX transmitters in the 900MHz band. This band is intended primarily as a backup system in case of failure of the main system in the 2.4GHz band. This significantly increases the stability of data transmission and safety of the model.
• RSAT 900 and RSAT 900NG receivers are not compatible. The RSAT 900NG receiver is compatible with DUPLEX DS 12, DUPLEX DC/DS 16II and DUPLEX DC/DS 24II. The
• RSAT 900 satellite receiver is intended only for the first generation of DC/DS 24 transmitters. The settings and connections of both types are the same.

General Settings

• Output period – setting the output period, see REX receivers (chapter 4.1.1). We recommend setting the same value in all DUPLEX devices in one model.
• Low voltage alarm – setting the threshold for alarm activation (power supply)

Alternative pin configurations
The receiver has three user adjustable outputs E1-E3 and one standard Ext.

Output settings E1, E2, E3:

• EX-Bus – digital communication for transmission of servos deflection, telemetry and configuration data. This setting is suitable, for example, for connection to a Central Box or a device that supports EX-Bus.
• BUS – digital communication for  transmission of servos deflection (16 channels only). This setting is suitable,  for connecting to a  device that supports S.BUS.
• UDI 12 – serial data output suitable for connection of devices with unidirectional UDI interface (12 channels).
• UDI 16 – serial data output suitable for connection of devices with unidirectional UDI interface (16 channels).
• Output settings Ext. : This pin is used only to bind the receiver by a jumper (bind plug).
• Reset to factory defaults: resets all configurable items to the default settings.
