Instruction Manual for FrSky TW R6 Receiver

Introduction

TWIN series TW R6 receiver features a new stable TW protocol that benefits from simultaneously integrating dual active 2.4G frequency bands. The TW active-active protocol is different from the general active-standby redundancy solutions (where one receiver takes over signal control only when the other is in Failsafe mode), with the TW protocol, dual 2.4G frequency bands are active on the TW series receiver at the same time. This receiver is designed for RC users who want to benefit from resilience and long-range in their radio communications, typically up to tens of kilometers is achievable.
The TW R6 receiver is equipped with 2x 2.4G antennas. The signal output ports include one SBUS output channel and 6 PWM output channel ports. It also supports telemetry functions through FBUS / S.Port. By setting the TW R6 to use FBUS protocol in the ETHOS system, the signal control and telemetry can be connected to any device that supports FBUS protocol through only one line to achieve bidirectional transmission, also simplifying the model build using fewer wires. In addition to all this, the inverted S.Port on the receiver can allow for easily connecting flight controllers.
In addition, TW R6 also supports 4ms race mode with ultra-low latency. When combining race mode with TW series resilient dual 2.4G solution, racers have a fast, stable, and reliable signal in racing competitions, without fear of signal loss due to interference.

Registration & Automatic Binding

Follow the step below to finish the registration & binding procedure:

  1. For TWIN X Lite as an example, enter into the Model, select RF System, turn on the internal module, select status [ON] and TW MODE(Type), then select [Register].
  2. Connect the battery to the receiver while holding the button on the receiver. The RED LED and GREEN LED on the receiver will be on, indicating into the [Reg] status.
  3. When it shows the Register ID, RX name and UID, click [Register]. The RED LED and GREEN LED on the receiver will flash, and the transmitter displays [Registration OK ].
  4. Power off the receiver.
  5. Move the cursor to select any one of the 3 receivers and press [Bind].
  6. Connect the battery to the receiver.
  7. Select the RX, the GREEN and BLUE LED will keep lit, then the transmitter displays [Bind successful].

Note: Once the receiver is registered, the button is not needed anymore in the binding process.

How to switch the S.Port/F.Port/FBUS
Enter into the Set-Options, click the Telem.Port, and select S.Port/F.Port/FBUS.
How to enter into 4ms race mode
Enter into Model-RF system, select the Channel Range as CH1-CH8. Click [Switch Positions] and select a switch to start 4ms race mode.
How to switch SBUS channel mode
Enter into RX Settings, click [SBUS], then select SBUS-16 mode or SBUS-24 mode.

About OTA function

Go to the [File manager], and select the FW, press the enter button, select [Flash RX by int.OTA]. Power on the receiver, select the RX, go to the [ENTER], complete the flash process, the transmitter will display [Success].
Wait for 3 seconds, the receiver works properly at the moment.
Note: Please do not do the binding operation in the near range while the firmware upgrading in progress.
Note: Update the firmware after the receiver getting registered (OTA).
