This image displays the Jamara 061263 2.4 GHz receiver. Key features visible include the "LED" indicator, "UPDATE" port, "ProTel" branding, "JAMARA GERMANY" logo, "6 CHANNELS" and "2.4GHZ RECEIVER" labels. On the right side, connection ports are labeled: "B/VCC" (Battery/Voltage Common Collector), "I-BUS", "SENS" (Sensor), and individual channels "CH1" through "CH6". The receiver also indicates "AUTOMATIC FREQUENCY HOPPING DIGITAL SYSTEM". Two grey antenna wires extend from the left side of the unit.

Key Components:

• LED Indicator: Provides status feedback (e.g., power, binding status).
• UPDATE Port: Used for firmware updates.
• Channel Ports (CH1-CH6): Connect servos, ESCs, and other control devices.
• B/VCC Port: Power input for the receiver.
• I-BUS Port: For digital serial bus communication.
• SENS Port: For connecting telemetry sensors.
• Antennas: Two antenna wires for optimal signal reception.

Setup

Follow these steps to set up your Jamara 061263 receiver:

1. Mounting: Securely mount the receiver in your model, ensuring the antennas are positioned away from metal parts and carbon fiber, ideally at a 90-degree angle to each other for best reception.
2. Power Connection: Connect a suitable power source (4.0-6.5V DC) to the B/VCC port. Ensure correct polarity.
3. Servo/ESC Connections: Connect your servos and Electronic Speed Controllers (ESCs) to the appropriate channel ports (CH1-CH6) as per your model's requirements and transmitter setup.
4. Binding Procedure:
   • Ensure your Jamara FCX-6Pro Tel transmitter is turned off.
   • Power on the receiver. The LED indicator will typically flash, indicating it's in binding mode or waiting for a signal.
   • Refer to your Jamara FCX-6Pro Tel transmitter manual for its specific binding procedure. Generally, this involves holding a bind button on the transmitter while powering it on, or selecting a bind function from the transmitter's menu.
   • Once bound, the receiver's LED should turn solid, indicating a successful connection.
   • Turn off both the transmitter and receiver, then power them on again in the correct sequence (transmitter first, then receiver) to confirm the binding.
5. Telemetry Sensor Connection (Optional): If using telemetry sensors, connect them to the SENS port. Refer to the sensor's manual for specific connection details.

Operation

Once the receiver is successfully bound to your transmitter and all components are connected, you can begin operating your model. Always ensure the transmitter is powered on before the receiver to prevent unintended control inputs.

• Power On Sequence: Always turn on your transmitter first, then power on the model (and thus the receiver).
• Pre-Flight Check: Before each use, verify that all control surfaces and functions respond correctly to transmitter inputs. Check battery levels of both the transmitter and the model.
• Range Check: Perform a range check in an open area to ensure reliable signal reception at a safe distance.
• Power Off Sequence: Always power off the model (receiver) first, then turn off your transmitter.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliability of your receiver:

• Cleaning: Keep the receiver clean and free from dust, dirt, and moisture. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
• Storage: Store the receiver in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
• Antenna Care: Do not bend or crimp the antenna wires excessively. Ensure they are not cut or damaged.
• Firmware Updates: Periodically check the Jamara website for any available firmware updates for your receiver. Use the UPDATE port and follow the manufacturer's instructions for updating.
