5. Nastavení

5.1 Fyzické připojení

Connect the XR3 receiver to your flight controller or other compatible device using the provided CRSF wire. Ensure correct polarity and pin assignments for 5V, TX (Transmit), and RX (Receive).

• 5V: Power input (DC 4.5-8.4V)
• TX: Telemetry data output from receiver
• RX: Control data input to receiver

5.2 Instalace antény

Carefully connect the two T-antennas to the IPEX-1 connectors on the receiver board. Ensure they are securely attached. Position the antennas to maximize signal reception, typically at a 90-degree angle to each other for optimal diversity.

5.3 Binding (Pairing)

The XR3 receiver uses the ExpressLRS protocol for binding. Follow these general steps:

1. Power on your receiver three times, cycling power quickly. The LED on the receiver should flash rapidly, indicating it is in bind mode.
2. On your ExpressLRS compatible transmitter, initiate the binding process. Refer to your transmitter's manual for specific instructions.
3. Once bound, the LED on the receiver will turn solid, indicating a successful connection.

Alternatively, the XR3 features a bind button. Press and hold the bind button while powering on the receiver to enter bind mode. The receiver also supports binding via WiFi.

5.4 aktualizací firmwaru

The XR3 receiver supports firmware updates via its built-in WiFi. Connect to the receiver's WiFi network using a PC or mobile device and access the WebUI to manage settings and update firmware. Ensure you are using the correct firmware target: "RadioMaster XR3 2.4/900 Diversity RX".

6. Provoz

6.1 Výběr frekvence

The XR3 receiver is capable of operating on either 2.4GHz or Sub-G 900MHz frequencies. The type of antenna included with your package determines the primary operating frequency. If you have a dual-band antenna, the receiver can switch between 2.4GHz and 900MHz without requiring an antenna change. Ensure your transmitter is configured to match the receiver's operating frequency.

6.2 ExpressLRS Functionality

Once bound, the XR3 receiver will communicate with your ExpressLRS transmitter, providing control and telemetry data. The antenna diversity feature automatically selects the best signal from the two antennas, enhancing link quality and range, especially in challenging RF environments. The telemetry power output is 100mW.

7. Údržba

The XR3 receiver is designed for durability, but proper care can extend its lifespan:

• Udržujte přijímač čistý a bez prachu, nečistot a vlhkosti.
• Nevystavujte přijímač extrémním teplotám nebo přímému slunečnímu záření po delší dobu.
• Ensure antenna connections are secure but do not overtighten.
• Regularly check for any visible damage to the board or antennas.

8. Řešení problémů

If you encounter issues with your XR3 receiver, consider the following:

• No Bind: Ensure the receiver is in bind mode (rapidly flashing LED) and your transmitter is attempting to bind on the correct ExpressLRS firmware version and frequency. Check power connections.
• Poor Signal/Range: Verify antenna connections and positioning. Ensure no obstructions are blocking the signal path. Check for local RF interference. Confirm the correct frequency band (2.4GHz or 900MHz) is selected on both receiver and transmitter.
• No Telemetry: Check the TX/RX wiring between the receiver and flight controller. Ensure CRSF protocol is correctly configured in your flight controller and transmitter.
• Přijímač se nezapíná: Zkontrolujte napájení objtage (DC 4.5-8.4V) and polarity. Inspect for any short circuits or damaged components.
