5.1. د رسیدونکي سره تړل

The ER8 receiver comes with ExpressLRS 3.3.0 pre-installed. To bind the receiver to your ExpressLRS compatible transmitter, follow these general steps:

1. Ensure your transmitter's ExpressLRS module is powered on and set to bind mode.
2. Power on the ER8 receiver. The LED on the receiver will flash slowly.
3. Quickly power cycle the receiver three times (power on, wait for LED flash, power off, repeat). On the third power-up, the LED should flash rapidly, indicating it is in bind mode.
4. Once the receiver is in bind mode, initiate the binding process from your transmitter.
5. A successful bind is indicated by a solid LED on the receiver.

For detailed binding procedures specific to your ExpressLRS firmware version and transmitter, refer to the official ExpressLRS documentation.

5.2. د تارونو نښلول

The ER8 receiver provides 8 PWM output channels, a CRSF bus interface, and an external voltage telemetry input.

• PWM Channels (CH1-CH8): Connect your servos, ESCs, or other PWM-controlled devices to the corresponding channels. Ensure correct polarity (Signal, Positive, Negative).
• CRSF Interface (+ RX TX): This 4-pin port is used for future optional telemetry sensors or other CRSF-compatible devices. Connect the included CRSF wire if needed.
• خارجي ټوکtage Telemetry (EXT-V): Use the included Type-B voltage telemetry wire to connect to your aircraft's main battery for external voltage monitoring. The detection range is DC 4.0 - 35V.
• انتن: The receiver comes with two 20cm high-sensitivity antennas. Ensure they are mounted in a way that provides optimal signal reception, typically at 90-degree angles to each other, away from carbon fiber or metal obstructions.

5.3. Firmware Updates and WiFi Configuration

The ER8 receiver supports WiFi updates and WebUI configuration. This allows for easy firmware upgrades and adjustment of receiver settings without physical connection to a computer.

1. To activate WiFi mode, power on the receiver and then quickly press the BOOT button twice. The LED will indicate WiFi mode (refer to ExpressLRS documentation for specific LED patterns).
2. Connect to the receiver's WiFi network from your computer or smartphone.
3. خلاص a web browser and navigate to the ExpressLRS WebUI (usually 10.0.0.1).
4. څخه WebUI, you can update firmware, configure output settings, and monitor telemetry data.
