• Normal mode/High Speed mode

The "Normal mode" accepts any type of servos or the peripheral. The "High Speed mode" only accepts the digital servos,
including BLS series, and most peripheral equipments such as the brushless ESCs. Please pay special attention to the information
contained within this manual and transmitter's manual in order to have a pleasant running experience.

• Diversity antenna equipment

Note: The R324SBS is compatible with the T-FHSS system transmitters.

The receiver type setting of the transmitter is set in T-FHSS.

*Futaba T-FHSS system does not work with current Futaba S-FHSS/FHSS/FASSTest/FASST /T-FHSS Air system.

Usage condition on "High Speed mode"

CAUTION

When using the high-speed mode, use a Futaba digital servo
(including brushless servo). Analog servos cannot be used.

• The use of analog servos may cause servo trouble.

WARNING

After the linking is done, please cycle receiver power and check if the
receiver to be linked is really under the control by the transmitter to be linked.

Do not perform the linking procedure with motor's main wire connected
or with the engine operating as it may result in serious injury.

, the running status can be displayed at the transmitter. The telemetry data can be checked at the

telemetry sensor

sold separately to the

S.BUS2

connector of the

R324SBS

receiver.

WARNING

NEVER use dry batteries for the power supply of the R324SBS as

this may cause difficulties with the receiver's operation.

Wrap the receiver with something soft, such as foam rubber, to avoid
vibration. Do not splash water over the receiver.

Since the receiver generates a certain amount of heat, install the
place with good ventilation.

Do not put any conductive equipment/sticker on the antenna part.

Link Procedure

Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. In order to start
operation, the receiver must be linked with the ID code of the transmitter with
which it is being paired. Once the link is made, the ID code is stored in the
receiver and no further linking is necessary unless the receiver is to be used with
another transmitter.

Place the transmitter and the receiver close to each other within

1

half (0.5) meter.

Place the transmitter into the linking mode, and turn on the

2

receiver.

During countdown, push the receiver tact switch for

3

approximately 2 seconds. The LED will begin to blink red. After
the receiver LED switches from blinking red to green→green
(red) steady light, If the transmitter and receiver are linked
normally, set the power switch to the OFF position and then
return it to the PWR ON position. If the receiver LED lights
green, linking was successful. (T4PLS,T4GRS : set the power
switch to the OFF position and then return it to the PWR ON
position.) Actually check servo operation.

* Please refer to the table below for LED status and receiver condition.
* Refer to the transmitters operation manual for complete details on how to place the transmitter

into the linking mode.

* If there are many T-FHSS systems turned on in close proximity, your receiver might have

difficulty establishing a link to your transmitter. This is a rare occurrence. However, should
another T-FHSS transmitter/receiver be linking at the same time, your receiver could link to the

wrong transmitter. This is very dangerous if you do not notice this situation. In order to avoid
the problem,we strongly recommend you to double check whether your receiver is really under
control by your transmitter.
