AR620 6-Channel Telemetry Receiver

The Spektrum™ AR620 receiver is a full range telemetry receiver featuring DSM® technology and is compatible with all Spektrum™ and JR® aircraft radios that support DSM2® and DSMX® technology.

The AR620 receiver features ﬂ y-by telemetry data for ﬂ ight log information as well as receiver battery voltage. This allows ﬂ ight log and receiver voltage to be displayed on telemetry capable Spektrum transmitters in ﬂ y-by range, typically 300-400 feet. For information on Spektrum Telemetry Sensors visit: http://www.spektrumrc.com

The AR620 is not compatible with the Flight Log, SPM9540. Flight Log information is only available through a Spektrum Telemetry capable transmitter.

Receiver Installation

Installing the Receiver

Install the receiver in the normal position recommended by the airplane’s manufacturer. Double-sided tape or foam can be used to secure the receiver in place.

Binding

The AR620 receiver must be bound to the transmitter before they will operate. Binding is the process of teaching the receiver the speciﬁ c code of the transmitter so it will only connect to that speciﬁ c transmitter.

1. Push and hold the bind button on the receiver while powering up the receiver. Release the Bind button once the orange LED starts to ﬂ ash continuously, indicating that the receiver is in bind mode. The receiver will also enter bind mode if you power on the receiver and then press the bind button before the receiver has connected to any transmitter.

2. Put your transmitter in bind mode.

3. The bind process is complete when the orange LED on the receiver is solid.

4. After you set up your model, always rebind the transmitter and receiver to set the desired failsafe positions. See FAILSAFE on the next page.

Failsafe

Failsafe position is set during binding. In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during use, the receiver will drive all channels to its pre-programmed

failsafe position.

SmartSafe + Hold Last

If loss of signal occurs, SmartSafe™ technology moves the throttle channel to its preset failsafe position (low throttle) that was set during binding. All other channels hold their last position. When the receiver detects signal from the transmitter, normal aircraft operation resumes.

Preset Failsafe

Preset failsafe is ideal for sailplanes, allowing the aircraft to automatically dethermalize if the signal is lost. With preset failsafe, all channels go to their preset failsafe positions if the signal is lost, preventing a ﬂ yaway. When the receiver detects signal from the transmitter, normal aircraft operation resumes.
