DSMX

Spektrum launched the 2.4GHz RC revolution with its DSM2™ technology. Since then, millions of hobbyists the world over have come to embrace 2.4 as the way to ﬂy. Spektrum leads the way yet again with DSMX—the world’s ﬁrst wideband, frequency-agile 2.4GHz signal protocol.

How Does DSMX Work?

It’s a crowded 2.4GHz world out there and every 2.4GHz system faces the same challenges. DSMX better equips you for these challenges by combining the superior data capacity and interference resistance of a wideband signal (like that used in DSM2) with the agility of frequency shifts.

Compared to the wideband signal of DSMX, the narrow band signal of other frequency hopping 2.4 transmitters is more likely to suffer data loss in the event of on-channel interference. Think of it as a river vs. a stream. It takes more interference to dam a river than it does a stream.

As more and more 2.4 transmitters vie for the same number of available channels, there is more interference and more of a risk for data loss. By adding the agility of frequency shifts to the superior interference resistance of a wideband signal, DSMX is far less likely to suffer signiﬁcant data loss from on-channel interference. The result is quicker connection times and superior response in even the most crowded 2.4GHz environment.

DSMX Operational Differences

DSMX transmitters and receivers function nearly identically to Spektrum DSM2 systems. Binding, setting the failsafe, recording ﬂight log data, as well as general use of the system is no different than using any current Spektrum system.

Following are the operational differences:

Brownout Detection - Not Available on DSMX Receivers DSM2 receivers feature Brownout Detection that ﬂashes the receiver’s LED if a power interruption occurs. While DSMX receivers have QuickConnect a power interruption, the architecture of DSMX prevents Brownout Detection when operating in DSMX mode.

Flight Log Recording-Fades Higher than DSM2

Note that DSMX hops through the band while DSM2 ﬁnds two quiet channels and remains on those channels. Consequently because DSMX operates on quiet and noisy channels, it’s common to have more Antenna Fades than when using DSM2, when used in busy 2.4GHz environments. When taking ﬂight log data readings, the Frames and Hold Data are important and should be used a reference while Fades are insigniﬁcant due to the nature of frequency hopping. A 10-minute ﬂight will typically result in less than 50 Frame Losses and no Holds.

Just How Good is DSMX?

In multiple tests, 100 DSMX systems were operated simultaneously for extended periods of time. During these tests each of the 100 systems was monitored in ﬂight and on the ground. In every test not a single case of RF link loss, latency increase or control degradation was experienced or recorded.

Is DSMX Compatible with DSM2?

Yes. DSMX is fully compatible with all DSM2 hardware. In fact, many pilots may ﬁnd the DSM2 equipment they have now is all they will ever need. Even if a new DSMX transmitter eventually comes along that they really want, all the DSM2 receivers they have now will work with it.

It is important to note, however, that while DSMX is compatible with DSM2, the only way to experience the full beneﬁts of DSMX in a busy 2.4 environment is by pairing a DSMX transmitter with a DSMX receiver.

Are DSM2 Transmitters Eligible for a DSMX Add-on? Yes. DX8 owners can simply download Spektrum AirWare

™

software from spektrumrc.com and update the ﬁrmware using their SD card. All DSM2 transmitters, except the DX5e, are eligible for the add-on by going to https://community.spektrumrc.com/ for details. DSM2 receivers and transmitter modules are not eligible for the DSMX add-on.

™

Does DSMX have ModelMatch

and ServoSync™?

Yes. DSMX will provide you with these and other exclusive Spektrum advantages you already enjoy with DSM2. Want to know more about DSMX? Visit spektrumrc. com for complete details on this as well as the many other reasons Spektrum is the leader in 2.4.

Note: DSMX receivers are not compatible with DSM2 remote receivers and DSM2 receivers are not compatible with DSMX remote receivers.

• DSMX transmitters are compatible with all DSM2 and DSMX receivers and will

operate in the mode noted below.

• DSM2 transmitters are compatible with all DSM2 and DSMX receivers and will

operate in the mode noted below.

• DSMX technology is active only when both transmitter and receiver are DSMX

enabled.

Note 1: DSMX upgraded DX5e and DX6i transmitters are compatible with all DSMX receivers except the high-speed DSM2 receivers (like the AR7600, AR9000, etc.). When using a high-speed DSM2 receiver with the DX5e or DX6i, it’s necessary to manually put these transmitters into DSM2 mode. See the Spektrum website for details on DX5e/DX6i DSM2 mode for details.

Installing and Plugging in the Optional Servos

Use double-sided foam tape strips and/or minimal hot glue to mount the servos in place. The servos need to be in the appropriate position to attach to the corresponding pushrods. Plug the servo leads into the appropriate servo ports in the receiver, noting the polarity of the servo connector. Installation will vary depending upon application.

Smart Bind™

The AR6410/AR6410L receiver must be bound to the transmitter before it will operate. Binding is the process of programming the receiver of the control unit to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identiﬁer) code of a single speciﬁc transmitter.The AR6410/AR6410L features Smart Bind. When the receiver is ﬁrst powered, the receiver will look for the signal of its previously bound transmitter for 5 seconds. If no signal is found, the receiver will automatically go into bind mode, indicated by the ﬂashing LED.

Binding

1. Make sure the ﬂight battery is fully charged.

2. Conﬁrm the ﬂight battery is disconnected from the receiver/ESC unit and the

transmitter is turned off.

3. Plug the ﬂight battery into the receiver’s battery connector. After 5 seconds the

LED on the receiver unit will ﬂashes, indicating it is in bind mode.

4. After verifying the LED is ﬂashing on the receiver, put the transmitter into bind

mode. (Refer to your transmitter manual for more information.)

LED

5. If you entered bind mode correctly, you will see a solid LED within about 10 seconds. You should now be bound to the transmitter and have full control and function.

IMPORTANT: After Binding

Once the system is bound, the transmitter should always be turned on ﬁrst and then the receiver to prevent the receiver from re-entering bind mode. If your receiver inadvertently enters bind mode, simply unplug the battery from the receiver and reinstall with the transmitter remaining on.

Advanced Programming Features

The following programming features are only recommended for advanced radio users. To safely accomplish advanced programming feature changes, please enlist the use of a helper; one person to hold the aircraft to prevent unintended ﬂyaways, and a second person to make the changes on the transmitter.

1. To bind the AR6410/AR6410L to the transmitter, plug the battery into the

receiver. The LED on the receiver will begin ﬂashing.

2. Move the sticks and switches on the transmitter to the desired failsafe positions

(low throttle and neutral control positions).

3. DX5e: Pull and hold the Trainer Switch on the transmitter while turning the

transmitter on. Release the trainer switch once the LEDs on the front of the transmitter ﬂash. DX6i: Pull and hold the Trainer Switch on the transmitter while turning the transmitter on. Release the trainer switch once the word BIND ﬂashes on the LCD screen on the front of the transmitter.

DX7s/DX8: Press the bind button on the transmitter while turning the transmitter on. Release the button after 2–3 seconds.

ModelMatch™

Some Spektrum and JR transmitters offer a patent pending feature called ModelMatch. ModelMatch prevents the possibility of operating a model using the wrong model memory, potentially preventing a crash. With ModelMatch each model memory has its own unique code (GUID) and during the binding process the code is programmed into the receiver. Later, when the system is turned on, the receiver will only connect to the transmitter if the corresponding model memory is programmed on screen.

If at any time you turn on the system and it fails to connect, check to be sure the correct model memory is selected in the transmitter. Please note that the DX5e and Aircraft Modules do not have ModelMatch.

HINWEIS

Spezielle Bedeutungen

DSMX

Spektrum hat die RC Technologie mit dem DSM2 System revolutioniert und damit Millionen von RC Hobbyfreunden zu zufriedenen Nutzern des 2,4 Ghz Systems gemacht. Spektrum setzt jetzt mit dem DSMX System wieder Meilensteine. DSMX ist weltweit das erste Breitband Frequenz agile 2,4 Ghz Signalprotokoll.

Wie arbeitet DSMX ?

Die Nutzer des 2,4 GHz Frequenzbereich werden immer mehr und durch diese Menge steht jedes System vor der Herrausforderung auch in Zukunft eine sichere Übertragung zu gewährleisten. Das DSMX ist für diese Herausforderungen besser gewappnet, kombiniert es die excellente Datenkapazität und Sicherheit vor Störungen eines Breitbandsignales (wie bei DSM2) genutzt mit der Frequenzagilität.

Verglichen mit dem Breitbandsignal des DSMX neigen die Signale anderer Frequenzhoppingsysteme dazu Daten bei Kanalstörungen zu verlieren. Stellen Sie sich einfach das DSMX System wie einen breiten mächtigen Fluss vor und die Frequenzhoppingsysteme wie einen Bach. Es braucht erheblich mehr Einﬂuß einen großen Strom zu stören als einen Bach.

Die Zahl der Nutzer der 2.4Ghz Systeme steigt ständig bei gleichbleibender Zahl der zur Verfügung stehender Kanäle. Daraus ergibt sich ein höheres Risiko für Datenverluste. Zusammen mit der Frequenzagilität und der hervorragenden Störsicherheit des Breitbandsignales ist das DSMX System die sicherste Wahl. Weitere Vorteile des Systems sind schnelle Verbindungszeiten und excellente Resonanz auch in dichtester 2,4 Ghz Umgebung.

Unterschiede im DSMX Betrieb

DSMX Sender und Empfänger arbeiten nahezu indentisch wie das Spektrum DSM2 System. Der Bindevorgang, Einstellen des Failsafe, Aufzeichnen der Flight Log Daten und der allgemeine Betrieb des Systems mach keinen Unterschied zu dem bestehenden Spektrum System.

Die Systemunterschiede

Brownout Detection (Spannungsabfalldetektion): Diese Funktion steht bei DSMX Empfängern nicht mehr zu Verfügung. DSM2 Empfänger sind mit einer Brownout Detection ausgestattet ,die eine LED zur Erkennung des Spannungsabfall blinken läßt. DSMX Empfänger sind mit der Quick Connect Funktion ausgestattet, die sich unverzüglich nach einer Stromunterbrechung wieder verbindet. Die Architektur von DSMX verhindert so den Brownout im DSMX Mode.

Flight Log Aufzeichnungen - Mehr Ausblendungen als bei DSM2

Bitte beachten Sie, dass DSMX sich in den Kanälen bewegt, während DSM2 sich zwei ruhige Kanäle sucht und auf ihnen bleibt. Da DSMX auf beiden Kanaltypen arbeitet ist es normal, dass es mehr Antennenausblendungen (Fades) gibt. Bei dem Auslesen der Flight Log Daten sind die angezeigten Frames Losses und Hold Daten wichtig und sollten als Referenz verwendet werden. Die Angaben der Fades (Ausblendungen) können aufgrund der Natur der Frequenzagilität als unwesentlich eingestuft werden. Ein 10 Minuten Flug kann typischweise weniger als 50 Frame Losses aufweisen und keine Holds.

Wie gut ist DSMX ?

In multiplen Tests wurden für einen langen Zeitraum 100 DSMX Systeme gleichzeitig betrieben. Während der Tests wurde jedes DSMX System im Flug und am Boden überwacht. In jedem Test wurde kein Verlust der RF Verbindung, Verringerung der Latenzzeit oder ein Qualitätsverlust der Verbindung aufgezeichnet.

Ist DSMX kompatibel mit DSM ?

Ja, DSMX ist voll kompabitel zu DSM2. Viele Piloten haben mit ihrer DSM2 Ausrüstung das gefunden was sie für Ihr Hobby brauchen. Da ist es gut zu wissen, dass auch ein neuer DSMX Sender mit den vorhandenen DSM2 Empfängern kompatibel ist. Wichtig zu bemerken ist, dass trotz der Kompatibilität von DSMX zu DSM2 alle Vorteile des DSMX nur dann zum Tragen kommen, wenn ein DSMX Sender mit einem DMX Empfänger betrieben wird.

Sind DSM2 Sender für eine DSMX Erweiterung geeignet ?

Ja, DX8 Besitzer können Ihre Anlage aufrüsten mit dem Download der Spektrum Air Ware v2.0 Software von Spektrum RC, die über die SD Karte in die Firmware der Anlage übertragen wird. Alle DSM2 Sender mit Ausnahme der DX5e können mit einer DSMX Erweiterung über den technischen Service von Horizon Hobby für Euro: 79,99 ausgerüstet werden. DSM2 Empfänger und Module sind für diese Erweiterung nicht geeignet.

Hat DSMX ModellMatch und ServoSync ?

Ja, DSMX hat dieses beiden und andere exklusive Funktionen, die Sie schon mit Ihrem DSM2 System schätzen. Wollen Sie mehr über DSMX wissen? Besuchen Sie spektrumrc.com für alle Details und viele andere Gründe warum Spektrum führend im Bereich 2.4 Ghz ist.

Hinweis: DSMX Empfänger sind nicht kompatibel mit DSM2 Satellitenempfänger und DSM2 Empfänger sind nicht kompatibel mit DSMX Satellitenempfänger.

• DSMX Sender sind kompatibel mit allen DSM2 und DSMX Empfängern und

arbeiten in dem unten aufgeführten Modes.

• DSM2 Sender sind kompatibel mit allen DSM2 und DSMX Empfängern und

arbeiten in dem unten aufgeführten Modes.

• Die DSMX Technologie ist nur dann aktiv, wenn bei dem Sender und Empfänger

diese Funktion aktiviert wurde.

Hinweis 1: DX5e und DX6i Sender die mit der DSMX Funktion aufgerüstet wurden, sind mit allen DSMX Empfängern kompatibel , mit Ausnahme den ultraschnellen DSM2 Empfängern wie zum Beispiel: AR7610, AR9010. Wenn Sie so einen ultraschnellen Empfänger mit einer DX5e oder DX6i verwenden, ist es erforderlich diese Sender manuell in den DSM2 Mode zu bringen. Bitte sehen Sie für weitere Details auf der Spektrum Website unter DX5e und DX6i DSM2 Mode nach.
