4.3 Prosedur Pengikatan

To establish a connection between the R9M module and an R9 series receiver, a binding procedure is necessary. Refer to your specific R9 series receiver manual for detailed binding instructions, as steps may vary slightly depending on the receiver model and firmware (ACCST/ACCESS).

Generally, the process involves putting both the transmitter (with R9M module) and the receiver into bind mode. The R9M module typically has a bind button or a menu option on the transmitter to initiate binding.

4.4 Kemas Kini Perisian Tegar

The R9M module and R9 series receivers may require firmware updates for optimal performance and compatibility. Firmware updates are performed via the Smart Port interface. Visit the official FrSky website for the latest firmware versions and detailed update procedures.

5. Arahan Operasi

5.1 RF Power Selection

The R9M module allows selection of different RF power outputs. This is typically configured through your transmitter's menu system. Choose an appropriate power level based on your flight environment and range requirements. Higher power levels provide greater range but consume more battery power.

For EU LBT versions, available modes include Telemetry (25mW) and non-telemetry (200mW / 500mW). For Flex versions, options include 10mW, 100mW, 500mW, and 1W, all supporting telemetry.

5.2 Telemetry Functionality

The R9M system supports telemetry, allowing real-time feedback of flight data (e.g., battery voltage, RSSI) to your transmitter. Ensure your R9 series receiver and R9M module are configured for telemetry and that any necessary sensors are connected to the Smart Port.

The following video demonstrates how to display airplane battery voltage telemetry on a compatible RadioLink AT9S Pro transmitter, which uses a similar telemetry concept:

5.3 Simulator Use

The R9M module can be used with flight simulators for practice. This typically involves connecting your transmitter to a computer via a USB dongle or simulator cable. Ensure your transmitter is set to the correct mode for simulator use.

The following video demonstrates the plug-and-play setup for a RadioLink AT9S Pro transmitter with a simulator, which can be adapted for the FrSky R9M system:

6. Keserasian

The FrSky R9M 2019 module is compatible with FrSky R9 series receivers. It supports both ACCST and ACCESS protocols. Ensure that your transmitter's firmware and receiver's firmware are compatible with the chosen protocol.
