Default Futaba 3PM + LRP Sphere ESC

Having a problem I hope someone can straighten out.

System is brand new, using LRP Sphere Competition TC ESC and Futaba 3PM TX/RX. When I turn on the power to the system, I have control with the steering servo but nothing from the throttle. If I put the steering servo into the throttle channel, the servo responds so I know the RX is ok.

I cannot get the ESC into setup mode. The SET button isn't broken as I can enter MOD and the SET button lets me make changes there. But when I turn on the ESC, the blue LED stays lit. I hold the SET button down for any length of time and it never enters setup mode so I can set the throttle. The pack is fully charged. The motor is the Vector X11.

Hoping somebody can shed some light.
