Exclamation JR DMSS RX binding plug polarity

it amesing me why JR which is my faivorite in the past 15 yrs, are lack of simple technical common sense...?!

in the manual for the DMSS radio and RX's, the binding procedure is so blure...why?

it is mentioned that "make sure to insert the binding plug in the coreect polarity"...what is the corect polarity?

i know by know after i nearly burned out a 150$ RX!!!


JR/ Horizon
would it be more smart to make a nice simple electrical schmatic with the correct polarity so dummys like my self wont burn thier expencive RX's??

polarity as follows:

the (-) pin, and the signal pin sould be shorted togather on the binding terminal!

As the outside wires are connected, there is no electrical polarity factor. The binding plug has two chamfer edges to mate with the receiver’s slots. So if you plug it in wrong, you may possibly do physical harm to the receiver case. This could also happen if you plug the servos connectors in upside down.

other binding plugs are using the (+) or 2 signals for different channels...

Gadi,

You stated "
"i know by know after i nearly burned out a 150$ RX!!!"
This is not possible because as Allan said electricaly the bind plug is symetrical.
You only have to line up the chamfer edges - if you have used JR for 15 years you know this anyway
Even if you get it the wrong way you will not "burn-out" the Rx
I don't understand why you need a schematic ?? - just looking at the bind plug shows you all you need to know.

Steve,
 
I think both you and I misunderstood what Gadi was saying. He has a point. If you have only one JR unit and misplaced the binding plug, it would be nice if the manual would expressly show how to make one.
 
Like you, I was thinking he thought the plug did something more than shorting the signal to the ground.

you are correct
this whay i ment...
if i buy a 700$ radio, i expect that the manual will be more detailed than a Turnegy HK radio...

Shalom to All

Allen, thanks for the clarification

Gadi, appologies for the confusion on my part.
I have used Spektrum/JR DSM2 for many years & now JR DMSS so have many bind plugs around. If I only had one bind plug then I agree it's an issue
Here's a link on how to make a bind plug - Spektrum in this case but the plug principle is the same for DMSS
