How does the DSC cable work? What do you plug into at the receiver?

For proper DSC hook up and operation:
1. Leave the transmitter power switch in the OFF position. The
transmitter will not transmit any radio frequency (RF) in this
position.
2. Plug the DSC cord (optional) into the DSC port in the rear of
the transmitter.
3. The encoder section of the transmitter will now be
operational and the LCD display will be lit.
4. Plug the other end of the DSC cord into the receiver charge
receptacle. Turn the switch harness to the ON position.
Note: The DSC function will only operate with the JRPA001
Deluxe Switch Harness, or the JRPA004 Charge Switch.
When you install the charging jack, be sure to hook the
charging jack receptacle securely into the switch harness charge
cord.
Why you should use the DSC function:
1. The DSC enables you to check the control surfaces of your
airplanes without drawing the fully operational 200 mAh from
your transmitter battery pack. Instead, you will only draw 70
mAh when using the DSC function.
2. The DSC function allows you to make final adjustments to
your airplane without transmitting any radio signals. Therefore, if
another pilot is flying on your frequency, you can still adjust your
airplane and not interfere with the other pilot’s aircraft.
Note: Under no circumstances should you attempt to fly your
airplane with the DSC cord plugged in! This function is for
bench checking your airplane only.
