dip switch settings?
« on: April 24, 2012, 12:39:06 PM »
Hi folks,

got a question about DIP switch settings.  I followed the instructions on my new 2.4 Rx/Tx to set the channels, but I haven't got a stable picture yet.  I did get something fuzzy but so that I could see my OSD (barely) but it's presumably down to dip switch combinations.  Question is, on the attached diagram, does black indicate the position of the actual switch tab, or white?

Upside down  ;)

Well OK not entirely certain but I think they printed the switch pics upside down so try reversing each switch

oh mate, i had the same issue.

just a warning... for a given channel, the dip switch "pattern" is not the same on the VTX and the VRX

I just left the VTX on the channel it came on, and kept changing the VRX channel till I got a picture. took a while though

yeah I know that, annoyingly, the dip switch pattern is different between the manual and the sticker on the blooming Rx as well!

Will just have to go through patterns tonight until it works I guess :(  Spent about 30 mins on it last night and gave up.

black indicates where the switch should be! so for channel 8 on the tx you have the first 3 down on the numbers side and the last one up away from the numbers!

the attached diagram shows the rx channels, my RX has a sticker on the back to show the dip settings
