How can I connect two REX receivers together and use EX Bus for backup to each other?
All REX receivers have two fully programable inputs/outputs (E1 and E2). If you want to use two independent receivers with servo outputs in the model using REX type receivers, it is possible to set them for mutual backup. If one of the receivers loses the signal, the other receiver will fully back it up with serial EX Bus communication.
How to correctly connect a backup receiver to the REX receiver via EX Bus serial line.
Pair both receivers with the DC/DS transmitter in the Double Path mode (or set the backup receiver to CLONE mode). All REX receivers are equipped with fully adjustable inputs E1 and E2. Select for one of these inputs in the settings EX Bus input/backup (min. irmware version REX 1.13 and REX Assist 1.12). In the main receiver you can set Fail-Safe for servos (we recommend at least lowering the throttle down). In the backup receiver please disable Fail-Safe function and set up the output to EX Bus mode.
For the Rsat2 satellite receivers the EX Bus signal is generated at the Ext. output. On the contrary, the Rsat900 receivers are equipped with fully adjustable E1 and E2 outputs.
