5.1. Электр схемасы

Connect the receiver to your flight controller according to the following diagram. Ensure correct polarity for power connections (GND, 5V) and proper assignment for serial communication (TX, RX).

Сүрөт 5.1: Wiring diagram showing connections for the HGLRC ELRS Gemini RX receiver (GND, 5V, TX2, RX2) and a Specter flight controller (10V, GND, CAM, BB-, LED, 5V, GND, TX1, RX1, VTX).

• GND: Жерге туташтыруу.
• 5В: Power input (5 Volts).
• TX: Transmitter data output from receiver (connect to RX on flight controller).
• RX: Receiver data input to receiver (connect to TX on flight controller).

5.2. Байлоо жол-жобосу

To bind your HGLRC ELRS Gemini RX receiver to your ExpressLRS transmitter, follow these steps:

1. Power on your receiver three times in quick succession. The LED on the receiver should start flashing with an orange double flash, indicating it is in binding mode.
2. Ensure your ExpressLRS transmitter module is also in binding mode. Refer to your transmitter's manual for specific instructions.
3. Once the receiver and transmitter successfully bind, the receiver's LED will turn solid, indicating a stable connection.

Эскертүү: If the RGB LED flashes orange three times after binding, it indicates that the model matching settings do not align. You may need to adjust the Model Match (ID:X) setting on your remote control (SYS → TOOLS → ExpressLRS → Model Match ON (ID:X)) or set it to Model Match OFF (ID:X).

5.3. Микропрограмманы жаңыртуу

The HGLRC ELRS Gemini RX uses ExpressLRS firmware. For optimal performance and access to the latest features, it is recommended to keep your receiver's firmware updated. Firmware updates are typically performed via the ExpressLRS Configurator. Connect the receiver to your computer using a USB-to-UART adapter (not included) and follow the instructions provided by the ExpressLRS project.

6.1. Индикатордун абалы

The receiver features an RGB LED that indicates its current status. Understanding these indicators is crucial for proper operation and troubleshooting.

Сүрөт 6.1: Table detailing the RGB LED indicator status descriptions and a color gradient for 2.4G refresh rates on the HGLRC ELRS Gemini RX.

* If RGB orange flashes three times, you can enter the remote control SYS → TOOLS → ExpressLRS → Model Match ON (ID:X), or set it to Model Match OFF (ID:X).

6.2. Refresh Rate Indication

When the receiver is connected, the steady LED color indicates the current refresh rate. Refer to the color gradient provided in Image 6.1 for specific refresh rate interpretations (e.g., F1000, F500, D500, D250, 500Hz, 333Hz, 250Hz, 150Hz, 100Hz, 50Hz).

Эскертүү: F1000 and F500 are refresh rates in FLRC mode, offering faster modulation and lower latency. D500 and D250 are refresh rates in DVDA (Deja Vu Diversity A/D) mode, suitable for competition, where the receiver sends the same data packet multiple times for enhanced reliability.
