14MZ won't link to receivers

[r1sportbike]

I have a new 14MZ and I cannot get the TX to synthesize to the 2 receivers. I got them to link once with a DSC cord, but when I went back hours later, nothing.
What am I doing wrong?

Kevin,
Do not turn on the RX when the signal is transmitting till at least after the first beep or lightening bolt goes across the screen. Also flourescent lights seem to affect the transfer some times also. Wireless systems may also affect the transfer.

You do have the correct reciever ID number in the transmitter?

I think my wireless system had some effect. It works fine away from home.

Thanks David

I have a wireless network and had to turn of the computer close to the receiver to get it to program to the radio.

Any yes, the G3 receiver is very sensitive to RF interference from anyting.

So no flourecent, wireless network, or wireless hom phones active when your are programming the receiver.

Thank u all

Now its working :lol:

Yes if I am trying to do it in my house my wireless netowrk messes with it. In that case just use the DSC cord supplied with the radio.

I dont understand how the receiver number has anything to do with the setup.
I only have one G3 but I did see a guy doing some range testing with G3 recveivers at the same time and both worked. If the number has to be in there how could this happen?

[Phaedrus]

The receiver ID must be entered when you select PCM2048 as the modulation type when setting the channel. This is how the receiver knows which TX is talking to it when changing channels. It has no bearing at all on the operation. So any other TX on the same channel as your RX (or RXs) will see interference from that other TX. But another 14MZ TX cannot change the channel on your RX since it does not have the correct ID entered.

In G3 ( 2048 PCM) mode. the transmitter can control two receivers. Provided that both ID numbers from each receiver are entered into the transmitter. The receivers would then be set on the same channel when any frequency change happens.

If the correct receiver ID is not entered into the transmitter. The channel on the receiver can never be changed. The transmitter will not be able to communicate to the receiver to change the channel without the correct ID number.

Ok so the id number has nothing to do with it receiving anything but the changing of the channels. You can not change the channel without the number in the trans.

[Phaedrus]

Correct. 1 RX or 2, you have to have the RX ID number(s) entered into your TX if using the G3 RXs. Otherwise you will not be able to change the frequency.
