Binding satellite receivers can be a tricky process, to find the combination of bind pulses and protocols that produces a good signal. This difficultly comes from the fact the protocol is not well documented, nor are the receivers. If possible, it is much easier to use the traditional bind procedure your transmitter recommends with the satellite attached to a standard receiver.

This is a list of known good combinations, originally sourced from the OpenPilot wiki

Transmitter Transmitter settings Satellite Receiver Port setting DSMxBind value Result
DX8 Frame rate DSMx Spektrum DSMX DSMX (11-bit) 9 8 channels

Dx7s Frame rate DSMx/ 11ms Spektrum DSMx DSMX(11-bit) 9 7 Channels

The JR DSM2 is fully compatible with the Spektrum DSM2, so the settings should be identical.
