I get a red Status LED signal at Receiver menu point B

Red Status LED at menu point B shows that the system is not receiving valid channel data or no data at all. This can have several reasons:

  • Check that you've selected the correct receiver type / transmission protocol at Receiver menu point A.
  • Make sure the receiver's output is connected properly to CH5/DI1 input of MICROBEAST / MICROBEAST PLUS.
  • Make sure the transmitter is bound to the receiver and the receiver is receiving control signals from the transmitter. Keep some distance between receiver and transmitter.
  • Some Spektrum SRXL receivers require a special firmware (MICROBEAST PLUS only) which can decode the signals of these receivers. These receivers use a very unique coding which is not conform to the SRXL standards.


When using a SRXL receiver we offer a free software to download that allows to connect your receiver to the computer with the USB2SYS interface adapter. With this SRXLViewer software you can make the output of your receiver visible and analyze the data output (if there is any), so you can find out why MICROBEAST does not accept the incoming signal. At the moment this software is only available for Microsoft Windows, you can get it here (click).

Just unzip the folder to somewhere on the Harddisk and start the .exe file (or it even should run from winrar, winzip, whatever, when opening it there).

Connect the receiver's SRXL port directly to the USB2SYS interface. The receiver needs some receiver battery or similar power source. In the software select the COM port of the interface and click connect. Then you should see data output like this.


When the CRC is not correct or the data output is delayed or interrupted probably there is something not correct with the signal coming from your receiver. When there is no data output please contact the manufacturer of your radio system.
