Binding a Spirit 2 to DSMX
first question: do the Sats go into bind mode or not? if yes => not a thing Spirit can influence 
try to increase the distance between the sats and the Tx during bind (> 1.5m). if it does not work try to bind using a Spektrum receiver and then connect again to Spirit. check 11/22ms setting etc in Tx... (btw: which Tx?)
nb: you do not bind a Spirit to DSMX, you do bind a DSMX sat to a (Spektrum?) Tx

Sorry, The issue is the DSMX Sat. will not go into bind mode.
I have a Spirit 2 . I plugged a DSMX sat. into sat port 1 with the cable that comes with the Sat. The Sat. will not go into bind mode, that is the issue. Yes, I can put the Spectrum Sat. into a Spektrum receiver and it will bind when attached to the Spektrum RX. But I can not get the DSMX sat to bind to the Spirit 2 unit in the way the instructions show.
Instructions are a little unclear. Never really tells me to turn off the Spirit 2 after turning it on, but then it says to turn it on with the bind plug... but it is already on. I must not understand it. I was not sure if binding the Sat. on a different RX then plugging it into the Spirit 2 to use was a good idea or not. It does talk when I do that, but not sure it is the way to go.

... did you follow the process described in the manual:
"To bind the satellites, insert a bind plug in the SYS port for DSM2 satellites or the ELE/PIT/AIL port for DSMX satellites. Power cycling the Spirit start the bind process. Once successfully bound, the STATUS LED will go out and the satellite LED will come on. If the second satellite fails to bind, swap the satellites and repeat the bind process.
Be sure Receiver type in the software is configured to Spektrum DSM2/X otherwise binding process will not work. Never plug a connector for powering the unit to SYS or ELE/PIT/AIL positions."
