Default HW 100 Platinum wont arm?

I have over 100 flights on this ESC. I crashed last week and needed to swap frames. All electronics look as though they are okay.

I went to test the set-up after rebuilding and the ESC will not arm. i get a beep-pause-beep-pause, etc....

I went back and looked. I THINK I plugged everything back into the vbar as it should be. I have power from the ESC going into the vbar; sbus connection to the vbar from Rx

My guess is that I have to reprogram the end points for the ESC. Not really sure though.

Does this sound reasonable? Any other trouble shooting ideas?

Only two beeps and then it's silent?

Have you looked in the manual under trouble shooting? There is a section identifying the beeps for error codes

Beep, pause, beep, pause.....etc

Manual says "he throttle signal is irregular, lost, or corrupt. Check the receiver and transmitter.
Check the control cable of the ESC."

Not sure what i am supposed to check on the Rx and Tx or the control cable.

Problem solved (I think). Sbus to vbar jumper was not in the AUX channel on vbar.
