3.3 STATIONARY MODE
See section
3.3.3
for viewing the stationary flowchart. The stationary mode has a low battery indicator. The LOW /
BAT indicator will show in the display when the internal battery voltage is below 11.5V. If external power is
connected to the receiver, the internal batteries are not used, and the low battery indicator would be for the external
power supply. The R4500S checks the battery voltage level each time the frequency table has been scanned
through.
If power is interrupted during a Stationary Scan, the R4500S will remember it was in Stationary Scan mode and will
automatically resume the Stationary Scan when power is restored. The values used for the Stationary Setup will
still be stored in memory and they will be the values used when resuming the stationary scan.

The number entered here should represent the total number of pulse rates you are using in your study. There
should not be more than one transmitter per frequency. If you need to use multiple transmitters per frequency you
should consider using a coded receiver and coded transmitters.
