AIM provides two kinds of infrared transmitters.
•
the lap transmitter;
•
the split transmitter; this one emits a different signal and MXL recognizes it.
The transmitter can be internally or externally powered:
•
internally: with 8 AA batteries (placed in the transmitter case); when battery
charge status is low, Power led starts blinking each second (1 Hz);
•
externally: with an external 12V power cable; when battery charge status is low,
Power led starts blinking each second.
The transmitter has two working mode:
•
Low power mode: for tracks less than 10 m (30 ft) wide;
•
High power mode: for tracks more than 10 m (30 ft) wide; in this second case
12V external power is required and both led switches on when the transmitter is
switched on.
