OFF
When this button is released, the transmitter will be switched off.
STOP
While depressed, this button sends a STOP command to the receiver. The transmitter does not need to be
actively ‘ON’ to send this command. When this button is released, the transmitter will be switched off.
6.2.3 Auto OFF
The transmitter will turn itself off if no commands have been sent for a predetermined time. This time may be set
for up to 60 minutes; however, it is normally disabled. Programming from 0 to 60 minutes or disabling it can be
accomplished using a RAC16 Series Programmer (1 to 60 = minutes, 0 = disabled).

Transmitter Troubleshooting
The transmitters have an LED status indicator to aid in troubleshooting. Due to the rough treatment it may be
subjected to, most problems are likely to occur in the transmitter. The transmitter should be thoroughly diagnosed
before proceeding to the receiver.
WARNING
When testing the transmitter, the receiver can become active and cause system operation. Always
assume the system is working and will respond when testing a transmitter.
