batteries are typically not difficult to find either, as they are frequently used
in calculators and cameras.
To reassemble the transmitter, simply reverse the disassembly procedure.
After installing new batteries into the carousel, slide it into the transmitter‟s
body. Be sure that you replace the battery carousel in the proper
orientation. The carousel is clearly marked as to which end should be left
facing out when you drop it into the transmitter, as shown in Figure 73.
Please be sure that once the batteries have been installed that you can see
the text “
THIS END OUT
” on the side of the battery hold that is facing outward
Once the battery carousel has been placed correctly into the transmitter, place the cap of the unit
back into place. If you find it difficult to reinstall the cap, check the O-Ring for lubrication. If
the O-Ring is dry, bare rubber, apply some Vaseline or other petroleum based jelly to it and to
the inside of the transmitter body where the O-Ring meets. This should remedy the problem.
Screw the cap back in place with the five screws.
The transmitter should now be transmitting its magnetic signal. Please take a moment to verify
that it is operating correctly by checking its signal with the CD42-R receiver. This step is
especially important prior to launch – please do not launch a transmitter into a line without
verifying that it is transmitting properly.
