Wireless Troubleshooting
The following section suggests possible solutions to problems you may
encounter, including radio frequency interference, or other radio trans-
mission problems.
Radio Frequency Interference
Under normal circumstances, other wireless signals, such as a nearby cel-
lular phone relay tower, should not jam the wireless SP-70 during a sport-
ing event. The control’s radio signal is redundantly transmitted 16 times
across a wide bandwidth using Spread Spectrum Technology - regardless
of what channel or transmit mode your control is set to. Spread Spectrum
Technology provides a high level of reliability, and is designed to hinder
interference effects from cellular phones, cordless devices, microwaves
and other Radio Frequency devices, as well as provide security from signal
jamming.
However, wireless reception cabability can be affected by unrelated Radio
Frequency traffic in the area. As “stray” signals increase, reception range
may decrease.
In the unlikely event that you think you are experiencing Radio Frequency
interference, we recommend that you change channels, which should
eliminate any problems.
Note: The Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) has certified that Fair-Play’s wireless SP-70 device
will not cause harmful interference to other FCC-
approved equipment.
