Designed and Developed in UK.
ERP (effective radiated power) = -8 dBm max
The MX Receiver requires 3 x LR6 AA 1.5V Alkaline batteries. The use of
good quality batteries is essential for maximum battery life. To reduce the
risk of battery leakage:
• DO NOT mix old and new batteries
• DO NOT mix different battery types
• The use of rechargeable batteries is NOT recommended
Please ensure the batteries are removed from the Micron during long
periods without use.
NEVER place batteries in a hot environment (e.g. on a radiator).
The MX Receiver has been designed to be weatherproof. However, if exposed to
heavy rain, it is important to allow the unit to dry out properly by bringing the unit
indoors and allowing to dry fully.
• Do not trigger LED or speaker in close proximity to human or animal eyes
and ears.
• Store this equipment out of reach of children and infants.
• Avoid dropping or subjecting the Micron to severe impacts.
• Operating frequency = 433.92MHz

• To activate the unit rotate dial
clockwise until you hear a click.
• All the LED’s will cycle colours briefly.
• Rotate the dial clockwise to increase
the speaker volume.
• To deactivate the unit rotate fully
counter clockwise to the ‘OFF’
position.
When the receiver is used for the first time, it is necessary to
“register” the bite alarms that it will be used with, so that the receiver
can “learn” their unique identification codes.
Before starting this procedure, ensure all your bite alarms
are switched OFF, then proceed as follows: –
1. Switch MX Receiver “ON.”
2. Using a small pointed object
press the registration button
on the back of the receiver
until the leftmost LED starts
to flash. Release the button.
3. Now simply switch on each
Micron in the order you would like
them to appear on the receiver.
4. When complete press the registration button
again on the back of the receiver, or switch unit off.
If you would like to change the order of the
Microns, or add more to your setup please repeat
the above sequence.
Note: The registration process can be disrupted if
attempted in close proximity to other radio signals
such as wireless routers.
The operating range of the MX receiver, like all low power radio systems, is
highly dependant on the conditions of use and can be adversely affected by
the position of both transmitter and receiver, the terrain over which it is being
used, the prevailing atmospheric conditions and the presence of any
interfering signals.
To obtain best performance, it is recommended that you –
• Keep the MX receiver as high above ground as possible –
if worn on the body, it should be worn as high as possible and on the outside
of your clothing.
• Try to keep a direct “line-of-sight” between the receiver and transmitter –
obstructions such as trees, buildings, etc may cause loss of signal, or
reflections of the signal, resulting in “dead spots”.
• Do not keep the MX receiver in the same pocket as a mobile phone, or other
electronic device.
• Ensure both your receiver and your alarms have good batteries.
All the above hints become progressively less important, as the working range
is reduced. Remember to use the system responsibly – the MX receiver has
been designed to give a long operating range in order to maximise reliability
at close range and NOT to encourage users to leave their rods in the water
unattended.
Please fish responsibly!

When the MX Receiver batteries are low the LEDs will flash cyan
(blue-green) periodically. When this occurs, batteries should be
replaced at the earliest opportunity.
The MX Receiver will also indicate if any your MX Alarms
batteries are low. When the alarm low battery warning changes
the microns LED colour to cyan (blue-green) the receiver will do
the same for that alarm.
