menu item and press down on the rotary selector knob a single time to
access the options menu.
2. To turn on FOXBANG, enter the FOXBANG OPTIONS menu and then
select the desired feature that you would like FOXBANG to engage. To
turn off FOXBANG, select the FOXBANG OFF option from the menu.
NOTE:
When FOXBANG is turned on and your sensitivity rating set, the TX-505 will
remember the sensitivity setting and FOXBANG will automatically be activated the
next time you perform a power cycle. If you do not wish to have FOXBANG active
the next time you turn on the TX-505, you must go into the FOXBANG menu item
and turn it off.
FOXBANG OPTIONS
FOXBANG can be setup to activate one of four possible features. You can
have it emulate an auxiliary button press, activate preset 1 or 2, or toggle mute
status. The mapped function for FOXBANG is established by selecting the
appropriate option from the FOXBANG OPTIONS menu.
SELECTING YOUR SENSITIVITY
Your TX-505 has 5 sensitivity ratings; Highest, High, Medium, Low, and
Lowest. From the Main Menu on your TX-505, select the FOXBANG item and
the select the FOXBANG ADJUST menu item (see image below). Highlight the
desired sensitivity rating and press down on the rotary selector knob to set it. If
you are using a large caliber (.30-06), you would want to select a lower
sensitivity. If using a smaller firearm (such as .17HMR or .22), use the higher
sensitivity. Medium settings should be suitable for .17 Fireball, .223, .22-250,
etc.
NOTE:
An unintended and unavoidable consequence of adjusting the FOXBANG
sensitivity to high levels is that handling noises, such as banging of the transmitter case
on your firearm stock, may cause unexpected activation of FOXBANG. For this reason,
you should choose the lowest sensitivity that affords reliable activation from the muzzle
blast. FOXBANG is intended to work when the transmitter is located within about 5 feet
of the firearm muzzle.
UNMUTE PRESET FB
In the FOXBANG configuration menu, you can enable the UNMUTE PRESET
FB function which allows FOXBANG to bring the unit out of a muted state on
preset activation. This means that if you have FOXBANG enabled and the unit
is muted, when FOXBANG detects the discharge of the firearm it will bring the
unit out of the muted state and switch to P1. If not enabled, FOXBANG will be
unable to bring the unit out of a muted state upon reacting to the discharge of
the firearm.
