1.0 QUICK OPERATING GUIDE
This manual will explain all features of your new FOXPRO Prairie Blaster in
depth to help ensure the best overall experience. We realize, however, that you
may want to try out the Prairie Blaster right away. The
Quick Operating Guide
will provide you the basic steps on how to get started.
It is strongly recommended that to fully understand the features and
abilities of your FOXPRO Prairie Blaster, that you read this manual in its
entirety.
1.1 INSTALLING BATTERIES IN YOUR PRAIRIE BLASTER
Since your Prairie Blaster is shipped from the factory with no batteries installed,
the first step is to install batteries. The Prairie Blaster requires 8 “D” batteries.
1. Remove the battery door.
The battery door is located on the side of
the caller and is held in place with a knurled thumbscrew
.
2. Orient the batteries as per the directions shown in each cavity within
the holder.
NOTE that the battery polarity alternates
.
3. Replace the battery door after the batteries are installed.
1.2 INSTALLING BATTERIES IN YOUR TX-505
The TX-505 transmitter operates from 3 “AA” batteries. Please use high
quality alkaline or lithium batteries.
1. Remove the battery compartment cover located on the rear of the
transmitter.
2. Insert the “AA” batteries into the provided cavities.
NOTE that the
battery polarity alternates.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover after the batteries are installed.
1.3 PLAYING SOUNDS MANUALLY
Your Prairie Blaster can be operated with or without using the TX-505
transmitter. There may be times when you want the sound of the unit right next
to you or perhaps you want to walk with the unit to create a traveling sound.
1. Make sure that at least one of the speaker selector slide switches is set
to the right, or “ON” position
2. Turn the On/Off/Volume knob clockwise to the “ON” position – you
should hear a soft click.
Please NOTE that this switch is also the
volume control when the unit is operated without the remote control.
The further clockwise you turn the knob, the louder the unit will play. At
this point, the LCD display on the PRAIRIE BLASTER will first display
the channel of operation, the software revision, and then display three
horizontal bars “---“.
3. Press the up or down arrow keypad button on the PRAIRIE BLASTER
