leak over time as the chemicals start to break down. Damages caused by this can be very severe
and potentially destroy the electrical components. To prevent this from happening, simply
remove all batteries from all devices before you put them away. Keep in mind; damage caused
by battery leakage is not a warranty issue.
Periodically charge your rechargeable batteries when not in use! Rechargeable batteries will
not last forever. To help maximize the overall life of your rechargeable batteries, we
recommend that you periodically charge them up, perhaps once a month or once every other
month, to keep them fresh. Batteries that are left uncharged can enter into a state of deep
discharge. Batteries in this state can, at times, no longer accept a charge and result in
unexpected operation or complete failure in the field. It is also recommended that you replace
rechargeable batteries about once a year just to keep them fresh.
Keep it clean! Our products are designed to be used outdoors and as a result, they can get dirty
from time to time. While the dirt may add a bit of character and show that you use it frequently
and hard, it is recommended that you spend a few moments after each hunt or at the end of
the season prior to storage to clean it up a bit. Total disassembly won’t be required, just remove
any debris, sticks, leaves, dirt, or anything else that shouldn’t be there. If dirt or foreign objects
make their way into the machine, it can cause problems down the road.
Store in a dry location! If you are planning on storing the unit away for the summer, it is
recommended to keep the unit in a dry location that is not prone to drawing moisture. It is also
recommended to remove all batteries prior to removal.
Check it out before heading into the field! If you are getting your caller out for the first time
this season, take it out back and check it out before you head out on a hunt. Check your remote
range, fidelity, high volume, low volume, battery life, etc. Being prepared and ensuring proper
functionality before heading out on a trip can help you decide if you need new batteries, if it
needs service, or if everything is working well. This can help prevent cancellation of trips and
potential disappointment.
10. Troubleshooting
This section will cover the troubleshooting aspects for the Scorpion X1A and TX200 remote
control.
The most common problems are battery related. Before performing anything else, try installing
fresh batteries. When your batteries get low, in either the Scorpion X1A or the TX200 remote,
unexpected operation can occur. You can experience such things as loss of audio quality, loss of
remote control range, and other abnormal results. Remember that the Scorpion X1A battery
holder accommodates 8 batteries and is double sided. When you are replacing batteries, do
not forget to change the 4 batteries on the underside.
