Within range of base station:
The wireless remote display/keypad must be
used within 250 ft. (assuming the signal will have to travel through walls) or
500 ft. (line of sight) from the AQL2-BASE-RF Base Station which is typically
mounted on the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic main control unit at the pool equip-
ment pad. The base station can also be mounted up to 500 ft. away from the
main control unit to shorten the distance between it and any wireless remote.
See the "Remote Mounting of the Base Station" section of the base station
manual for more details.

Powering the AQL2-Tx-RF-PS-x/AQL2-Tx-RF-P-4:
These models use a re-
chargeable built-in battery pack which will require an initial charge when you
first receive the unit. Charge the unit for at least 15 hours before attempting to
use it without the charger. Note that both units can be used normally while
connected to the charger.
Charging the battery:
Plug the included wall mount charger into a standard 120VAC wall outlet,
away from the pool area. It is not recommended that you use an extension
cord with this product. Plug the power connector into the rear of the AQL2-
Tx-RF-PS-x or AQL2-Tx-RF-P-4 and charge for 15 hours. A fully charged
battery will provide over 400 one-minute uses under typical conditions.
About battery power:
When the charger is not plugged into the AQL2-Tx-RF-PS-x or AQL2-Tx-RF-
P-4, the unit uses battery power and will take steps to extend battery life.
After one minute of no button presses by the user, the unit will show a brief
display and will go into "sleep" mode (pg. 5). To wake it up, simply press
any button on the keypad. The button press will not perform any function
except waking the unit. Once awake, any subsequent button presses will
perform their normal functions.
When the charger is plugged in, the unit uses wall power while it also charges
the battery. It will always be "awake", as long as it's plugged into the
charger.
Note that the battery will slowly lose charge if the unit is not plugged into
the wall, even if it is not used. The battery will need to be charged every 1 -
2 months, depending on usage.
The AQL2-Tx-RF-PS-x and AQL2-Tx-RF-P-4 will display a series of informa-
tion about its status and the status of the battery. Refer to the "Operation"
section of this manual for an explanation of each of these displays.

Teach Wireless Fail.
Please try again.
This is usually caused by a button being held down for more than 3 seconds,
falsely triggering the Teach Wireless mode. It can also be displayed if the Pro
Logic/Aqua Logic is not in the Teach Wireless mode. If the Pro Logic/Aqua
Logic is in Teach Wireless, then the radio signal may be too weak—try moving
closer to the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic main control unit base station.
