WARNING
ALWAYS REMEMBER TO STORE THE PASSWORD IN A SECURE LOCATION FOR ACCESS IF THE
PASSWORD IS LOST OR FORGOTTEN. ONCE THE TRANSMITTER IS PROGRAMMED WITH A PASSWORD,
THERE IS NO WAY TO DEFEAT THE PASSWORD WITHOUT USING THE RCP SOFTWARE TO EITHER READ
THE PASSWORD OR REPROGRAM A NEW PASSWORD.
WARNING
THIS PASSWORD FUNCTION IS NOT TO BE USED AS A SECURITY DEVICE. THE PURPOSE OF THIS
FUNCTION IS TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL CHANGES TO THE TRANSMITTER SETTINGS. THE BEST FORM OF
SECURITY IS ALWAYS TO LOCK UP THE TRANSMITTER WHEN NOT IN SERVICE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS
WARNING COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
The password default setting is to be disabled during initial programming by the RCP software. To enable
password protection, check the box next to the phase “Activate password.”
WARNING
NOT ENABLING THE PASSWORD FUNCTION ALLOWS THE TRANSMITTER SETTINGS TO BE MODIFIED BY
ANY UNAUTHORIZED USERS. IMPROPER TRANSMITTER SETTINGS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY
OR DEATH AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
Backlight Enable
This section allows the user to enable the LCD display backlight and select the period of time after
transmitter activity that the backlight stays on.
The user has the option to check the “Always On” check boxed for backlight timeout. If this box is
checked, the backlight will remain on continuously while the transmitter is active.
NOTE: The longer the backlight is turned on, the shorter the transmitter battery life will be.
The user can also enable the backlight to turn off or timeout after a period of time - the user can select the
custom field and enter in the time (in seconds) that the backlight should be lit. The range of values is 1 to
30 seconds.
Update Transmitter Date/Time
This feature allows the user to reset the internal clock on the transmitter to the correct date and time. The
user can select to match the clock on the PC that is connected to the unit or select a custom date and
time.
