USING THE TRANSMITTER IN SETUP MODE 

 

The Setup Mode can be used to edit configuration settings such as: Access Code, Channel 
Select, User Code, Transmitter Time Out, Backlight Time Out, Password Enable, Change 
Password, and more.  The settings can still be changed with the optional RCP software. 
 

NOTE:  No parameter changes will take effect until the user has selected ‘Save and Exit’ from the 
Setup Mode. 

 

4.1 

ENTERING SETUP MODE 

 

To enter the Setup Mode, first make sure the unit is OFF and the Machine Stop switch is raised.  
Next, push the OFF-ON-START toggle switch to the START position and hold it in the START 
position for more than 5 seconds until the setup screen appears.   
 
The user will see a prompt for a four digit password if the password feature is enabled.   If no 
password is enabled, then the adjustments in Section 4.2 will be available with no further input 
required from the user. 
 
Use the Joystick/Paddle to increase/decrease the value and toggle to the START position when 
finished.  If the password is entered correctly, the device will enter Setup Mode.  If it is entered 
incorrectly, the device will power down. 
 

NOTE: The factory default password to get into the setup menu is 

0000

 

4.2 

ADJUSTING SETTINGS IN SETUP MODE 

 
To navigate through Setup Mode, the Joystick/Paddle designated (MTN 1) and OFF-ON-START 
switch are used.  The Joystick/Paddle cycles through the menus and is also used to change 
parameters within the menus.  Pushing the OFF-ON-START switch to the START position will 
toggle between the menu and its parameter(s). When adjusting larger values, the speed is 
dependent on how far the Joystick/Paddle is depressed. 
 

NOTE:  No parameter changes will take effect until the user has selected ‘Save and Exit’ from the 
Setup Mode. 

 

4.2.1 Access 

Code 

The Access Code determines which receiver will be controlled by the transmitter.   
 
The Access Code in the XLTX transmitter must match the receiver Access Code or DIP switches. 
 
If the Access Codes settings on the receiver and transmitter do not match, no communication will 
occur.   
 
The Access Code is a 20-bit binary value with a decimal equivalent of 0 - 1048575.  It will be 
displayed as binary or decimal depending on the application.   
 

4.2.2 Channel 

Select 

The Channel Select setting determines the frequency on which the XLTX is operating.   
 
The user can select channels 1 through 32, which correspond to the frequencies in Sections 6.2 
and 6.3.
