Screw antenna onto the top connector of the signal receiver and tighten the antenna nut. Attach 
the signal receiver to a steel plate located on the top of the tripod via a magnet. The magnet is 
located on the bottom of the signal receiver

It is recommended to place the signal receiver is the same height as the photocells for a better 
radio signal.

A multicolour LED light

 is placed on the top of the 

signal receiver:

1.

 Blue flashing light

 = active and correct communication 

with all turned on photocells. 

2. 

Blue

/

Red 

flashing light = at least one of the photocells 

in not communicating with the TSS computer software 
(e.g. the photocell is turned off or the communication 
channel, frequency range or the photocell number does 
not correspond to the setting in the TSS computer 
software)

3. 

Red continuous light

 = After clicking “Connect” in the 

TSS computer software, the continuous red light 
indicates no communication between the signal receiver 
and the photocells (e.g. the photocells are turned off).
