WARNING
Initializing the VR4-UWM will erase
the receiver’s memory.
Retrieve
all detection logs before the
VR4-UWM is initialized.
CAUTION:
Verify the receiver you are communicating
with is
the intended unit
, particularly before
initializing and erasing receiver memory files, or data
could be lost. Bluetooth communication can occur
with any
Bluetooth®
wireless technology activated
VEMCO receiver within range.
WARNING
Incorrectly changing the Advanced
Settings can prevent the VR4-UWM
from hearing your tags. Only do so
under VEMCO’s direction.
How do I know the VR4-UWM is recording?
Watch the Status Light. Two quick, bright
flashes every 5 seconds indicate the VR4-UWM
is in Record Mode.
