8.The LCD display has a backlight fea-

ture which may be activated by pressing
and releasing the BANK button. The
backlight remains illuminated for 10 sec-
onds after the last button press.

F actory Settings

As  supplied  from  the  factory, t h e

transmitter default settings are set to the
following:

• All channels are set to -2 f-stops .

•  Channel 1 is  set to "ON" .

•  Channels 2-16 are set to "OFF" .

These default settings may be recalled

from the internal memory at any time by
pressing and holding the BANK button
then pressing the ON button. When
performing this function,the bargraph on
the  LCD  will  instantaneously  "kick"
upwards.

Last Scene Memor

y

The RadioRemote One transmitter

contains EEprom memory which auto-
matically stores the current settings
each time the transmitter goes into
"Sleep" mode (after two minutes of
non-use). Thus, if the batteries fail or
need to be changed during a session
you will not lose the settings.

If you desire to force the storage

of current setting (for instance when
changing batteries in a hurry) this
can be accomplished by pressing and
holding the BANK

button while

pressing the single arrow FLASH -
POWER UP

button.

Recalling  the  settings  stored  in

memory is accomplished by holding
the BANK

button while pressing

the  single arrow FLASHPOWER
DOWN 
button. Recalling the previ-
ously stored settings in this manner
can serve as an "UNDO" function
in the event you make a serious pro-
gramming mistake (but you must do
so within two minutes or the mistake
will be stored as the current setting).

When loading a scene to memory

or recalling a scene, the bargraph on
the LCD display will instantaneously
"kick" upwards to indicate this func-
tion.

The  batteries  may  be  re m ove d

i n d e f i n i t e ly  from  the  transmitter
without  erasing  the    last  scene
stored in EEprom.

Setting the Transmitter Bank

1.While holding down the BANK

button,press the CHANNEL up or
down buttons to cause the desired
BANK  number to be indicated in
the BANK  window of the display.
This Bank setting will remain once
you release the Bank button. Note
the transmitter and all associated
receivers must be set to the same
Bank number for proper operation.
