s a handheld R.F. transmitter capable of
sending up to four unique digital commands to an Air-Eagle SR
Receiver located up to 600 feet away. This model is equipped with a
vibrating feedback that confirms to the user that the transmitted signal
has reached the receiver. Any number of transmitters and receivers
can be combined to create a medium-range radio frequency system
that operates hazardous or hard-to-reach equipment from safe,
convenient locations. Eight user-programmable frequencies allow
multiple systems to operate simultaneously in the same area without
interference.
This transmitter will automatically go into “sleep” mode
when no buttons are being depressed on the unit to dramatically
extend battery life.
INITIAL OPERATION SET-UP
This transmitter comes factory set to frequency 1 and power level 4 (max
range of 600 feet). If you wish to change the default settings, follow the
instructions for FREQUENCY PROGRAMMING AND POWER LEVEL

CONTROLS & INDICATORS
TX LED
LED illuminates “
RED
” continuously while button is
depressed and unit is transmitting. When this LED blinks
briefly following a transmission, the battery needs to be
replaced.
See Note #1
Note #1
– The low battery notification signals have been improved to
provide more noticeable indications and to safely disable
communications BEFORE a low battery condition can corrupt internal
memory causing device failure. When a low battery is first detected,
the TX LED will blink several times after all buttons are released. If it is
possible to replace the batteries now, please do so. If not, the operator
has approximately 15 more button activations. During this time, when
a button is depressed and held, the TX LED will blink SLOWLY. The
slow blinking will continue several more times after all buttons are
released. Transmissions are still being sent to the receiver during this
time. When a button is depressed and the TX LED is RAPIDLY
blinking, the RF output is disabled and NO signal will reach the
receiver. The batteries MUST NOW BE REPLACED to resume
normal functions.
