s a handheld R.F. transmitter capable of
sending up to sixteen 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 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
PROGRAMMING on page 2.
GENERAL OPERATION
This transmitter sends up to 16 independent commands. Each button
sends an RF Code for that channel. Button 1 transmits channel 1
commands, button 2 transmits channel 2 commands etc. To send
commands 9 thru 16, the P/Shift button must be used. As noted under
CONTROLS & INDICATORS, the P/Shift button serves two purposes. As
the “P” button, it allows you to program the transmitter to operate on a
different frequency. As the “Shift” button, it allows you to send commands
9 thru 16 to the receiver.
To use as the “P” button, you must press and hold the button for
approximately 5 seconds to enter programming mode. (See
PROGRAMMING section for more details).
To use as the “Shift” button, press the P/Shift button momentarily. The TX
LED will begin to flash rapidly indicating you’re in the Shift mode. While in
shift mode pressing buttons 1 thru 8 transmit the higher numbered code
for that button. The transmitter will stay in the Shift mode as long as
buttons are being depressed within 10 seconds of one another. During
this time, the TX LED gives visual confirmation that you’re in Shift mode
by continuously flashing GREEN/RED rapidly. After 10 seconds has
elapsed with no buttons depressed, the transmitter will revert back to
standard mode and the TX LED will extinguish. If, while in Shift mode, you
wish to transmit a button 1 thru 8 command and don’t want to wait for the
Shift mode to time out, you can simply press the P/Shift button
momentarily to revert back to the standard mode.

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.
Pushbuttons
1 thru 8
Transmit channel 1 thru 8 commands to the receiver
Pushbutton
P/Shift
The P/Shift button performs two functions:
1. If button is depressed momentarily and another
button is then pressed within 10 seconds, the higher
code for that button is transmitted. This allows for
transmission of pushbutton codes 9 thru 16.
2. If button is depressed for longer than 5 seconds,
the transmitter will enter “programming” mode. See
PROGRAMMING section.
