FREQUENCY PROGRAMMING
Please read through these instructions completely before beginning
programming procedure!
At any time, you can check the current frequency setting by depressing
the P/Shift button, for approximately 5 seconds, until the TX LED is
illuminated
RED
. Then release the button and watch until the TX LED
begins to blink. The TX LED will blink
RED
one, two, three or four times
for Frequencies 1 thru 4, or will blink
GREEN
one, two or three times for
Frequencies 5 thru 7 accordingly. See table below for clarification.
LED Flashes:
Indicates Unit is Operating On:
RED
– one time
Frequency 1
RED
– two times
Frequency 2
RED
– three times
Frequency 3
RED
– four times
Frequency 4
GREEN
– one time
Frequency 5
GREEN
– two times
Frequency 6
GREEN
– three times
Frequency 7
To change the setting, follow these steps:
To select from Frequencies 1 thru 7:
1.
Depress the P/Shift button until the TX LED is illuminated
RED
.
(Approximately 5 seconds)
2.
Release the P/Shift button, then while the TX LED is still
illuminated
RED
, depress button #1 to select “Frequency 1” or
button #2 to select “Frequency 2” etc. If the transmit LED goes
out before you have selected a network, no settings will have
changed,
and
the LED will blink corresponding to the frequency
that the TX is currently set to. You must then begin again at
step 1 if you wish to change the current setting.
3.
The TX LED will blink to confirm that your frequency selection
has been accepted, and then will go out. For instance, if you
have selected Frequency #1, the TX LED will blink
RED
once
to confirm. If you have selected Frequency #6, the TX LED
blinks
GREEN
two
times
to confirm.
Programming is now complete, and the transmitter is active for normal
operation.
You may repeat the above procedure if you wish to change the frequency
at any time. See note* in SPECIFICATIONS.
TRANSMITTING MODE SETUP
The transmitter can be set to be in a standard transmission mode or in a
repeater mode where all receivers will repeat the transmission.
To select transmission mode:
1.
Remove one battery from the transmitter
2.
Press and hold the P/shift button while inserting the
battery
3.
Continue holding the P/shift button for 10 seconds until
the LED starts flashing
GREEN
/
RED
quickly.
4.
Press button 1 for standard mode or button 2 for repeating
mode.
5.
LED will turn
RED
if standard mode selected or
GREEN
if
repeater mode selected.
6.
If no button is pressed for 10 seconds, the LED will
illuminate to show the current transmission mode.
Once the transmission mode has been selected, the LED will continue to
illuminate
RED
(standard mode) or
GREEN
(repeater mode) for all future
transmissions.
NOTES ON TRANSMISSION MODE
The standard transmission mode is best for situations where quick button
response is needed. This type of transmission is typically used when you
’ll
be watching what you
’re controlling, so repeating is not necessary.
For repeating mode there is a short delay added to the button commands
to allow the system to repeat between multiple receivers without collision.
This type of system is usually something where many units spread out
over a large area need to be controlled simultaneously and response
speed isn
’t a priority.
Both types of transmission can be used simultaneously in the same
system although repeating transmissions could cause some lag in the
standard transmissions.
