OCATIONS

 

Test your proposed console and sensor locations to ensure successful data 
transmission.

 

1. Temporarily place the sensor array where you plan to mount it.

2. Apply power to the sensor array (see step 7 on page 6).  

3. Set dip switch #4 on the transmitter to the TEST position, as shown below.

 

This puts the transmitter in 

 

Test Mode

 

—the Indicator LED will flash to indi-

cate that the sensor unit is transmitting.

 

4. Temporarily place the console where you plan to mount it.

5. Apply power to the console (see step 5 on page 4).

6. Flip dip switch #4 on the receiver to the position opposite its starting position to 

place the receiver in Test Mode as shown below.

 

Unlike Transmitter Test Mode, Receiver Test Mode is activated whenever 
dip switch #4 on the receiver is moved to the opposite position from where 
it was when the console was powered up.  (See “Dip Switch Settings” on 
page 9 for more information.) 

In Test Mode, the console will beep whenever it receives data from the trans-
mitter (approximately every 2.5 seconds).  If the two units are in range you 
should hear a beep about every 2.5 seconds.  If not, try moving the sensor 
array closer to the display unit.
