Spectrum scanning with the receiver itself is the best 

way to find clear operating frequencies, since it will 

reveal all RF signals present in the receiver, including 

those generated by IM (intermodulation).

Navigate to the Setup Scan screen and press the Sel 

button to start the scanner. The display will switch to the 

SCAN WINDOW and start scanning immediately. Allow 

the receiver to scan.
Scroll through the screen and find a frequency where 

no RF signals (or in the worst case, only very weak RF 

signals) are present. With the cursor on this frequency, 

simultaneously press the Sel Up, Down and Sel buttons 

to leave the scan mode.
Data gathered during a scan is stored until it is inten-

tionally erased or the power is turned off. Previous 

data will remain and subsequent scans can be made 

to search for additional signals or to accumulate higher 

peaks.
To stop scanning, press the Sel button once. The scan-

ning will stop immediately, and the display will switch to 

the VIEW window. Pressing the UP or DOWN buttons 

will scroll the cursor coarsely across the tuning range. 

The transmitter switch settings matching the frequency 

indicated by the cursor are shown in the upper right 

corner of the screen.

Scanning for Clear Frequencies

Press both the UP and DOWN buttons at the same 

time to switch to the Zoom View. In this view, the cursor 

remains fixed in the center of the screen and the back-

ground scrolls behind it. The frequency can be stepped 

up and down in 100 kHz increments using the UP and 

DOWN arrow buttons.

To clear the scan memory and screens, press the 

back button repeatedly to return to the Main Window, 

then press and hold the PWR button briefly. As soon 

as “Powering off...” appears on the display, release the 

button. The receiver will remain turned on, and the scan 

data will be erased.
Set your transmitter switches to the same settings as 

shown on the display, turn the transmitter on and verify 

that a strong RF signal is present.

NOTE:  When operating in the 2-channel mode, 

always set Receiver 2 to a higher frequency than 

Receiver 1 by at least 400 kHz (four 100 kHz steps 

on the switches).
