7 Operating Procedures
7.1 General Operation
a) Reset the STOP button located on the top left hand corner of the transmitter by rotating
it clockwise or counter clockwise; the button will pop up. The
transmitter is powered on when the STOP button is elevated.
b) After turning on the transmitter power, check the Status LED on
the transmitter for any sign of system irregularities (refer to Section
7.5.1: Transmitter Status Indications). If the transmitter is in good
working order, the Status LED will blink green for up to two seconds at startup (no faults
detected).
c) Press the START button for up to one second to activate the
receiver MAIN relays. The same START button becomes an
auxiliary function thereafter (refer to Section 4.2.2.3: START +
AUX Function). Then press any pushbutton on the transmitter to
begin operation. Pressing any pushbutton prior to initiating the
START command at startup will result in no signals transmitted
(Status LED blinks orange).
d) In case of an emergency, press down the STOP button to disconnect the receiver MAIN relays
and the transmitter power. To resume operation, rotate the STOP button clockwise or counter
clockwise; the button will pop up. Then press the START button for up to one second to
reconnect the receiver MAIN relays. For safety, pressing the START button is strictly required
every time when the transmitter is turned on or after every STOP button reset.
e) After one minute or five minutes of inactivity (pushbutton not pressed) the receiver MAIN relays
are temporarily disconnected (refer to Section 4.1.5: Transmitter Inactivity Timer Settings). Press
any pushbutton or the START button to resume operation (refer to Section 4.1.4: Transmitter
Start Function Settings). The receiver MAIN relays are also temporarily disconnected when the
system encounters strong radio interference, dead spots, low battery condition, and/or when the
system is out of operating range.
f) Turn off the transmitter power by pressing down the STOP button; it will disconnect the
transmitter power and the receiver MAIN relays altogether.
