C. Split Setup
Split Setup allows for selective splitting of the data received into groups of a user selected number of
bits. When this feature is selected by pressing the FN key, the following screen is displayed:
Line 1

FN to Set
Bit Split xxx indicates which group is being defined.
“xx” is the number of bits that comprise this group.
This feature allows the user to determine how data transmitted from the transmitter is displayed.
Normally the data is displayed with each byte of data represented by one decimal number from 000 to
255. Many times the sensor data contained in the data stream is not limited to 1 byte. For example a
transmitter may transmit 4 bytes (32 bits) of data which are comprised of 2 bits of low battery, 6 bits of
zero’s, 8 bits of temperature, 6 bits of 1 minute activity, and 10 bits of long term activity. The Split
setup allows the user to specify that the first group of numbers displayed will comprise 2 bits, the
second group displayed comprises 6 bits, the third group displayed comprises 8 bits, the fourth group
comprises 6 bits, and the fifth group comprises 10 bits. The receiver will split the data into these
groups and display them as a decimal number with one group per line in the display. After the final
number is entered, pressing FN returns to “Split setup” of Menu Level 2.
D. Beep Tone
Beep Tone allows for choice of what sound is generated when a beep occurs. When this feature is
selected and the FN key pressed, the following appears:
Choices are 1 to 9 with each number corresponding to a different tone.
Each time a new number is selected by pressing the UP or DN key a short
sample of the selected tone is generated
.
This only selects the type of tone.
The volume of the tone is adjusted under Volume in Main Menu Level 1.
After the desired tone is selected, pressing the FN key accepts the selection
and returns to the Setup Menu Level 2 display screen. The tones are
audible only if the speaker is enabled. Tones are always audible over the headphones.

E. Lite On Time
Lite On Time selects the amount of time that the backlight stays on when it is activated. When this
feature is selected by pressing the FN key, the following display appears:
Choices are OFF, 1 thru 99 seconds, and ON. If OFF is selected, the
backlight never comes on. 1 thru 99 seconds is the amount of time the
light stays on when activated. After this time expires, the light turns OFF.
If ON is selected, the backlight stays on continuously when activated by
the PWR (P3) switch
.
See PWR (P3) switch operation at the beginning of
this document for instructions on turning the backlight on/off.
After the
time is selected, pressing the FN key accepts the selection and returns to the Setup Menu Level 2
display screen. Battery life is dramatically reduced when the backlight is ON. Set this value to a
minimum to maximize battery life.
