Standard Keypad
To input a value, toggle to and select the desired digits from left to right. When a decimal value is required
(such as for feet only or meters), then the last two digits entered will be to the right of the decimal point. To
enter a whole value, enter two zeros at the end of the value. Use backspace to delete the last digit entered.
Once the desired number is in the display window, select Enter to lock in the value and turn on the function.
Your Remote Display
The Falcon F5 receiver is compatible with the following remote displays:
Remote Display Minimum Software Version Select on Remote Display
Falcon Compact Display - FCD 4.0 FalconF5
Multi-Function Display - MFD 3.0, F5 compatible F5
F Series Display - FSD all F5
Aurora - AP8, AF8, AF10 all Falcon F5 or F5
A remote display that accompanied your Falcon F5 receiver will already be set to communicate with your
receiver.
If you purchased your Falcon receiver by itself, your existing remote display may not include the required
option. If so, contact your regional DCI office or Customer Service for a software upgrade.
The operator's manuals for these remote displays are located on the flash drive that accompanied your
Falcon system and also at www.DigiTrak.com. For an MFD, use the FSD manual.
