4.0 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE.
This section describes the recommended operating procedure and maintenance for the
transmitter-receiver system.
4.1 OPERATION.
4.1.1 Turn on and arm the transmitter, and with the receiver’s ARM switch in
“safe” or “disarmed” position and no devices connected, perform a
range test by observing the green activity light on the receiver while
pressing a numeric transmitter button. An assistant may be needed to
observe the receiver activity light while you operate the transmitter. There
should be no intervening conductive objects for most reliable operation.
All receivers must be elevated 12” or more above ground level to achieve
full specified range. When transmitting over water, range will normally
exceed the specified value. Range of the receiver is typically ½ mile.
Verify that the transmitter battery is not depleted by observing the
flashing “Battery Level” light while not pressing the FIRE buttons. (See
section 1.3) Then turn the transmitter off.
