Updating Responder Firmware
From time to time you may need to update the firmware for your Responders.
Follow these steps:
1. Highlight Settings and press Select.
2. Highlight Firmware Update and press Select.
3. If the Responder asks if you want to stay connected to the Receiver,
press yes and then Enter.
4. If updated firmware is available, scroll to the newest update available and
press Select.
5. Enter the Administrator PIN (the default is 1234), and press Enter. (If you
changed the Administrator PIN when you changed the Receiver settings,
use the PIN you set.)
The Responder will start updating the firmware. The program shows you its
progress as it does the update. When the update is complete, the Responder
will show you the new version number. Press any key to go to the Responder
menu or the student PIN entry screen.
Replacing Responder Batteries
High-quality alkaline batteries should last an entire school year. When the
batteries need replacing, you’ll see an empty battery icon on the Responder
screen with the message Batteries are Very Low.
Checking the Battery Charge
1. On the Responder, press On/Off to turn it on.
2. If the Responder is owned, enter the owner’s PIN.
3. Press the down arrow button to scroll down to Settings.
4. Press Select.
5. With About highlighted, press Select. The battery charge status is shown
by the darkness of the symbol. If it is completely dark, the batteries are
fully charged. If not, the symbol will be 2/3 dark, 1/3 dark, or empty as the
batteries discharge.
