REMOTE FUNCTIONS
REMOTE PROGRAMMING
With MUTT
® in the OFF position, hold down the large button (Fig. 4-1)
on the remote while simultaneously turning the MUTT ® power
ON. Release after 2 seconds. The remote is now programmed.
Up to 24 separate remotes may be programmed to a single
MUTT ® .
HOW TO USE THE WIRELESS REMOTE
1. LIGHTS & ELECTRIC BRAKES
Press button to select the next available electrical
circuit (including electric brakes when available).
2. AUTO CYCLE
Press and hold button #2 for 3 seconds (Fig. 4-1) and the Smart MUTT® will enter
Auto Cycle Mode where a circuit is powered for 6 seconds before
the tester automatically begins powering the next circuit in clockwise sequence.
3. REMOTE CONFIRMATION INDICATOR
Red light illuminates to confirm that a button has
been pressed to indicate battery remote power.
NOTE: With each press of either button, the red light (Fig. 4-3) of the remote
illuminates, showing the confirmation of button depression and battery integrity of the
remote. Inclement weather, nearby power transformers and closely parked trailers
may cause reduction in remote signal.
An antenna wire is attached on pg. 22 of this manual (Fig. 5). The antenna can be
inserted into the MUTT ® antenna jack (Fig. 2-I). It is recommended that the antenna
is installed upon set-up. In extreme scenarios, the operator may choose to install a
longer wire such as standard mechanic’s wire to achieve a better signal. This is only
necessary when working on trailers that are parked within 18” of each other. In
normal situations, the remote control will work from up to 75’ away from the MUTT ® .
The Remote Key Fob Battery supplied is a 12V, Alkaline Energizer type A23. A Gold
Peak type 23AE or a Duracell MN21 battery can be used.
WARNING
Be careful when using remote controls in multi-bay shops where another
MUTT® may be in operation. One remote may be inadvertently programmed
to multiple MUTT®s. This can happen when the large button on a remote is
being held down at the same time another MUTT® is being powered up,
effectively programming one remote to two units. To avoid this, be sure any
other MUTT® users alert you to when they power up their unit. A remote
control can only be synchronized to a MUTT® during the power up phase.
