Receive Mode:
Automatic:
If RS485, GPS or Air have been selected as the synchronization type (in
Set-Up Parameter #7) , then the ATX6 will automatically enter a
“listen” mode for 15 minutes after power up and each day at 1:05AM,
3:05AM and 10:45PM. This is indicated by the “~” symbol flashing. The
UHF LED will flash twice during this time each time a signal is received.
Manual:
Receive Mode is entered by pressing and holding RECV (NXT) for 2
seconds, and is evidenced by the ‘~’ symbol appearing in the display
solidly. The UHF LED will flash twice each time a signal is received.
When Receive Mode is active, the ATX6 will listen for AirTime signals
transmitted by other ATX-series devices for one hour, allowing it to
configure itself as a member of the AirTime Network. This is helpful
when installing and testing other ATX-series devices in the system.
Radio transmissions are inhibited during receive mode.
If another AirTime Transceiver (ATX or ATX6) is selected as the time
reference for this unit (Set-Up parameter #7 is set to ‘Air’), then the
ATX6 will synchronize its clock to the received transmission.
Receive Mode can be terminated by pressing and holding RECV (NXT)
for 2 seconds, indicated by the ‘~’ symbol extinguishing on display.
