T ESTING P ROPOSED L OCATIONS
Test your proposed console and sensor locations to ensure successful data
transmission.
1. Temporarily place the sensor array where you plan to mount it.
2. Apply power to the sensor array (see step 7 on page 6).
3. Set dip switch #4 on the transmitter to the TEST position, as shown below.
This puts the transmitter in Test Mode —the Indicator LED will flash to indi-
cate that the sensor unit is transmitting.
4. Temporarily place the console where you plan to mount it.
5. Apply power to the console (see step 5 on page 4).
6. Flip dip switch #4 on the receiver to the position opposite its starting position to
place the receiver in Test Mode as shown below.
Unlike Transmitter Test Mode, Receiver Test Mode is activated whenever
dip switch #4 on the receiver is moved to the opposite position from where
it was when the console was powered up. (See “Dip Switch Settings” on
page 9 for more information.)
In Test Mode, the console will beep whenever it receives data from the trans-
mitter (approximately every 2.5 seconds). If the two units are in range you
should hear a beep about every 2.5 seconds. If not, try moving the sensor
array closer to the display unit.
