Attaching the Receiver to Your Training Equipment
.
Attach the Pro Control
®
G3 receiver to your training equipment in accordance with
your manufacturer's directions. (If you use our Nylatch
®
fasteners,
see illustration for installing these in your receiver.)
Be careful not to attach the receiver to a training device in such a way that either
the receiver or its antenna will be in the path of whatever is launched. Also, do
not attach it in such a way that it will interfere with the releasing mechanism
of the training device.
If the receiver or its antenna is in the way of something, try attaching the receiver
upside down or in a different location. Do not operate the Pro Control
®
G3
without the antenna in the receiver.
Please note that the Nylatch
®
fasteners can break if the mounting holes on your
training equipment are slightly off in size, or if the thickness of the mounting
material is too great. Chance of breakage is higher in cold weather. Contact our
Customer Service Department if you need information on the correct dimensions for
mounting holes or the other technical characteristics of the Pro Control
®
G3 receiver.
Compatible Training Equipment
The Pro Control
®
G3 is compatible with a wide variety of remote launchers,
releasers, and accessories. Some are listed in our web site FAQ section. If you
have questions about the compatibility of your training equipment with the
Pro Control
®
G3, please contact the manufacturer of the training device,

Range

®
G3 is covered by a two-year warranty. The warranty does not

Troubleshooting Guide. If this does not resolve the problem, please call our

Troubleshooting Guide
Problem #1. The receiver did not accept a set.
Be sure the receiver has been turned on, and that you press the transmitter button
within five seconds of pressing the SET switch. Waiting longer than five seconds
will cause the receiver to return to normal on mode. Make sure receiver batteries
are charged.
Problem #2. I press the transmitter button but my training device does not activate.
A. Be sure that the receiver is turned on.
B. Check your transmitter dial and select the correct number for that receiver.
(You can use the sound button to confirm your setting and that the receiver is
turned on.)
C. Be sure you are using the correct transmitter.
D. Be sure you have plugged your training device into the receiver.
Use the TEST switch to confirm.
E. Be sure you are pressing the correct transmitter button for the output jack
you used for the training device.
F. Check that you have set up your training device correctly, and that any “safety”
or “on” switch on the training device itself is set to allow activation.
G. Be sure that neither the transmitter nor receiver batteries have run down.
