1. Press the button and a LED will light up
in the MODE_IND window, indicating
that the address is being created. The
address will be randomized for as long
as the button is held down.
2. Release the button and the randomized
address will be saved and the LED will
begin flashing to indicate that the control
permissions may now be set.
3. Press all the buttons one by one that the
transmitter will have the authority to
access. Press the CREATE button with
the paper clip again or wait 17 seconds
for it to time out. The address and
control permissions are now set.
6.4 Setting the Receiver Address
Once the transmitter is setup, you must now program the corresponding MSI-3460 to
match.
1. Program the F1 key to “LEARN” (See the function key set up procedure). You
can also remove the battery from the MSI-3460. Then the “LEARN” mode will
start when the battery is plugged back in.
2. Start LEARN by pressing the USER key on the MSI-3460 front panel (or plug in
the MSI-3460 battery).
3. Press each key on the transmitter that you plan to use. During the “LEARN”
process the ACK annunciator will blink. You must complete all button pushes
before it times out in 17 seconds.
Any MSI-3460 can learn up to seven different remotes. However, never program
multiple MSI-3460s to the same remote since they will all respond at the same time if
they are in range.

6.5 Contention and Jamming Considerations
It is important to understand that only one transmitter at a time can be activated within
a reception area. While the transmitted signal consists of encoded digital data, only
one carrier of any frequency can occupy airspace without contention at any given
time.
