Step 1

Adjust the KEYPAD ADDRESS rotary switch
(located in the battery compartment of the keypad)
so the selected setting corresponds to the setting of
the BASE UNIT ADDRESS switch on the back of

Replace the battery door.

and verify that the LED on the front of the keypad
illuminates. This indicates that the battery is

be installed backwards. Reverse the way the battery
is inserted, and try again. If a low battery is installed,

Remove the batteries.

Connect a CameraMan Keypad Cable (included)
to the RJ-11 type jack located in the battery com-
