IMPORTANT! TEST SYSTEM WEEKLY

The manufacturer strongly recommends that you test
security equipment frequently. Over a period of time, no
electronic products are better than the inspection and
maintenence they receive. Therefore, from the time of
installation, it is absolutely necessary to test the system
at least once a week.

PLACE THE RECEIVER IN A "TEST"
MODE AND ACTIVATE THE
TRANSMITTTER. VERIFY THAT THE
SIGNAL IS RECEIVED AND THAT THE
SYSTEM REPORTS AS REQUIRED.

A SLOW BLINKING SIGNAL INDICATOR

Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fi ll an important need in
portable wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.

✴ For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and

Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and
therefore limited range.

✴ A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be

blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of
code settings.

✴ Changes or modifi cations to the device may void FCC compliance.

Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected
interference or fault.

✴ A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a

wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate
users.

✴ This device complies with FCC Part 15 and Canada Rules and Regulations. Operation

is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
