MFJ-79 Remote Controller

For the MFJ-493

The MFJ-79 Remote Conroller allows remote menu operation of a MFJ-493 Menu Keyer. The unit has a remote Menu button and the Function buttons F l through F6. Having the

menu buttons close to or on the paddle cuts the amount of movement involved in using the MFJ-493 in contests or other intensive operation. The MFJ-79 is designed to mount to the base of an MFJ or Bencher type iambic paddle but can be mounted to any surface.

The supplied cable allows menu operation up to three feet away from the MFJ-493 unit.

To install on a paddle: Remove the back foot from the MFJ or Bencher type paddle. Replace the screw with one

of the supplied screws and mount the remote to the paddle base through the middle hole

of the remote. For MFJ paddles use the other two supplied screws to further secure the remote to the paddle base. Plug the IDC plug into the back of the MFJ-493 with the bare wire to the left (exiting the bottom side of the plug).
