INSTRUCTION MANUAL
FCC Statement This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Congratulations, you have purchased the most technically advanced electronic
wildlife calling system in the world! The sound quality, volume, remote control
capabilities and size put COMPUCALLER III in a league of its own. While
COMPUCALLER III IS NOT AN ANVIL, it is more than rugged enough to handle
temperatures from below zero to over 100 degrees and the standard abuse of day
to day calling. We guarantee that any hunter will call more predators with the
COMPUCALLER III than any other method presently known.
To install additional soundcards, first power the unit off, and simply line up the card
in the slot (card will only fit one direction) and push the card into the slot firmly until
it stops. The unit will recognize the new card when it is powered back on. To
remove a soundcard, first power the unit off, and firmly grip the soundcard with the
thumb and forefinger and pull straight up. Individuals with larger hands may find
that prying the card up with a coin at first is helpful. Repeat the process for any
other sounds you wish to replace.

caller to the previous sound. You can change the volume and select the sounds
while the caller is paused. The green light on the caller flashes to confirm the
commands.
Operation via the remote is similar to the base except to change the sounds,
press the S+ or S- to scroll through the sounds. When you find the sound you
want to play, press the start / stop button to select the sound and start playing it.
