SET POWER/MUTE

After the batteries are installed, turn the power on by pressing and holding the Power/Mute button. The small power-on LED (see a at left ) should light green and the LCD window should come on. If this does not happen, the batteries are installed incorrectly or they are depleted. The transmitter’s “fuel gauge” battery indicator in the LCD displays a maximum of four bar seg- ments. When it flashes “LOW.BAT”, the batteries should be replaced immediately to ensure continued operation. (Additionally, the power-on LED will flash when the batteries are low.)

Operating the Transmitter

To turn the transmitter off, press and hold the Power/Mute button again, until the power indicator and the LCD window are extinguished (about 1-2 seconds). The LCD window will show

“PWR.OFF” before shutdown.
