For versatility, any transmitter can be programmed into any

 

 

 

receiver channel. Receivers must be programmed to the

 

 

 

 

transmitter’s code before system testing and operation.

 

 

 

 

Refer to the receiver’s instructions for details on programming.

 

 

 

 

The unit is powered by two 9-volt alkaline or lithium batteries.

 

 

Installation

 

These batteries are supplied with the transmitter and can power

 

 

 

the unit for up to two years. Every hour, the DXS-72 will send a

status transmission to the receiver. The hourly signal updates

 

 

 

the receiver to the transmitter’s condition. By monitoring status

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

transmissions, the receiver can determine if a transmitter has a

 

 

 

 

low battery or has been removed from the system. If the battery

 

 

 

 

voltage drops below a preset level the alarm will sound low

 

 

 

 

battery beeps and a low battery signal will be sent to the receiver

with status reports (some receivers can report low battery status,

 

 

 

others cannot).
