System Operation

By following the previous setup instruction, the system should now be up and running. Please read the following information for optimization / best performance of that system.

Beltpack position - When operating the system, wear the beltpack on the hip. Place it in a position that allows for greatest visibility to the master TR-24 antennas. The internal antennas for the TR-24 are on the sides of the beltpack case. For best visibility of antennas, do not place other objects within 6 inches (15cm) of the beltpack on the belt.
