Figure 3.2: Selecting Transmitter Radio Frequency
The radio frequency (RF) is set as 304 MHz by default. To change the RF to
303.825 MHz, set dip switch 1 to the OFF position and dip switch 2 to the ON
position. To change the RF to 433.42 MHz, set dip switch 1 to the ON position
and dip switch 2 to the OFF position. Once the transmitter restarts after inserting
the battery, the transmitter will emit a number of beeping tones depending on the
configured RF.
Notice!
Remove the battery before setting the dip switches.
Use a white marker to indicate the configured RF on the back of the transmitter after setting the dip switches.
Changes to the dip switches should be performed by administrators only.

Factory Reset
Factory reset should be performed by administrators only. Set both dip switches 1 and
2 to the ON position. While pressing the Test and Alarm buttons, the transmitter resets
after inserting the battery. If the reset is successful, there will be 3 slow consecutive beep
tones every 1 second. After a successful reset, select the transmitter RF by setting the dip
switches as described in Section 3.1, Selecting Transmitter Radio Frequency. If the reset is
unsuccessful, there will be 2 slow consecutive beep tones every 1 second.
Refer to the following table which lists the values that are being set for the respective
features following the factory reset.
3.3
Activating the Configuration Mode
Configuration mode on the transmitter is activated by going into the test mode. Note that this mode is not available if the Man-Down or
Lanyard snatch alarms are triggered and active. While holding down the Test button, press the Alarm button and release. The transmitter
is in configuration mode once it emits 3 short and fast beep tones every 3 seconds.
3.3
Configuring the Transmitter
Transmitter type, Autotracking interval, Man-Down pre-beep to duration, Supervision Tracking, Man-Down and Lanyard Snatch features
can be configured wirelessly on the transmitter via the coordinator/receiver using the Central Console software. To establish
communication between the transmitter and the coordinator, you need to know their Radio IDs. Their unique Radio IDs can be fo und
engraved on the devices. Using the Central Console software, enable or disable the features accordingly and send the configuration to the
transmitter. Please refer to the Security Escort Technical Reference Manual for further details.
3.4
Exiting Configuration Mode
The transmitter will exit configuration mode automatically once the configuration has been transferred successfully to the transmitter. If no
coordinator/receiver is present, user can exit the configuration mode immediately by pressing the Test button. The transmitter will enter
operational mode once it exits the configuration mode.

Basic Transmitter Features
This section provides information of the various features of the transmitter.
4.1
Transmitting a Manual Alarm
Initiate an alarm by pressing and holding the Alarm button for 1 second. This emits a series of mixed tones for 2 seconds and sends an
alarm signal to the Central Console. If alarm is activated within sight of a receiver, the red LED on the receiver lights up. After initiating a
manual alarm, the Auto Tracking feature sends your latest location to the Central Console every 7 seconds (configurable). Reset the
transmitter after a manual alarm by performing a test as described in Section 6, Testing the Transmitter.
4.2
Man-Down Alarm
Whenever you are in a prone position (60° from upright) for more than 5 seconds (configurable), the transmitter emits a series of mixed
tones for 2 seconds, and sends an alarm signal to the Central Console. There are no tones or alarm signal if transmitter is restored within
5 seconds (configurable). If alarm is activated within sight of a receiver, the red LED lights up. Reset the transmitter after a Man-Down
Alarm by returning the transmitter to the upright position and performing a test as described in Section 6, Testing the Transmitter.
4.3
Lanyard Snatch Alarm
Initiate an alarm by pulling the lanyard off the transmitter. This emits a series of mixed tones for 2 seconds, followed by short beeps at 250
millisecond intervals. The transmitter sends an alarm signal to the Central Console. If activated within sight of a receiver, the red LED of
the receiver lights up. The Auto Tracking feature sends the latest location to the Central Console every 7 seconds (configurable). To reset
the transmitter after a Lanyard Snatch Alarm, reinsert the lanyard pin and perform a test as described in Section 6, Testing the Transmitter.

Test your transmitter by standing within sight of a receiver or siren-strobe. While holding down the Test button, press the Alarm button
until the transmitter emits 3 short beep tones. A test transmission is sent, lighting the green LED on a receiver or the strobe on an outdoor
siren-strobe. There may be a delay of 2 to 3 seconds before the flashing light appears. If the receiver's LED or the strobe does not light to
confirm a successful test transmission, retest the transmitter. If you still do not receive a confirmation, contact the security department.
