ERA-UTX Battery Installation
- Flip the case over & remove the four(4) gray silicon grommets. Remove each of the screws nder the grommets using a Phillips head screwdriver.
- Separate the top half of case from lower half of the case.
- Install the included CR-2 battery in the holder (see figure 1).
- Replace cover, insert & tighten screws, re-insert silicon grommets.
- Test by pressing gray center push or by separating small magnet from side of the larger unit. A red LED should glow inside gray center push.
- Follow the instructions for “Pair Transmitter to Receiver”.
- Note: When battery gets weak, it will cause receiver to double-play the programmed melody when triggered.
Pair Transmitter to Receiver:
The transmitter works with all ERA receivers. Basic programming calls for the
user to program a transmitter to the receiver & select a melody for the
receiver to play when triggered by the transmitter. In the example below, the
transmitter will be programmed to the ERA-RXPG plugin receiver. If you are
using a different ERA receiver, follow the programming instructions for that
receiver to put the receiver in programming mode & to change the
melody.
- Ensure the ERA-RXPG is plugged into a standard wall outlet.
- On the ERA-RXPG receiver, hold down the “mode” button (lower button in figure 2) until you hear a short tone sound & the red LED (inside the front lens cover) begins to blink. This denotes the unit is in programming mode. Release this button.
- Scroll through available melodies by pressing the melody selector button. Stop pushing this button when you hear the sound you want the respective push button to play.
- Push the center push on the push button. The receiver will play a quick chime sound notifying the transmitter is programmed to the receiver. The red LED should still be blinking.
- If you want to program a second transmitter (push button, door contact, motion sensor, or driveway sensor) push the melody selector button (the button on top) to scroll through available melodies. Once you have the sound you want, stop pressing the melody selector button and repeat step 4 above, triggering the sensor/transmitter.
- Once you have programmed all the transmitter(s), exit programming mode by holding down the “mode” button until you hear a short tone sound & the red LED disappears (approx 3 seconds).
Test the Programming of Transmitter to Receiver:
- Ensure the ERA-RXPG receiver is plugged in & the battery is installed in the ERA-PBTX push button.
- Push the center button of the ERA-PBTX push button.
Mounting the Push Button:
Ensure you have programmed & tested the push button prior to mounting.
There are two mounting options for the ERA-UTX.
- The transmitter can be mounted to any wall using the mounting bracket. (Figure 3)
- The mounting bracket is located on the back of the ERA-UTX and can be removed by simply sliding it off.
- Position the bracket were you would like it and place two screws in the holes provided. To place the ERA-UTX back, simply slide it over the bracket.
- If mounting the ERA-UTX outdoors it is recommended to ensure the silicone plugs in the screw holes at the back are of the case are in place to prevent moisture from entering the case.
Using the Magnetic Contact:
The magnetic contact can be used on most doors/windows with a gap of less than
½ inch.
- Mount the push button on the door jam with the screws provided.
- Mount the magnet on the door (within ½” of the push button) with the screws provided.
- After mounting the magnet on the door snap the cover on the magnet case.
- The magnetic contact can be used on either side of the push button. (Figure 4)
Deleting the Memory of the ERA-RXPG:
- On the ERA-RXPG receiver, hold down the “mode” button (lower button in figure 2) until you hear a short tone sound & the red LED (inside the front lens cover) begins to blink. This denotes the unit is in programming mode. Release this button.
- Simultaneously hold both the “mode” & “volume” button for approximately 5 seconds until you hear a quick chime sound.
- This notifies that the memory of the ERA-RXPG is been erased.
Low Battery Indicator:
When the battery in the ERA-PBTX is low & needs to be replaced, it will signal
the receiver to double play the programmed melody on the receiver when
triggered. For example, if you have programmed the “ding-dong” sound for the
push button to play on the receiver, when the battery in the push button is
low, the receiver will play “dingdong…ding-dong” when triggered to notify you
to change the battery.
Programming with Other Receivers:
The ERA-PBTX is compatible with the ERA-VPRX Portable Receiver & the ERA-DCRX
Receiver. The programming is very similar for these receivers as well. The
only change is how to put the respective receiver into programming mode,
choosing a melody, & changing the zone. Please consult the manual for the
specific receiver when programming.
