Product Information
The product has a system programming feature that allows users to customize and edit the current configuration of the device. The programming mode can be accessed by pressing and holding the Bus and Close button for 4 seconds to bring up the password prompt. Users must enter the password 2580 followed by the Enter key. Once the password is accepted, Menu 1-9 will be displayed, and users can use the Seat button to scroll to a different menu and the Enter button to enter each menu or save the current configuration. The Cancel button clears user entries, and the Bus button changes OFF to ON and vice versa.
Menu 2 allows users to set the transmitter base ID, which should match the ID of the serial receiver unit that is connected to their computer. The base ID is a 3-digit number, and it is preset at the factory and should only be changed if necessary. Menu 4 allows users to set the baud rate, which is also preset at the factory and should only be changed if necessary.
The product uses two different receiving frequencies, and the ISTATION frequency should match the Table Scout frequency. Users can check the label on the back of the ISTATION to confirm the frequency. If necessary, users can change the frequency on the Table Scout by accessing the Freq menu, pressing BUS until they get to the desired frequency, and then pressing Enter key to save the frequency.
Menus 7-9 are not used for PRO-HOST systems.
