The RX+ Receiver requires 3 x LR6 AA 1.5V Alkaline batteries. The use of good quality batteries is essential for maximum battery life. Mixing old and new batteries or different battery types is not recommended. Rechargeable batteries are not recommended either. Please ensure the batteries are removed from the RX+ Receiver during long periods without use.

Product Usage Instructions

Fitting the Batteries

1. Turn off the unit prior to fitting or replacing the batteries.
2. Using the supplied screwdriver, unscrew the two battery cover screws.
3. Pull the lower tab up to remove the battery cover.
4. Take care while removing the batteries. Insert new batteries and ensure correct polarity.
5. Re-fit cover and screws.

DO NOT over tighten the battery compartment screws, excessive force will damage the screw threads.

Switching On / Off
To turn on the RX+ Receiver, rotate the volume dial clockwise to ‘ON’. A click will be felt and all the LEDs will cycle through their colors, ending on white. The LEDs will then display the battery condition for 3 seconds (see battery indication guide below). Rotate the control clockwise to increase the speaker volume. The unit is silent at the lowest volume setting.

Battery Indication Guide

When the RX+ Receiver is switched on and at the end of the LED lighting sequence, the unit will pause for 3 seconds showing a battery indication using the 4 LED’s.

• 4 Green LEDs indicates the batteries are new or nearly new.
• 3 Green LEDs indicates the batteries are used, but do not need replacement.
• 2 orange LEDs indicates the batteries are becoming low and will need replacement soon.
• 1 red LED indicates batteries are low and need replacement as soon as possible.

Please note that the RX+ receiver may continue to work with 1 RED LED indicator for a short time without triggering the low battery warning in use. This indicator feature is to help identify battery condition prior to the low battery warning.

Low Battery Warning
When the RX+ Receiver batteries are low, the LEDs will flash cyan (blue- green) periodically. When this occurs, batteries should be replaced at the earliest opportunity. The RX+ Receiver will also indicate if any of your RX+ Alarms batteries are low. When the alarm low battery warning changes the microns LED color to cyan (blue-green), the receiver will do the same for that alarm.

Registration Mode
When the RX+ Receiver is used for the first time, it is necessary to register the bite alarms that it will be used with, so that the RX+ Receiver can learn their unique identification codes.

1. Switch RX+ Receiver ON.
2. Using a small pointed object, press the registration button on the back of the receiver.
3. HOLD DOWN the button until the leftmost LED starts to flash red.
4. Press the registration button again on the back of the RX+ Receiver, or switch the RX+ Receiver off to complete the registration process.

If you would like to change the order of the RX+ Microns or add more to your setup, please repeat the above sequence. Be aware that restarting the registration process wipes the memory of the RX+ Receiver, therefore all previously registered RX+ Microns will need to be registered again if they are required.

Switching On / Off

To turn on the RX+ Receiver rotate the volume dial clockwise to ‘ON’. A “click” will be felt and all the LEDs will cycle through their colours, ending on white. The LEDs will then display the battery condition for 3 seconds (see “battery indication guide” below). Rotate the control clockwise to increase the speaker volume. The unit is silent at the lowest volume setting. To deactivate the RX+ Receiver rotate the dial fully counter clockwise to the ‘OFF’ position – you will hear a click as it reaches this position.

When the RX+ Receiver is switched on and at the end of the LED lighting sequence the unit will pause for 3 seconds showing a battery indication using the 4 LED’s.

• 4 Green LEDs indicates the batteries are new or nearly new.
• 3 Green LEDs indicates the batteries are used, but do not need replacement.

Low Battery Warning

When the RX+ Receiver batteries are low the LEDs will flash cyan (bluegreen) periodically. When this occurs, batteries should be replaced at the earliest opportunity. The RX+ Receiver will also indicate if any your RX+ Alarms batteries are low. When the alarm low battery warning changes the microns LED colour to cyan (blue-green) the receiver will do the same for that alarm

Battery Requirements

The RX+ Receiver requires 3 x LR6 AA 1.5V Alkaline batteries.
The use of good quality batteries is essential for maximum battery life.

To reduce the risk of battery leakage:

• DO NOT mix old and new batteries.
• DO NOT mix different battery types.
• The use of rechargeable batteries is NOT recommended.

Please ensure the batteries are removed from the RX+ Receiver during long periods without use.

Registration Mode
When the RX+ Receiver is used for the first time, it is necessary to “register” the bite alarms that it will be used with, so that the RX+ Receiver can “learn” their unique identification codes.
Before starting this procedure, ensure all your bite alarms are witched OFF, then proceed as follows:

1. Switch RX+ Receiver “ON.”
2. Using a small pointed object press the registration button on the back of the receiver.
3. HOLD DOWN the button until the leftmost LED starts to flash red.
4. Now simply switch on the RX+ Micron you would like to assign to the first LED. The LED colour will change to match that of the alarm and the RX+ Receiver will beep once, to indicate successful registration. The next LED will then start to flash and the next RX+ Micron can be registered. Up to 8 RX+ alarms can be registered with an RX+ Receiver. After the 4th RX+ Micron is registered the 1st LED will begin to flash again, this is to indicate registration point 5 and it will not impact the 1st registered alarm.
5. When complete press the registration button again on the back of the RX+ Receiver, or switch the RX+ Receiver off. If you would like to change the order of the RX+ Microns, or add more to your setup please repeat the above sequence. Be aware that restarting the registration process wipes the memory of the RX+ Receiver, therefore all previously registered RX+ Microns will need to be registered again if they are required.

Obtaining the best performance from the RX+ Receiver
The operating range of the RX+ Receiver, like all low power radio systems, is highly dependent on the conditions of use and can be adversely affected by the position of both transmitter and receiver, the terrain over which it is being used, the prevailing atmospheric conditions and the presence of any interfering signals.

To obtain best performance, it is recommended that you –

• Keep the RX+ Receiver as high above ground as possible – if worn on the body, it should be worn as high as possible and on the outside of your clothing.
• Try to keep a direct “line-of-sight” between the receiver and transmitter – obstructions such as trees, buildings, etc may cause loss of signal, or reflections of the signal, resulting in “dead spots”.
• Do not keep the RX+ Receiver in the same pocket as a mobile phone, or other electronic device.
• Ensure both your RX+ Receiver and your alarms have good batteries.

If all the above points are adhered to, a working range of over 500 metres may be obtained. All the above hints become progressively less important as the working range is reduced. Remember to use the system responsibly – the RX+ Receiver has been designed to give a long operating range in order to maximise reliability at close range and NOT to encourage users to leave their rods in the water unattended, whilst they are hundreds of metres away.

Anti Theft Alarm
If your alarms are switched off the RX+ Receiver will emit an audio tone or tones (depending on the number of alarms deactivated) and the corresponding alarm LEDs will turn red. (The unit will also vibrate if vibration is switched on).

Infrared Window (IR)
This is fitted to the RX+ Receiver for future compatibly with next generation Fox light products.

Vibrating alert function
The RX+ Receiver includes a vibrating alert function which can be enabled by a switch on the back of the unit with this symbol above it.

When enabled, the unit will vibrate on each trigger from an RX+ Micron. By reducing the volume to zero, this allows for discrete, silent operation.

Bivvy light function

The RX+ Receiver incorporates a small bivvy light which is triggered automatically when this function is switched on. To prevent disturbing the user unnecessarily, it does not illuminate unless at least three beeps are received in a short space of time. Once illuminated, the bivvy light stays on until the last LED extinguishes, after which the bivvy light fades out. Note that when the bivvy light feature is enabled, the brightness of the indicator LEDs is reduced to prevent glare. The bivvy light function is enabled by a switch on the back of the unit with this symbol above it.

Warnings

• DO NOT trigger LED or speaker in close proximity to human or animal eyes and ears.
• Store this equipment out of reach of children and infants.
• Avoid dropping or subjecting the RX+ Receiver to severe impacts.
• Use only recommended batteries and accessories.
