Simply press and hold one of the three scan buttons to change the mode. The top scan button is for “Day” mode, the middle scan button is for “Dawn/Dusk” mode and the bottom scan button is for “Night” mode. Hold the “Back” button down for 3 seconds. Then use the volume +/- buttons to adjust the brightness.
- Remote Control Distance: The Super Revolt utilizes industry leading remote technology which does not require a line of site between the remote and the caller up to at least 100 yards. Depending on conditions, remote distance may be significantly greater than 100 yards.
Scan Operation
- Top/Bottom Scan Buttons
- Press either button to rotate the call left or right. Press the button again to stop the call. Middle Scan Button
- Press this button to cover 180 degrees. The call will rotate 90 degrees to the left, 180 degrees to the right, and back 90 degrees to the left which will be the approximate starting postion. If you need to stop the call while rotating, simply press the scan button again.
- The scan buttons are a great way to broadcast sound to a large area. The Super Revolt has a powerful 30 watt/30 amp speaker system and is designed to extend sound long distances in multiple directions. Using the scan function will broadcast sound to a large area calling in predators from a greater distance than most calls.
- Favorite Buttons : F1-F3 are designed to store your three favorite sounds for quick access when hunting. Press the F1 through F3 button once to play the programmed sound at the predefined volume level.
- Program F1 through 3 – Simply highlight the sound you want to program as a favorite and adjust the volume to your preferred level. Hold down the corresponding F1 through F3 button. The highlighted sound will flash on the display screen confirming the programming is complete. IF THE F1 BUTTON WILL NOT PROGRAM, TRY PROGRAMMING F2, or F3 FIRST AND THEN PROGRAM F1.
- Gain Control: The Super Revolt is a four stage gain control function. The gain on this caller has four settings (1-4). One being the lowest and four being the highest (loudest). Whenever the caller is turned on it is set to gain level of “3”. By adjusting the gain, you are able to control the power running through the amp. You will notice a difference in the volume of the call between level 1 and level 4. Certain sound frequencies sound much better at a high gain where others sound better at a low gain. Knowing you may be adding your own sounds to this caller, adjusting the gain may be useful depending on the sound being played since each sound recording is different. Adjusting the gain may also be useful depending on the hunting situation. For example, turning the gain to level 4 in strong wind conditions may be beneficial even if the sound quality is reduced (i.e. distortion).
- Adjust Gain – Press the G key to cycle through the gain levels. The gain level will display on the display screen.
- Auxiliary Function: The Super Revolt is designed with an auxiliary function which allows a separate decoy to be controlled remotely by connecting a compatible decoy (not included) to the back of the caller using a 3.5mm cord (not included). Simply plug one end of the 3.5mm cord into a compatible decoy and the other end into the auxiliary port on the back of the caller. Turn on the compatible decoy and the caller/remote. The auxiliary button “AUX” on the remote will now turn the compatible decoy on and off. The AUX icon on the top of the display screen will be highlighted when it is used.
- Sound Management: The Super Revolt comes preloaded with 200 live animal sounds organized in 19 folders for quick access. These sounds have been professionally recorded by The Verminator, Rick Paillet. We firmly believe this is the best sound library on the market. The 200 preloaded sounds have the extension .LD. They will only play on Lucky Duck electronic calls. Any reproduction of the these sounds is strictly prohibited. Check out www.luckyduck.com for additional sounds to purchase.
Add/Remove Sounds
Use of a computer with Windows Operating System is strongly recommended. The Super Revolt features an industry leading wireless 2 way communication system between the remote and caller. This makes syncing the caller to the remote extremely easy.
- Locate the SD card on the back of the call under the black cover. Press the SD sound card in to eject the sound card and remove the SD sound card from the back of the caller
- Add or remove the folders and sounds on the SD sound card using your computer. View the files just like you would view files on a standard camera sd card.
- Reinstall the SD sound card into the caller (top side or label side of the SD card should face the left side of the caller when reinstalling).
- Turn on the caller and the remote control and let them synchronize with each other. The screen will show “Updating” after sound files have been changed or moved. Most syncs will take 5-30 seconds. The call and remote will only synchronize when there are changes on the SD card. As stated in the “Electronic Call Operation” section, the remote screen will then display “Finding Caller”, “Waiting”, “Communication OK” while it searches for the caller. Once connected to the caller the remote screen will be displayed. DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS WHEN REMOTE IS SEARCHING FOR THE CALLER.
It is important to note the maximum number of sounds are 2,000 and the maximum number of folders are 32. There can only be one level of folders. You cannot create a folder within a folder. The file names can be as long as you would like but the display screen will only show the first 20 characters. The caller will play .LD, and .mp3 files.
