CLEANING & CHARGING LRS PAGING EQUIPMENT

Cleaning:
LRS pagers are made from industrial-strength, polycarbonate material. However, this material is susceptible to hairline cracking if non-approved cleaners are used. When cleaning LRS pagers, we recommend only using

ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL-BASED CLEANERS.

To clean the equipment:

1. Take a clean rag and an isopropyl-alcohol based cleaner
2. Soak the clean rag with the isopropyl alcohol cleaner
3. Wipe down the pagers or equipment

Cleaning equipment with any other non-approved cleaners can weaken plastic and cause hairline cracks. Pagers and equipment that are cleaned with unapproved cleaners and suffer cracking will not be covered under warranty.
Do not submerge any LRS paging equipment in any type of liquid as this will also damage the equipment and is not covered under the standard warranty.

Charging **

**

Place rechargeable pagers on the charger and let them charge for 8 hours prior to first use.
Rechargeable pagers should be kept on charge even during extremely long periods of inactivity.
Should you have any questions, please contact the LRS Customer Service Department at 800.437.4996.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Transmitter Unit
Transmitter Display does not light when a key is pressed

• The proper power supply for this transmitter is 12VDC 4.0A
• Ensuring that the proper power supply is in use, plug the TX-9561EZ into that power supply and allow it to charge for 30 minutes
• If the unit still is blank and has no power, substitute the power supply being used with the power supply used for the pager charging base (this is meant as a test only and not as a permanent replacement)
• If substituting with another power supply results in a TX-9561EZ that is working properly, please call LRS to purchase a new power supply.

Transmitter display is okay, but the pager does not receive the page Check whether this affects all pagers or just one pager
If only one pager is affected:

• Ensure that the pager is properly charged and initiates a vibrate/flash sequence when removed from the charging base
• If the pager does not vibrate and flash when removed from the charging base, please charge it overnight before troubleshooting further
• If the pager initiates the vibrate/flash sequence when removed from the charging base, please continue with the next steps

If ALL pagers are affected and none of them will page:

• Check the Restaurant ID on the TX-9561EZ to ensure that it matches the Restaurant ID for the pagers (please call LRS if you do not have this information on file)
• If the Restaurant ID is correct, all pagers are appropriately charged yet none of the pagers page, please contact LRS

Pager(s) not charging
When placed in the charging base, do all pagers have a single red charge light lit up?
If no pagers have a charge light, this may be an issue with the power supply (please contact LRS)
If only some pagers have a charge light that is lit, please do the following:

• Remove the main power supply and all jumper wires (all pagers will go off t once and this is ok)
• Insert the power supply into each individual row (or base for Coasters) to see if the pagers on that row/Coaster base all light up
• If all pagers on that row or Coaster base light up, please test the next row/base with the power supply until you have tested each one
• If some of the pagers do not light up but those specific agers light up on other rows/bases, please call LRS to have this row/base replaced

If all pagers have the charge light lit up as you test the individual rows/bases, you may have a jumper wire that is not connecting properly or causing a short. Please contact LRS to purchase additional jumper wires to replace ones that are not working as they should.
Note Regarding Pagers: Please be sure that all pagers are plugged in and charging when not in use. Please also note that a maximum of 30 Coasters or 25 Pagers can be on one 10V power sup-ply. If you are exceeding any of these limits, it may have long term effects on your pagers’ ability to charge properly. Please contact LRS to purchase additional charging bases to supplement your entire inventory.
