e. After 1 minute or 5 minutes of inactivity (pushbutton not pressed) the receiver MAIN
relays are temporarily disconnected (refer to section 4.1.5 Inactivity Timer Settings).
Press any pushbutton or execute the START command to resume operation (refer to
section 4.1.4 Start Function Settings). The receiver MAIN relays are also temporarily
disconnected when the system encounters strong radio interference, dead spots, low
battery condition, and system out of operating range.
f. Turn off the transmitter power by rotating the power switch key counter clockwise to
Off ( 0 ) position; it will disconnect the transmitter power and the receiver MAIN relays
altogether. Turn it further counter clockwise to release the key.
6.2 Master/Master Tandem Operation (Tandem models)
a. To gain control of one or both receivers, first rotate
the selector switch to either A, B or A+B position
and then execute the START command to activate
the receiver MAIN relays inside receiver A,
receiver B, or both receivers (depending on the
selector switch position). In order to gain control
of a receiver, the PITCH pushbutton on the other
transmitter must be pressed prior to your takeover.
For example, in order for transmitter-A to gain
control of receiver-B, transmitter-B must first
release its control of receiver-B by first rotate the
selector switch to B position and then press the
PITCH pushbutton for up to 2.0 seconds. This
action releases transmitter-B control of receiver-B. Transmitter-A is then able to take
control of receiver-B by first rotate the selector switch to B position and then execute
the START command. Make sure the START command is executed 2.0 seconds
after transmitter-B presses the PITCH pushbutton (refer to diagram below).
