The Remote Infrared Beacon is a separate device that can be
handheld or built into another LEGO
®
model. It requires two AAA
alkaline batteries. To turn the Remote Infrared Beacon on, press
the big Beacon Mode button on the top of the device. A green LED
Indicator will turn on, indicating the device is active and transmitting
continuously. Another press on the Beacon Mode button will turn
it off (after one hour of inactivity, the beacon will automatically turn
itself off).
