Troubleshooting Guide (con’t) 

Chart #4 

Considerations when Downloading the ID 

Potential downloading issues 

 
If testing of the receiver and transmitter both show the system as working (Chart 1 & 2), then the transmitter and receiver 
will both go into Download/Configuration mode. 
 
Possible issues could arise during Step 4, the download phase of reprogramming.  In this case there are 2 symptoms to 
look for: 

1.  The Link light on the receiver will not turn GREEN when the power switch is toggled on the transmitter to download 

2.  The receiver will “time out” indicating that it didn’t receive a signal from the transmitter within the 30 seconds from 

the time the receiver was put into Setup Mode. 

 
If all indications appear normal during the download phase, test the link by turning on the transmitter (note: the transmit-
ter shuts off after transmitting the ID code in Step 4) 
 
1.  If the Link light on the receiver doesn’t turn GREEN, the receiver didn’t receive all of the information that was sent 

from the transmitter. 

 

Possible Solutions 

 
1.  Try the Downloading steps again 

2.  If this doesn’t correct the problem, send both the transmitter and receiver in for service. 
 
 

Note: you could try to determine whether the fault lies with the transmitter or receiver by completing the downloading 
procedure with a different transmitter.  If this step works, then the fault lies with the original transmitter.  If not, the 
fault may lie with the receiver.

 

!!Caution!!  

  
Note: 

Before attempting downloading with another transmitter, understand that repro-

gramming the receiver with another transmitter, could result in two receivers on the job 
site  responding to the one transmitter.  If the original transmitter was sent in for repair,  
Disconnect the receiver (disconnect connector A) to continue using the machine with-
out remote capability and without fear of inadvertently operating the machine with the 
other transmitter. 

Connector A 

Reprogramming Tips: 

 
1.  Use a pointy instrument to depress the Setup button on the receiver (i.e. a pen) as the button is relatively small 

2.  Follow each step as laid out in the procedure 

3.  Never lay the receiver circuit board down on anything metallic (there are contact points on the back which could con-

tact the metal and damage the receiver)
