10. Setting up the Transmitter
In the operating instructions, the numbers in the text always refer to the figure opposite or the figures within
the section. Cross-references to other figures will be indicated by the corresponding figure number.
a) Inserting the Batteries/Rechargeable Batteries
For the power supply of the transmitter you will need 8 alkaline batteries or rechargeable batteries mignon size (AA).
For ecological and economical reasons it is recommended to use rechargeable batteries, since they can be recharged
in the transmitter through the built-in charging socket.
To insert the batteries or rechargeable batteries, please proceed as follows:
The battery compartment lid (1) is located on the bottom of
the transmitter. Press on the corrugated area (2) and slide
open the cover by pushing it sideways.
Now insert the 8 batteries or rechargeable batteries into the
battery compartment. Always make sure the polarity of the
batteries is correct. The negative pole (housing) of the battery
or rechargeable battery must have contact with the spiral
spring.
A corresponding notice (3) is located on the bottom of the
battery compartment.
Please note that the 4 batteries/accumulators on the right
have to be slid underneath the peg (4) first before inserting
the other 4 batteries/accumulators.
Afterwards slide the lid of the battery compartment back on
and let the locking mechanism click into place.
b) Charging the Rechargeable Transmitter Batteries
When rechargeable batteries are inserted, you can connect
the charger cable to the charging socket (16) to charge the
rechargeable batteries in the transmitter.
Always make sure the polarity of the connecting plug is
correct. The inner contact of the charging socket must be
connected to the positive terminal (+) and the outer contact
to the negative terminal (-) of the charger.
The charging current should correspond to approximately
1/10 of the capacity value of the inserted rechargeable
batteries. For rechargeable batteries with a capacity of 2000
mAh this corresponds to a charging current of approx. 200
mA and charging time takes approx. 14 h.
