Familiarization
the Tracker cycles through all LED's, then indicates the remaining
battery life in the battery power display/distance indicator
v. A
reading of 95 to 99 percent indicates fully charged batteries.
The Tracker will enter transmit mode (tr). The flashing transmit light
w confirms the unit is in transmit mode.
Power Supply
The Tracker DTS operates with three AAA alkaline batteries. Use
only high-quality alkaline batteries of identical age and brand. Do
not use rechargeable, lithium, Oxyride, PowerPix or any other non-
alkaline battery.
Note that the battery level percentage is approximate,
depending on battery manufacturer and operating temperature. The
manufacturer suggests replacing your batteries well before reaching
20 percent.
If the Tracker is subjected to excessive moisture, open the battery
door
x to help allow the unit to dry. To prevent corrosion of
contacts, remove batteries during extended periods of inactivity.
The manufacturer does not warranty damage caused by battery
corrosion.
Search/Transmit
To enter search mode, push the search/transmit button
y for at least
one second, but for no longer than two seconds. During this time, the
distance indicator
v will display two dashes (“– –”). Release your
thumb when the display changes from “– –” to “SE” and the Tracker
sounds a series of three beeps. If the button is released before or
after this time, it will remain in transmit mode.
The Tracker can be switched instantly from search (SE) to
transmit (tr) mode at any time by simply pushing the search/transmit
button.
Options
Auto-Revert System: At startup, the user can engage the Tracker’s
auto-revert safety feature by pressing the options button
z while
pressing and turning the on/off switch. With auto-revert engaged,
the Tracker will revert to transmit mode after five minutes in search
mode.
If auto-revert is engaged, “Ar” will be shown in the power
display after the diagnostic testing. If auto-revert is not engaged, “nr”
will be displayed.
