Operator’s Manual 51
Power On/Off
Once you have provided power to the FSD remote, either using the battery pack or a DC power source,
then you can operate the unit. The power on and off functions are as follows.
Power On – Press the execute button for a half-second or more to turn on the FSD unit. You will
hear a tone and the main display screen will appear.
Power Off – Push and release the execute button on the front of the remote to access the main
menu screen. Push the button again to highlight the power off menu (see “Main Menu” later in this
section), and then hold the button down until the unit turns off.
Keypad
The keypad to the right of the display window is used to operate the FSD remote.
Execute Button – The execute button (curved arrow) turns on the FSD unit and selects a
highlighted menu option. It is also used for adjusting contrast and for executing menu options. It
functions like the trigger switch on the receiver.
Direction Buttons – The up/down, left/right arrow buttons are used to navigate through
menu options. The down button also can be used to access the main menu from the remote
mode (see “Main Menu” later in this section).
Audible Tones
The FSD remote has an internal speaker that emits a tone at startup and emits warning tones when the
transmitter temperature increases. See “Transmitter Temperature Warning Tones” in the Transmitter
section for a complete listing of the warning tones and what they signify.
Adjusting Screen Contrast
There are two ways to adjust the screen contrast. The easiest method is to hold in the execute button
while pushing the right arrow (to lighten the display) or the left arrow (to darken the display). The other
way is by using the contrast adjustment option in the main menu (see “Main Menu” later in this section).
