Install Alkaline Batteries with Battery Contact Spring
Dual-frequency transmitters must be in the appropriate orientation (pointing up or pointing down) for
the desired frequency when the batteries are installed, as shown below.
Install Batteries in Proper Orientation for Dual-Frequency Transmitters
NOTE: The pressure sensor in an FPT (model F5Dp 19/12 or F5Dp 12/1.3) will be set to zero
when the transmitter is powered up.
3. After installing the batteries, replace the battery cap. Be sure to keep the dual-frequency transmitter in
the correct orientation when replacing the battery cap.
NOTE: When using a 19/12 dual-frequency transmitter (5XD 19/12 or F5Dp 19/12), you can
change the frequency after batteries are installed. See “Changing the Frequency of a
19/12 Dual-Frequency Transmitter” later in this section. The 12/1.3 dual-frequency
transmitters (5XD 12/1.3 and F5Dp 12/1.3) must be set to single (12 kHz) or dual mode
(12/1.3 kHz) when batteries are installed.
