Transmitter Selection
For the receiver to detect the signal from the transmitter, the receiver and
transmitter must have matching regional designation numbers (see Receiver
Startup Screen image on page xiii). The receiver must also be set to match the
transmitter and frequency being used (discussed below) and calibrated to that
transmitter (see Calibrate Receiver to Transmitter on page 6).
The transmitter selection icon on the main menu opens a window with options for each type
of transmitter available for use with the F5 system. If there is more than one option for a
selection, a secondary menu will appear. Your receiver may display more transmitters than
are shown on the following screen depending on its configuration and your region.
Transmitter Selection Menu
The available menu options for each type of transmitter are listed in the table below. For dual-
frequency transmitters, the menu option icon shows the required orientation of the transmitter
(pointing up or down) during battery insertion to power up the transmitter in the correct mode
(see Installing Batteries / Power On on page xxxv).
