Figure 3: Separated Alkaline Battery Pack When reinserting the lid onto the outer housing, make sure that the lid aligns with the outer housing and secure all four T10 star bit screws. When placing the battery pack into the XLTX battery pocket, ensure that the pack is fully seated and that the thumb screw is tightened down to hold the battery pack in place. Figure 4: Installation of Battery Pack into XLTX transmitter NOTE: The Intrinsically Safe battery pack must be secured in place with the thumb screw.
3.1.3 Spare Battery Storage Compartment The XLTX transmitter features a spare battery compartment to store a second battery pack. The second battery pack allows for quick replacement of the primary battery pack when the battery level gets low. The spare battery storage compartment is the battery compartment with IR cover inside the battery compartment.
3.2.1 Turning On the Transmitter First, the Machine Stop switch must be in the raised position (pulled out). Next, push the OFFON-START toggle switch to the START position and release it once the Status LED lights up as a solid green color. Following the Status LED turning on and illuminating green, the unit will perform a routine initialization. During initialization, the XLTX scans for any switches or motions that may be on during power up.
NOTE: The LED should be continuously blinking at all times. If the LED is not blinking the transmitter will need to be rebooted to operate properly. 3.5.2 Switch Change Indicator (Rapidly Blinking Status LED) When a switch is actuated or a switch status changes, the status LED will blink rapidly during the change. NOTE: If a joystick, rotary switch, or auxiliary switch is held in position or latched, the status LED will return to the steady watch dog indicator blinking state. 3.5.
