Theory of Operation TechALERT® Technician Productivity Enhancement Technology Having a technician “tied” to a machine during its entire service cycle is an inefficient use of shop manpower. Similarly, equipment that sits idle once a service is complete or when it needs attention during a service due to the occurrence of a fault condition is inefficient as well. RTI provides the solution by offering TechALERT®, an exclusive patent-pending wireless communication tool designed to enhance shop productivity.

BATTERY INSTALLATION Insert two alkaline AAA batteries. Note the polarity markings and install each battery correctly. NOTE: An audible beep will be heard when the batteries are installed correctly. 3) Replace the battery cover and install the screw. Do not over-tighten as the case may be damaged. Note: Serial Label The illustration shows the serial number label which is visible when the battery is removed.
SYSTEM OPERATION ® The TechALERT system consists of a Base Module which is mounted on the service equipment to be monitored and one or more portable Remote Module(s). The service equipment is connected to the Base Module by way of a control cable. Various signals from the service equipment are sent to the Base Module where they are transmitted wirelessly to any Remote Modules that are synchronized with that base unit.
CONFIGURATION POSSIBILITIES One Base Module can communicate with multiple Remote Modules One Remote Module can communicate with multiple Base Modules 7
SYNCHRONIZATION Base LED Base PB Remote PB Remote LED’s Communication between the Base Module and a Remote Module is enabled through a synchronization routine. This is initiated by placing the lower end of a Remote Module with the Base Module at the target. Each unit has a picture of a target on the decal. The target on the Remote Module has an arrow to indicate the actual sync point on the bottom of the remote.
SYNCHRONIZATION (Continued) Checking the Remote for Synchronization with Base Modules Press and hold the Remote Push Button until all four LED’s light and release the push button.
1. No LED – No LED will be witnessed while the Base Module is connected to the unit unless there is an active alert. 2. Solid Green LED – A Solid green LED indicates that the unit is in running mode. 3. Solid Red LED – A solid red LED indicates that the unit is in a Fault condition. 4. Solid Orange LED – A solid orange LED indicates that the process has been completed. 5.
NOTE: The vibration and audible beep will operate for a maximum of (1) minute to help preserve battery life. The LED will continue to flash the received alert until the status changes. SILENCE -or- SNOOZE MODE: If required, the remote’s audible and vibration feature can be momentarily disabled after a signal is recognized by holding the Remote Push Button until all four LED’s light and release. The signal will still be received and indicated by the LED.
Remote Deep Sleep Mode This mode is useful when the Remote Module will be “out of range” for extended periods of time. In sleep mode, the remote will not respond to any signals from any synchronized Base Module. To enter sleep mode, press and hold the Remote Push Button for (5) consecutive flashes of all (4) LED’s and then release the push button. After (5) consecutive flashes of a (4) LED’s, the remote is in deep sleep mode.
