TESTING AND CARE
Transmitter
Testing
Do not use the transmitter tester on a
transmitter with an expiration date that has
expired. Results may not be accurate.
All steps are mandatory.
CAUTION: You must test all transmitters
prior to use to verify proper operation. This
includes every time that the band is
replaced. Failure to test the transmitters
before use can result in system failure
and/or an abduction or elopement. In
addition, failure to test transmitters voids the
RF Technologies Product Warranty
Visual
Inspection
1. Verify that the warranty expiration date
that is stamped on the transmitter is not
expired.
2. Visually inspect the transmitter for
damage or loose parts.
3. Attach a band to the transmitter (See
Banding).
4. If inspecting an Umbilical Cord
transmitter, use the activation wand to
activate the transmitter before testing.
Operation
Test the operation of the transmitter using
the Transmitter Tester. The transmitter
tester will detect whether or not a transmitter
is emitting a signal, but cannot indicate the
strength of the signal.
