RQT-KEYFOB Operation
When operating a
keyfob transmitter the
best performance is
achieved with the
keyfob held between
the thumb and
forefinger, with the
top of the keyfob
uncovered and
vertical (as shown)
It is important to
understand that only
one keyfob
transmitter at a time can be activated within a reception
area. While the transmitted signal consists of encoded
digital data, only one carrier of any particular frequency
can occupy airspace without contention at any given
time. If two transmitters are activated in the same area at
the same time, then the signals will interfere with each
other and the decoder will not see a valid transmission,
so it will not take any action.
The effective range of a Ritron keyfob is similar to that of
a garage door opener. Range will be affected by
obstructions, if the keyfob is in your pocket, or how the
keyfob is held.
The location of the RQT transmitter can help extend the
range of the RQT-433-RCVR.
RQT-KEYFOB Battery Replacement
The keyfob
utilizes a
standard
CR2032 lithium
button cell. In
normal use, it
can provide up to
1 year of
operation.
Access for
replacement is
accomplished by
gently prying
apart the two
halves of the
keyfob at the
seam (fingernails
will do for this).
Once the unit is open, remove the battery by sliding it
out from beneath the retainer.
There may be the risk of explosion if the battery is
replaced by the wrong type. Replace it with the same
type of battery while observing the polarity shown in the
adjacent figure.
