A=Next Function
B#1,8001231234
This screen allows the installer to change the telephone number that the ACU will dial to call the
Central Computer. When this screen is displayed, pressing the "A" button will move to the next screen.
If the "B" button is pressed, a flashing cursor is displayed over the first character of the telephone
number. This indicates that the display is now in "edit mode". While in edit mode, pressing the "B"
button will change the character under the cursor. Pressing the "B" button repeatedly will cycle through
the valid characters (0-9, a # symbol, a * symbol, a comma - used to insert a two-second pause into the
dialling sequence; or a space - to erase unnecessary characters). While in the edit mode, pressing the
"A" button steps through the character positions from left to right, until the last (fourteenth) character is
reached. At this point, pressing the "A" button will cause the screen to exit “edit mode” and move to the
next option.

B=Set Range 100
This screen enables the installer to limit the range the ACU will detect the presence of the iTX. If
transmissions are received from the iTX with a signal strength less than the value set in the ACU, the
transmission will be ignored. The value may be set between 0 - 255. (Note: Strategic does not
recommend settings at the minimum or maximum.) Place the ACU in Test Mode to determine the
value to set in the ACU. Have the participant stand at the outer limit of the area of confinement and
note the value displayed. This value minus 30 points is the number which will be set into this ACU.
(For example: 150 (the number displayed) - 30 = 120 (set this number in the ACU)) A value of 0
indicates all transmissions will be valid. Place the ACU back into the Extended Function Mode. To
set the value press B and a cursor will appear under the first digit of the setting. Press B to increment
the current digit and press A to move to the next digit.

B=Set PID: T17304
This screen allows the installer to change the number of the iTX installed on the participant. This is
useful for cases where the iTX has been lost or broken, and a replacement iTX with a different code
must be used. This screen operates similarly to the telephone number screen. When this screen is
displayed, pressing the "A" button will move to the next screen. If the "B" button is pressed, a flashing
cursor is displayed over the first character of the iTX code. This indicates that the display is now in "edit
mode". While in “edit mode”, pressing the "B" button will change the number under the cursor. Pressing
the "B" button repeatedly will cycle the digit under the cursor from 0 to 9. While in the edit mode,
pressing the "A" button steps through the digits from left to right, until the last digit is reached. At this
point, pressing the "A" button causes the screen to exit “edit mode” and move to the next option.
