User Manual

Whenever a ‘MINDA’ transmitter operates, the actual digital data message transmitted contains
all of the following pieces of information, repeated a number of times:
< I am a ‘MINDA’ transmitter >
and
< My Family Identity Code is ‘xxx’ >
and
< I am Unit No. ‘y’ >
and
< My alarm status is ‘Red/Green’ >
and
< My battery status is ‘OK/Low’ >
If the first two pieces of data in the above message exactly match the information programmed
into a ‘MINDA’ receiver, then the rest of the information will be decoded and displayed on the
LEDs. If they do not match, the entire message is ignored.
GUARANTEE
Tactical Technologies Inc. guarantees to make good any faults due to defective materials or
workmanship for a period of 12 months from the date of purchase. Where the fault is the result of
misuse, negligence or inexpert repair, Tactical Technologies Inc. reserve the right to make a
charge to cover the extra costs involved.
RE-PROGRAMMING OF OPTIONS
The configuration of an RX-500 ‘Maxi-MINDA’ receiver, and any of the ‘MINDA’ range of
intelligent transmitters, can be changed by re-programming them using a PC and a ‘MINDA’
custom-designed interface. This work requires some specialist technical knowledge as well as
access to a PC and peripherals and, for this reason, most customers will probably find it more
convenient to return the equipment to Tactical Technologies Inc. for re-programming.
Those customers who do have in-house technical expertise and sufficient ‘MINDA’ units to make
an investment in programming software cost-effective, may wish to consider purchasing the
special ‘MINDA’ programming kit which comprises hardware interface cables and connectors,
custom software on disk, and full instructions. Further details and prices on this kit can be
obtained from Tactical Technologies Inc.
PRE-PROGRAMMED SETTINGS
The specific options and settings that were programmed into this RX-500 ‘Maxi-MINDA’ receiver
at the time of its manufacture are listed and set out in Appendix 1.
Please remember
always to amend this listing to show any subsequent changes made by re-
programming the equipment.
