Page 9: Fixing Voyager Rf Id Numbers
FIXING VOYAGER RF ID NUMBERS This section explains how to fix an Identifier number to each Voyager RF. Basically, each Base Station can work with up to 5 VoyagerRF’s at the same time. To enable this facility, an Identifier Number (ID) must be configured to each Voyager RF. - Page 10 The system is ready to work. Please note again, that each time a Voyager RF is activated, it indicates its ID number just before linking with Base Station with steady RED and GREEN LED’s whilst the YELLOW LED flashes an appropriate number of times in relation to its ID number.
