HD indoors and out of contact with water and other liquids. 4.2 Connect The DX-RJM-HD is a DX Secondary Remote. It must be installed in a DX System that already has a DX Power Module and a DX Master Remote.
As a general guideline select RJM for Drive Profile 1, 2 and 3, and Master for Drive Profile 4 and 5. This will activate use of the DX-RJM-HD in the first three Drive Profiles, and the Master Remote (usually joystick operation) in Drive Profile 4 and 5. Drive Profile 4 and 5 can then be used either by an attendant, or as an alternative control for the user.
