Getting Started

Installing/Changing Batteries

To install batteries into the NaviTrack Brick line
transmitter, rotate the knob on the battery holder
counter-clockwise until the battery holder door
unscrews. Pull straight back on the knob to remove
the cover. Insert the 6 "C" batteries as shown on the
inside decals .
Figure 3: Battery Orientation and Cover
Fit the cover into the case and push down firmly while
turning down the knob clockwise to close. Ensure the
cover is firmly screwed into place.
Note: When replacing batteries use 6 C cells that
are the same type. Do not mix Alkaline with NiCd
(NiCad or Nickel Cadmium) for example. Be sure
to replace with batteries where all of the cells have
the same amount of charge. Do not use half used
alkalines with brand new.
Always remove batteries entirely before
shipping the Brick.

Operation Time

Typical operation time varies for the Brick line
transmitter, depending on factors such as load, and
current transmitted. Other factors that affect the
operation time will include chemistry of the battery
(many of the new high performance batteries, such
as the "Duracell ® ULTRA" last 10%-20% longer than
conventional alkaline cells under high demand

applications). Operation at low temperatures will also
reduce battery life.
Batteries often recover after being subjected to high
loads. If time is allowed, batteries may recover
enough to offer additional hours of operation.

Powering Up / Down

Turn the power ON by depressing the Power
on the keypad. The current frequency and power-
level LEDs will light up. A beep will sound.
Power the unit OFF by depressing the Power
on the keypad for 2 seconds. Three tones will sound.
Automatic Shut Down
To save energy, the NaviTrack Brick will
automatically shutdown after an interval which varies
with the power setting:
Low Power
4 hours
Medium Power 2 hours
High Power
1 hour

Battery Check

At start-up, the Brick will check available power and
will indicate estimated battery levels by lighting one,
two, or three LEDs in the right hand column (power
level) on the control panel. One LED indicates low
batteries, two indicates medium charge, and three
LEDs indicates full battery charge is available. These
levels are only estimates based on a rapid internal
check. A rapid series of beeps will sound if the
battery levels run low in operation.

They include:
Beeps – Beeps when current is flowing; rate
increases with current increase.
