Quick Start; Connecting Power; T24-Hs; Transmitter Module - Mantracourt T24-ACMi-SA User Manual

Quick Start

This section will show you how to get the module pair working out of the box.
You will require two AA alkaline batteries for the handheld and a 3 Volt dc supply for the transmitter module
which may also be a pair of AA batteries.

Connecting Power

T24-HS

Remove the two screws on the rear battery compartment. Insert two alkaline AA batteries. Refit the battery
compartment cover. The handheld module is now switched on so should be turned off until the transmitter
module is ready. To turn off just hold down the power key until the display shows BUSY then release it.

Transmitter Module

See the relevant transmitter module manual section for information about connecting power.

Pairing

You will use automatic pairing to prove the connectivity and operation. Pairing sets the communications
configuration parameters to allow the two modules to communicate. You do not need a PC or laptop or any
configuration software to perform basic pairing.
Ensure that transmitter module is not powered.

You need to turn on the T24-HS in pairing mode. To do this you start with it turned off. Whilst pressing

the power key press the tare key as well until 'PAIRING' is seen on the display. The keys can now be
released.
Now apply power to the transmitter module within 10 seconds.

If successful the T24-HS will pair to the transmitter module and the display will show a numeric value. (Or

Error 2 if the input integrity has failed. For example if the transmitter module is a T24-SA and the strain
gauge is not connected).
If the display shows Failed or -------- then the pairing failed. Try again.
Once successful the T24-HS will be linked to the transmitter module and will send it to sleep when the handheld
is turned off and wake it when the handheld is turned on.
Remember that from this point onwards to turn the handheld on you just need to press and hold the power key
as the pairing function is no longer required. Pairing was just used as a method of setting the transmitter module
to the radio settings already configured in the handheld.
