Charging and Installing Batteries

The Sensor is powered by four AA-size batteries (1.2~1.5V). You may use the four AA-size
1.2V NiMH batteries provided with the Sensor, or you may use AA-size alkaline batteries
(1.5V). Before using your Sensor, make sure the batteries are fully charged.
The Sensor is reverse voltage protected: installing batteries backwards cannot damage it. If
the batteries are backwards, simply reverse the battery connector.
Also inside the battery compartment is the 4 wire Receiver Programming Cable. This cable
can be plugged into the receiver's TACH pins in order to upgrade the software on the receiver.
The RC Desktop will instruct you when a software upgrade is available.

When using the supplied NiMH batteries, charge the batteries for 12-14 hours (using the
supplied charger) before using the Sensor. Be sure to get the polarity correct when installing
the batteries into the charger.

Installing the Batteries

Installing the Batteries Installing the Batteries Installing the Batteries
1. Slide and remove the battery compartment cover at the
bottom of the Sensor.
2. Remove the battery holder.
NOTE:
The battery holder wires connect to a receptacle in the
battery compartment.
It is not necessary to unplug the connector when you remove
the battery holder. However, if you do unplug the connector,
note its orientation first. If you plug it in wrong, your Sensor
will not turn on - no damage will be done to your Sensor, just
remove and reverse it.
3. Install the batteries in the battery holder. Observe proper
polarity.
4. Plug the battery holder connector into the receptacle in the
battery compartment. The red wire (+) goes toward the front
panel of the Sensor. If you get the connector wrong, your
Sensor will not turn on but no damage will be done – just
remove and reverse the connector.
5. Place the battery holder in the battery compartment. Make
sure the wires do not pinch.
6. Slide the battery compartment cover into place.
