The Menu Item 'Last Range Test Result - GALAXIS SHOWTECHNIK PYROTEC PFE Advanced Mini 5 Outputs User Manual

TIP

The menu item 'Last Range Test Result'

You will enter this menu item with another activation of 'Mode'. This function is mainly intended for
users who are operating the transmitter PFS Profi or PFS Pocket. The new controller PFC Advanced
is now offering the comfort of requesting the result of the range test remotely.
This function comes in handy if you do the set-up of the system without a helping person. After starting
a range test at the transmitter the receivers are displaying the results for approx. 10 seconds.
Within this short period of time you can not check the results of many different receivers all over the
place. This function enables you to ease this task.
Proceed this way:
- Switch on the receivers and start a range test at the controller.
- Go to each receiver, step through the menu and read the result which is being displayed under
'Last range test result'. This value has been displayed during the test.
- You can do another test if you like after reading all results.
TIP
The next menu item is the entry point for the submenu. This is explained in the section 'submenu' in
this manual.
You can use this menu item for a range test, too. Activate the firing mode
at your controller PFS Profi, PFS Pocket or PFC Advanced. The device is
now measuring the signal strength of your controller. By changing the
location of the receiver, you can try to find out which installation is best.
You should definitely switch off the firing mode before you quit the menu
and always make sure that there is no unintended activation of the firing
button at the controller during the range test.
This means that there is no result stored in the memory of the device. There
are several possibilities: Maybe no range test was made so far or the device
was not within the radio coverage area. Another reason could be that the
result has just been cleared by invoking this menu item before.
In this example the signal level was 65%. Values below 30% are critical. If
this should be the case please refer to the instructions in the section 'Radio
range' in this manual.
The result is being cleared after stepping through the menu to ensure
that the same result is not being displayed again after the next range test
although the receiver is possibly out of reach. If you are using this
function it is essential to read all the old results before starting a new test
to make sure that they are all being cleared!
