Introduction
The ERA-UTX is a Universal Transmitter compatible with all ERA series
receivers. When the ERA-UTX is triggered (see one of the three
methods below), it sends a radio signal, up to 4,000 feet line of sight, to
a compatible receiver.
It must be used in conjunction with a compatible ERA series receiver to
function properly.
The ERA-UTX may be purchased individually or may be in a kit. The
ERA-UTX has several methods of activation.
• A push button that can be used as a panic button or doorbell
button. It is activated when the center gray button is pressed.
• There is also a magnetic contact that can be used for doors or
windows. When the door or window is opened, the transmitters is
triggered.
• The ERA-UTX also has terminals for a normally open (N/O) or
normally closed (N/C) input. These inputs can be used with any
detector contacts. Do not connect a lighted doorbell button to the
ERA-UTX or it will drain the battery.

The transmitter works with all ERA series of receivers. At the time of this
user manual, this is the ERA-DCRX, ERA-RXPG, and the ERA-VPRX.
Each receiver has a slightly different way to put it into "programming
mode." Once the receiver is in programming mode, the receiver's
manual will instruct you to "trigger the transmitter," which is outlined
in step #4 below.
Once the transmitter is successfully programmed to the receiver, follow
the receiver's manual to change the melody, program an additional
transmitter to the receiver, or exit programming mode.
1. Ensure the battery is installed in the ERA-UTX transmitter.
2. Ensure the receiver you are programming the transmitter to is
powered up and working correctly.
3. Put the receiver in programming mode.
4. Trigger the ERA-UTX by pressing the center gray button. The red
LED under the gray center should light for approximately 2 seconds.
5. The receiver will respond to notify you this transmitter has been
successfully programmed. Consult the specific receiver's manual.
6. Follow the receiver's instruction manual to end programming or to
programm an additional transmitter.
