TEST mode
DIP switch #4 on the SIM (see illustration on page 4) is the TEST DIP-switch.
Switch it to the ON position using a ball-point pen or paper clip. This puts the
transmitter in Test Mode. An LED indicator light will flash each time it trans-
mits:
The LED will immediately flash once to show that the light itself functions.
Then it will flash each time the transmitter broadcasts a signal, which should be
every 10 seconds.
If the LED flashes only once and then remains dark, there is a problem with the
transmitter. See "Contacting Davis Instruments" on page 10.
If the LED flashes repeatedly but your console isn't picking up a signal any-
where in the room, it could be related to one of the following causes:
1. The DIP switches were not correctly set on the transmitter.
Review the procedure on page 4.
2. The ID was not correctly set on the console/receiver.
Review the procedure on page 5.
3. Reception is being disrupted by RF (radio frequency) interference.
4. There is a problem with the console/receiver.
See "Contacting Davis Instruments" on page 10.
Note: Remember to turn the Test DIP switch OFF when you're finished testing wireless transmis-
sion. If it is left ON, the blinking LED will reduce battery life significantly.
