With the R1 receiver you can check the status of the transmitter:
If the F22 transmitter is powered on, the receiver will receive signal pulses.
If the F22 transmitter has a low battery, the receiver will produce an audible signal indi-
cating the low battery.
If the F22 transmitter has an empty battery, the receiver will receive no signal and thus

Tracking system

What
A tracking system generally consists of a transmitter and a receiver. By inserting the trans-
mitter in the body of the X100, you are able to track down and find the X100 when lost.
The transmitter sends its location to the receiver over radio waves. No satellites are used
during this communication. Once the receiver has picked up this signal, you can determine
your course based on the direction and intensity of the received signal.
Tinyloc tracking system
Gatewing uses the Tinyloc tracking system, which consists of the F22 transmitter and the R1
receiver.
