First Steps and Buttons
Switching on
Briefl y press the ON/OFF button
During start-up, the unit performs an automatic check (then a self-test every 5 minutes).
The microprocessor, antennas, batteries and display are checked. Three beeps indicate
that the loudspeaker is working correctly.
At the same time, the LCD screen displays the selected W-Link region, the battery charge
(in %) and the data you recorded during initial start-up (surname, fi rst name, telephone
3
numbers, etc.)
The device then enters transmit mode. The green diode on the side fl ashes to show the
device is working correctly. The transmit sign on the screen fl ashes.
Just before it starts transmitting, the device offers to run a Group Check
check, press on the centre button before the window disappears.
If you press on the centre button, the device switches to Analogue mode with minimal
reception (the equivalent of about 1 metre) to check the whole group. Each group member
must switch to transmit mode in front of this "test" device. The tester must then switch
his device to transmit mode and check it is working too.
Once the tests are done, you can exit this function by pressing the centre button. If you do
nothing, the device will automatically switch to transmit mode after 5 minutes.
If the device detects an anomaly, it gives a long 5-second beep. This long beep is repeated
5 and 10 minutes later.
There are 3 possible explanations:
• Battery charge has dropped to 20% (the device can still transmit for 48 hours or search
for 30 minutes). To warn you, the device gives a long 5-second beep. This long beep is
repeated 5 and 10 minutes later.
• Technical problem (transmission or program). After a long 5-second beep, the LCD
screen displays "Error"; this long beep is repeated 5 and 10 minutes later. If this occurs,
do not exit a run with the device. Contact your nearest reseller.
• 457 kHz Emission power failure : if the transmission power is getting too low, the fol-
lowing message will appear : PROBLEME EMISSION 457 kHz. If the failure is temporally
(due to the proximity of a large amount of metal), there's only one message. If the failure
is permanent, the message will be displayed every fi ve minutes (electronic problem). If this
occurs, do not exit a run with the device. Contact your nearest reseller.
Switching off the device
Briefl y press the ON/OFF button
to validate switch-off. To validate, press the centre button
Transmit/receive selector
The centre switch is locked in the up position (transmit)
To switch to receive mode, press the centre button and slide it down. The word SEARCH
becomes visible: you are now in Search mode. To revert to transmit mode, switch the
centre button to the up position, where it will relock mechanically.
The device can be in transmit mode while the selector switch is in the down position,
especially after the software automatically reverts to transmit mode (see p.11). In this
case, to correctly change to receive mode: fi rstly reset the switch to transmit mode, then
change to receive mode.
