10. Setting up the Transmitter
Important note:
In the further course of these instructions, figures in the text always refer to the adjacent figure or the figures
within the section. References to other figures are indicated with the corresponding figure number.
a) Aligning the Transmitter Aerial
Angle the transmitter's aerial (see figure 1, item 1) to the side, so that the aerial is at a 90° angle to the imagined
connection line remote control/model.
If the receiver aerial in the model is aligned horizontally, also adjust the transmitter aerial horizontally (see figure 1). If
the receiver aerial in the model is aligned vertically, also adjust the transmitter aerial vertically. The tip of the transmit-
ter aerial then points towards the head of the remote control system operator during model operation. This is how you
will achieve best signal transmission to the model.
Transmission to the model is lowest when you point the transmitter aerial tip at the model. This must be avoided in
any case.
Also do not touch the transmitter aerial in model operation. This reduces the transmission output and therefore also
the transmitter range.
b) Inserting the Batteries/Rechargeable Batteries
For the power supply of the transmitter you will need 4 batteries (e.g. Conrad item no. 652507, pack of 4,
order 1x) or rechargeable batteries mignon size (AA). For ecological and also for economical reasons it is recommend-
ed to use rechargeable batteries, since they can be recharged in the transmitter via a built-in charging socket (see
figure 1, item 7).
Proceed as follows to insert the batteries or rechargeable batteries:
The battery compartment lid (1) is located on the back of the
transmitter. Press the corrugated area (2) and push off the
lid downwards.
Ensure that the polarity is correct when inserting the 4 bat-
teries/rechargeable batteries. A corresponding note (3) is
located on the bottom of the battery compartment.
Only the four middle battery compartments are equipped.
The two shafts to the right and left remain empty.
Then slide the lid of the battery compartment back on from
the bottom until the locking mechanism engages.
