Static Correction and Battery Test Feature
When the RFA-188 Battery Module is fi rst installed in the Receiver, the red LED
will fl ash the current correction level setting (1-5). For the next 30 seconds, the
receiver will monitor the battery status and will either fl ash the green LED once
every 5 seconds to indicate a good battery, or fl ash the red LED once every 5
seconds to indicate a low battery condition.
After the 30 second battery test period, the green LED will cease to fl ash if the
battery is good. If the battery was low during the test period, the red LED will
continue to fl ash at a rate of 1 fl ash every 20 seconds to indicate a low battery
condition. In this situation, battery replacement is recommended.
