clockwise, it will pop up (transmitter power on).
4) Let go PB1 and PB2 at the same time. The Status LED
displays current channel setting with red and green blinks. A
green blink represents the tens (+10) and a red blink
represents the units (+1). For example, 1 green blink followed by 5 red blinks is
channel 15. LED-A also lights up during channel setting mode.
5) Change transmitter channel by pressing PB1 to increment the units (+1) and PB2 to
increment the tens (+10). For example, press PB2 two times and then PB1 four times
is channel 24 (Status LED blinks 2 greens and 4 reds). Make sure the newly selected
channel is shown on the Status LED before proceeding to the next step below.
6) Transfer the newly selected channel to the receiver by press and hold the START
button until the Status LED turns to constant green (transfer complete). Press
down the STOP button if constant green is not shown on the Status LED after more
than 10 seconds (transfer incomplete); the transmitter will revert back to its
previous channel setting. Make sure the receiver power is turned on and within the
