SIGNAL RANGE
Max range statements are estimates based on a clear line of sight with few interferences. Actual range will
vary based on transmitting power, orientation of transmitter and receiver, height of transmitting and
receiving antennas, weather conditions, electronic interference, terrain, and physical obstacles, including
but not limited to; walls, building structures, trees (foliage), metal objects, and landscape (hills, mountains).
WIRELESS STOP SYSTEMS WORK IN CONJUCTION WITH
HARD-WIRED SYSTEMS.
Wireless Stop and E-Stop devices must work in conjunction with a hard-wired
system. A wireless system should never be considered a primary life-saving device.
At least one hard-wired switch must be available in the event the wireless signal is
lost. Failure to comply may result in serious injury or death to personnel and
damage to equipment.

INTRODUCTION
The Air-Eagle SR PLUS TX is a handheld R.F. transmitter capable of sending a single digital command to
an Air-Eagle SR Receiver located up to 600 feet away. Any number of transmitters and receivers can be
combined to create a medium-range radio frequency system that operates hazardous or hard-to-reach
equipment from safe, convenient locations. Eight user-programmable frequencies allow multiple systems
to operate simultaneously in the same area without interference. This transmitter will automatically go
into “sleep” mode when not in use to dramatically extend battery life.
INITIAL OPERATION SET-UP
This transmitter comes factory set to frequency 1, to operate relay 1 and transmitting at power level 4
(max range of 600 feet). If you wish to change the default settings, follow the instructions for
FREQUENCY PROGRAMMING, RELAY PROGRAMMING, AND POWER LEVEL PROGRAMMING
CONTROLS & INDICATORS
TX LED
LED illuminates “RED” continuously while button is depressed and unit is
transmitting. When this LED blinks briefly following a transmission, the
battery needs to be replaced. See Note #1
Note #1 –The low battery notification signals have been improved to provide more noticeable
indications and to safely disable communications BEFORE a low battery condition can corrupt internal
memory causing device failure. When a low battery is first detected, the TX LED will blink several times
after all buttons are released. If it is possible to replace the batteries now, please do so. If not, the
operator has approximately 15 more button activations. During this time, when a button is depressed
and held, the TX LED will blink SLOWLY. The slow blinking will continue several more times after all
buttons are released. Transmissions are still being sent to the receiver during this time. When a button
is depressed and the TX LED is RAPIDLY blinking, the RF output is disabled and NO signal will reach
the receiver. The batteries MUST NOW BE REPLACED to resume normal functions.

FREQUENCY PROGRAMMING
Please read through these instructions completely before beginning programming procedure!
All transmitters are set to Frequency 1 by default. The frequency can be changed at any time by following
the procedure below. Once changed, we recommend labeling the transmitter with the selected frequency
number. Frequency settings will not be changed during normal battery replacement.
The TX LED guides you through the programming procedure. To change the setting, follow these steps:
To select from Frequencies 1 thru 8:
1. Remove the battery cover from the back of the transmitter
2. Remove ONE of the batteries from the holder (be sure to note polarity so it is re-inserted properly
in the following steps)
3. Using one hand, depress and hold down Button 1 on the transmitter. While holding button down,
re-insert the battery into the holder.
4. With Button 1 still depressed and battery in holder, keep the button pressed for 5 seconds until
the LED turns RED.
5. Release Button 1 and the TX LED will begin to blink. As shown in chart below, the TX LED will
blink RED for frequencies 1 thru 4 and will blink GREEN for frequencies 5 thru 8.
6. To set the frequency, you must momentarily press Button 1 immediately after the LED has
blinked the number of times for the desired frequency. For example, to set to frequency 6, you
release Button 1 and watch as the LED blinks RED four times, then GREEN twice, THEN
quickly press the button to set the TX to frequency 6.
Press Button Immediately After:
To Set Unit To:
The First RED Flash
Frequency 1
The Second RED Flash
Frequency 2
The Third RED Flash
Frequency 3
The Fourth RED Flash
Frequency 4
The First GREEN Flash
Frequency 5
The Second GREEN Flash
Frequency 6
The Third GREEN Flash
Frequency 7
The Fourth GREEN Flash
Frequency 8
7. Once you have momentarily pressed the button to set the frequency, the TX LED will confirm
your selection by blinking the numbers of times for the frequency that was set. (Note, if the
confirmation shows the incorrect frequency, simply restart the programming from Step 1.
8. Once the proper selection has been confirmed, programming is complete. Replace battery cover
tightly.
NOTE –if you fail to select a frequency during the programming procedure the transmitter will blink the
frequency currently set in the transmitter as shown in the chart above. This can be used to view the
transmitter’s frequency without changing it.
Programming is now complete, and the transmitter is active for normal operation.
You may repeat the above procedure if you wish to change the frequency at any time.

RELAY PROGRAMMING
Please read through these instructions completely before beginning programming procedure!
All transmitters are set to operate Relay 1 in the remote receiver by default. The relay to be operated can
be changed at any time by following the procedure below. Once changed, we recommend labeling the
transmitter with the selected relay number. If unsure of which relay the transmitter is set to operate,
follow steps 1 thru 6 below. Relay settings will not be changed during normal battery replacement.
To view which Relay unit is set to operate:
1. Remove the battery cover from the back of the transmitter.
2. Remove ONE of the batteries from the holder (be sure to note polarity so it is re-inserted properly
in the following steps).
3. Using one hand, depress and hold down Button 1 on the transmitter. While holding button down,
re-insert the battery into the holder.
4. With Button 1 still depressed and battery in holder, keep the button pressed for 5 seconds until
the LED turns RED.
5. Keep holding Button 1 in until the LED turns GREEN.(about 3 more seconds).
6. Release button and wait while the LED stays GREEN for about 8 seconds, goes out, then begins
to blink. The LED will then blink GREEN the number of times equal to the relay number it is set to
operate.
To select the Relay you wish to operate:
1. Remove the battery cover from the back of the transmitter.
2. Remove ONE of the batteries from the holder (be sure to note polarity so it is re-inserted properly
in the following steps).
3. Using one hand, depress and hold down Button 1 on the transmitter. While holding button down,
re-insert the battery into the holder.
4. With Button 1 still depressed and battery in holder, keep the button pressed for 5 seconds until
the LED turns RED.
5. Keep holding Button 1 in until the LED turns GREEN. (about 3 more seconds).
6. Release button and quickly press the number of times equal to the relay number you wish to
operate.
7. Once you stop pressing for three seconds, the LED will blink back GREEN the number of times of
the relay it’s now controlling to confirm your selection.
8. If you didn’t make the proper relay selection, you must repeat the procedure beginning at Step 3.
You may repeat the above procedure anytime you wish to change which relay the transmitter is to
operate.
