Operation as a Manual Reset Device (MRD)
Starting/Resetting a Transmitter
The officer should bring the following equipment to a transmitter installation:
Transmitter
Male and female Clips
MRD
Strap holder
Locking tool
Flat-head screwdriver
Calibration of the transmitter
Before any transmitter installation, the transmitter has to be turned-on and calibrated. When the HMRU
is connected, do the following:
1. Stand next to the HMRU to be able to hear the audible confirmation of the calibration.
2. Hold the transmitter in your hand with the 4 metal pins (2 pairs, along the strap) pointing forward.
3. Hold the MRD in your other hand, with the black button pointing toward the end of the strap.
4. Press the MRD down over one of the pairs of metal pins (it does not matter which) with the two
touch points on the MRD matching the pair of metal pins on the transmitter.
5. To turn-on (or reset) the transmitter press the RED ON button down for one second, the red light
turns steadily ON for two (2) seconds.
6. If the transmitter successfully received the reset command the red light, on the MRD, willflashfor
two (2) seconds.
7. Note that if the transmitter has failed to receive the reset command the red light willturnoff after
the initial two (2) seconds of being ON.
8. If the MRD battery is low the red light will immediately flash for two (2) seconds, once the red
button is pressed. (No command is sent to the transmitter).
Place the transmitter on the side on a non-metal tableand wait 30 to 60 seconds, until audible beeps
are heard from the HMRU. These beeps mean that the transmitter has successfully completed its self-
calibration process and is ready to be mounted on the offender.

Turning a Transmitter OFF
The MRD is used for turning the transmitter off, after it has been removed from the offender. To
remove the Transmitter perform the following steps:
1. Check to see if the Clip has been tampered with.
** Be aware of the following signs:
-Cracks on the clips.
-Broken pins.
-Sign of adhesive or glue.
2. Use a screwdriver to brake the disposable Clips.
** Be careful not to damage or cut the strap.
3. Collect all the fragments of the Clip. Do not leave disposable items.
4. Don’t forget the Strap Holder.
5. To turn off the transmitter perform the following:
Hold the transmitter in your hand with the 4 metal pins (2 pairs, along the strap) pointing
forward.
Hold the MRD in your other hand, with the black button pointing toward the end of the strap.
Press the MRD down over one of the pairs of metal pins (it does not matter which) with the
two touch points on the MRD matching the pair of metal pins on the transmitter.
To turn the transmitter off, press the BLACK OFF button down for one second, the red light
turns steadily ON for two (2) seconds.
If the transmitter successfully received the shut down command the red light on the MRD will
flashfor two (2) seconds.
Note that if the transmitter has failed to receive the shut down command the red light will turn
off after the initial two (2) seconds of being ON.
If the MRD battery is low the red light will immediately flash for two (2) seconds, once the red
button is pressed. (No command is sent to the transmitter).
