1. Foreword
The Ankle Tag (TXL-700) is a transmitter used in home arrest
systems.
The Ankle Tag (LSQ-TXL-700) is transmitting on an American
FCC tested and approved frequency; whereas the European
version (TXL-700-2) is transmitting on a European tested and
approved frequency. From a user interface and function point of
view the two models are identical; therefore this user manual
serves both versions.

Electronic Key down for
one second; the red light
turns steadily on for two
(2) seconds.

Note that if the Tag has failed to receive the startup command the
red light will turn off after the initial two (2) seconds ON.
If the Electronic Key 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 Tag on its side, on a non-metal surface, for 30 seconds.
Attaching the Transmitter
Place a strap holder over the short strap
(strap with pin side) of the Transmitter.
Attach the female Clip to the underside
of the Transmitter’s short strap (to lie
against the Offenders skin). Check that
the closed end of the clip fits with the
edge of the strap and make sure the
silver line is visible.
Wrap the Transmitter around the offender’s ankle at its narrowest
point ensuring that the protruding side of the Transmitter is
directed upwards.
Cover the female clip with the long strap
ensuring that all pins on the short strap
are protruding.
Slide the strap holder over the end of the
long strap in order to hold it in place.
Cover the female clip with the male clip
ensuring that the four pins on the male
clip fit correctly into the female clip (the
grooves on the side of each clip must
match).

Ask the Offender to stand up and move around to insure that the
Tag is comfortable.
Fasten the two Clips with the locking tool. Be sure to fasten all
the four pins well. An audible clicking sound should be heard,
indicating that the Clips are closed properly.
Don’t install the Tag over a thick sock, since the Tag will get
too loose once the sock is removed. If the Tag is installed
without a sock, instruct the offender that he should not put on a
very thick sock, and then try to pull it under the Tag. The
Offender may wear a thin sock underneath and a thick sock
over the Tag.

4.2. Ankle Tag Straps Replacement
Possible reasons for a replacing a strap could be:
• Visible damage to one or both straps.
• Reception of strap tamper alarms, with no visual reason
seen.
• Tag does not calibrate.
Turn the Tag off with the electronic key.
Using the supplied snake eye screwdriver, open the screw that
holds the strap clasp and remove the strap clasp.
Gently shake the strap loose from the Tag body. Be careful not to
damage the metal pins on the Tag body.
Position the new strap over the Tag body. Notice that the two
small holes on the strap have to lie exactly over the two metal
pins.
Gently place the strap down over the metal pins and press down
along the seam of the strap, snugly fitting the entire strap to the
Tag.
Put the strap clasp back in place (the wider side pointing in-
wards).
