SCORPION DIGITAL GAME CALL
MODEL X1-A SCORPION
Congratulations on the purchase of the FOXPRO
®
Scorpion digital wildlife
caller! You have chosen a product that was engineered to give years of trouble
free service. Please take time to read and understand the information in this
instruction manual. This will ensure that you receive the maximum benefit from
your new FOXPRO
®
Scorpion.
FEATURES
1. Injection Molded Fiberglass Reinforced ABS housing
2. Low Battery Indicator / Pilot LED
3. Charger Jack
4. Two External Speaker Jacks
5. Auxiliary Jack

QUICK OPERATING GUIDE
Since the Scorpion is shipped from the factory without batteries installed, the
first step is to install 8 “AA” batteries. These may be alkaline or rechargeable
types.
NOTE: We strongly recommend high capacity NiMH rechargeable batteries
over alkaline types for maximum performance, particularly when using loud
volume levels. Never attempt to recharge alkaline batteries! Doing so either
accidently or purposefully will void the warranty.
To install batteries:
1. Unlatch the door (latches are found on the side of the unit.) Orient the
batteries as per the directions shown in each cavity within the holder.
NOTE: The battery polarity alternates.
2. Close the top of the unit and press the latches until they “click,” which
will keep the unit closed securely after the batteries are installed.
The TX-200 transmitter operates from a 9-volt battery. Please use a high
quality alkaline battery.
Installing the Transmitter battery:
NOTE: This battery will last a long time and needs to be replaced when the
transmitter fails to operate the caller or when the battery level reads low on
the TX-200 display.
1. Remove the battery compartment cover located on the rear of the
transmitter.
2. Connect the 9V battery to the connector plug and orient the battery in
the transmitter.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.

TURNING ON THE CALLER
To operate the Scorpion:
1. Turn on the TX-200 transmitter by moving the switch on the rear of the
transmitter to the right, or “ON” position (the graphic LCD display will
illuminate on the transmitter and display the first six sounds stored in
the playlist starting with 000).
2. To turn on the caller, depress and hold the TX-200 transmitter “AUX”
button for five seconds (the green Scorpion pilot indicator will illuminate
indicating that the caller has turned on).
3. Select the sound you wish to play by turning the rotary selector knob on
the top of the transmitter either clockwise, which will scroll up or
counter-clockwise which scrolls down.
4. Once the desired sound is highlighted depressing the selector knob will
cause the sound to play.
NOTE: When scrolling up or down, the playlist will change in pages. When the
sound desired appears in the displayed list, highlight the sound and press down
on the rotary selector knob. You will notice that the number associated with that
sound will appear in the bottom text line. This text line also displays the current
channel setting (which should be “B” from the factory), a mute indicator, volume
setting, battery monitor and timer. The top text line displays the preset buttons.
For more information on the text lines, see the TX-200 features section of this
instruction manual.
Now that you have selected the sound to be played, bring the volume up to
your desired level by depressing the “Volume up arrow” button. As you depress
this button, note that the volume setting number in the bottom text increases.
To mute the sound, press and release the mute button. An “M” will appear in
the bottom text. The mute also serves as a pause feature, meaning that when
you un-mute the sound again, it will start playing where you muted the sound
instead of starting over again. To change the sound, simply highlight your next
sound preference and depress the rotary selector knob. Your sound will
instantly change. Use the “AUX” button to activate a device such as a decoy
connected to the Scorpion “AUX” jack.
TURN OFF THE CALLER
1. Depress and hold the “MUTE” key for five seconds (the sound will stop,
and the green pilot LED will extinguish, indicating that it has turned off).
2. Turn the TX-200 transmitter off by moving the switch to the left, or
“OFF” position.
NOTE: If you forget to turn off the TX-200 transmitter when you are
finished, it will shut down the transmitter after two hours of non-use.

BATTERIES AND CHARGING
If for any reason you have to ship the Scorpion back to the factory, please be
sure to remove your batteries from the unit. Your Scorpion operates on 8 “AA”
batteries.
NOTE: For optimal performance and run times, we recommend high capacity
2500 mAh NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) rechargeable cells rather than alkaline
types. When you ask your Scorpion caller to play at extremely loud volume
levels, the current demand on the batteries is much more than alkaline cells
can deliver. Consequently, the run time of these batteries can be very short.
The Zinc Carbon so-called “Heavy Duty” cells are expressly NOT
recommended at all. The performance of your Scorpion will be much better with
high capacity NiMH batteries.
To install batteries:
Unlatch the door (latches are located on the side of the caller.) The battery
holder is located beneath this door. Be careful to observe battery polarity!
Install batteries and replace the holder into its original location. (Be sure that
the battery holder and the power wire are plugged together.)
NOTE: The cell polarity alternates. Batteries may be damaged if installed back-
wards. Double-check polarity before closing the door. NiMH batteries should be
charged before first use.
CHARGING
To charge the batteries:
1. Connect the FOXPRO
®
charger to the Scorpion charge jack (the green
“Low Battery” LED will illuminate to indicate charge activity.)
NOTE: Charge time will vary from one to seven hours depending on the
battery state of discharge.
2. When charging is complete disconnect the charger from the charge
jack on the Scorpion.
NOTE: The end of charger indication may be different if you are using the
FOXPRO
®
fast charger. See the instructions for this charger for more
information.
CAUTION: Never attempt to charge batteries that are not intended to be
recharged! This includes both Zinc Carbon and alkaline cells. The resulting
damage can be serious and will not be covered by the warranty. For maximum
charge efficiency, we recommend charging your Scorpion in temperatures
ranging from 40°F to 85°F (5°C to 30°C).
DO NOT connect any NON-FOXPRO
®
charger to the charge jack of the
Scorpion. The standard FOXPRO
®
300MA charger will charge fully depleted

batteries in 10 to 12 hours. In most cases, the charge will automatically stop
when a full charge is reached. Be aware that the green LED may or may not
extinguish when the batteries are fully charged. Your FOXPRO
®
unit
incorporates circuitry to terminate charge current if high battery temperatures
are detected. Battery temperatures increase at the end of the charge cycle. If
the temperature edges towards a dangerous level, the charge current will be
interrupted and the green LED will extinguish. If excessive temperature is not
detected, the green LED will not be extinguished. It is quite possible for the
batteries to be fully charged without their temperature rising to the dangerous
level. For this reason, the LED should not be considered as a “full charge”
indicator as it may or may not extinguish when the batteries are fully charged.
The batteries are fully charged any time their temperature rises substantially
above ambient. How long this takes depends on how much charge has been
taken from the batteries and how much time has passed since the last charge.
If the green LED goes out, the batteries are definitely charged. If the green LED
is on and the batteries are cool, they are still charging. If the green LED is on
and the batteries are very warm, they are fully charged and you should
terminate the charge by unplugging the charger. Because the Scorpions
internal battery management system includes circuitry to monitor the battery
temperature, the caller should remain closed and latched while charging. You
should not permit the charge to continue for more than 12 hours under
any circumstances.
Battery/Charging Recommendations
•Charge batteries with case closed and latched
•Remember that NiMH batteries self-discharge about 1% per day
•DO NOT charge batteries unattended
•Remove batteries from battery holder when caller will not be used for
prolonged periods to help prevent deep discharge.
“ AUX” JACK FUNCTION
The Scorpion is equipped with an auxiliary jack labeled “AUX”. The purpose of
this jack is to allow for the connection of certain external devices (which
includes the FOXPRO
®
Jack-in-the-Box Decoy) and the ability to turn these on
and off with the TX-200 remote control transmitter. However, there are some
strict electrical limits involved with this jack. If these limits are exceeded,
damage to your Scorpion will result. This damage is not covered by the
warranty. The electrically inclined will want to know that the jack is connected to
the drain of an internal Field Effect Transistor with a maximum current rating of
two Amperes. The “tip” polarity of the 3.5mm jack is positive, while the sleeve is
negative.
If the external device is connected with the polarity reversed, an internal
protection diode within the FET will conduct, causing the device to stay on
constantly. The maximum voltage applied to this jack must never exceed 15

volts. Instructions on connecting various devices to the “AUX” jack are beyond
the scope of this manual. You are urged to seek help from a knowledgeable
professional before connecting any unapproved device to this jack. Remember
that damage to your Scorpion caused by improper use of the “AUX” jack is not
covered by the warranty, nor will FOXPRO
®
be liable for damage to any device
connected to this jack. The normal use for this jack is to operate the FOXPRO
®
Jack-in-the-Box Decoy, or to start and stop a video recorder.
USING THE EXTERNAL SPEAKER JACKS
The Scorpion is equipped with two External Speaker Jacks, which allows you to
connect one or two additional speakers to your Scorpion caller. The internal
Mylar cone speaker performs admirably; however, you may encounter
situations that require higher sound levels. By connecting a larger external
speaker(s) to the Scorpion, the volume level can be increased significantly.
Connecting an External Speaker
Plug the connector of the external speaker into one of the Ext. Spkr. Jacks.
NOTE: This does not automatically disconnect the internal speaker. You may
want to let it play, although battery life will be better if you disable the internal
speaker. If you wish to have only the external speaker(s) produce sound, do the
following:
Disabling the Internal Speaker
Move the Internal Speaker Jumper on the PC board to “OFF”.
NOTE: Remember to reset this jumper when you disconnect the external
speaker (See FIGURE 1.1 on page 8).
Connecting two External Speakers
Plug the connectors of the external speakers into the provided Ext. Spkr jacks.
NOTE: With two speakers connected and the Speaker Jumper set to “ON” the
internal and both external speakers will play simultaneously. The Internal
Speaker and External Speaker “A” are connected to the same channel. When
you turn “OFF” Speaker “A” with the TX-200 remote, they are both turned off
together. By setting the Internal Speaker Jumper to “OFF”, which will disable
the internal speaker, and then you have the ability to have only the two external
speaker’s play. This will then allow you to turn “ON” and “OFF” the two external
speakers as you wish (See External Speaker Control with the TX-200
remote on Page 12).
The following diagram (FIGURE 1.0) shows the PC board which is found inside
the Scorpion. Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the

locations of the selection jumpers.
FIGURE 1.0
INTERNAL SPEAKER CONTROL
By disabling the internal speaker when using an external speaker(s), battery life
will be extended.
Disabling the Internal Speaker
1. Be sure that the power is turned “OFF.”
2. Locate the Internal Speaker Selector. (See FIGURE 1).
NOTE: The internal speaker selector is located below the USB port in the
upper left portion of the PC board.
3. Move the jumper to the left one pin or to “OFF.” This will disable the
internal speaker. (See FIGURE 1.1)
NOTE: Be sure to reposition this jumper to the “ON” position when an
external speaker(s) is not used.

FIGURE 1.1
CHANNEL SELECTION
The default channel for the Scorpion operation is “B”. Channel “C” is also
available for operation of the Scorpion if both the Scorpion and TX-200 are set
to that channel.
Changing the Channel on the Unit
1. Be sure that the power is turned “OFF.”
2. Locate the Channel Selection Box (See FIGURE 1).
3. Reposition the jumper to the new channel. Move the jumper to the right
one pin or to channel “C.” (See FIGURE 1.2)
NOTE: Be careful not to drop the jumper. Again, the Scorpion should be
set to the “B” channel from the factory, but can also operate from the “C”
channel. If your Scorpion is set to the “B” channel, the TX-200 must be on
the “B” channel as well. The same rule applies with the “C” channel. The
current channel is displayed on the bottom status line of the TX-200
transmitter.
Changing the Channel on the TX-200 Transmitter
1. Turn “ON” the transmitter.
2. Simultaneously depress the P3 and P4 buttons.
NOTE: This then allows you to toggle between the “A”, “B”, and “C”
channels of operation. Remember that the TX-200 will not operate the
Scorpion on channel “A”.
FIGURE 1.2

MONO/STEREO MODE
The factory default mono mode is best for most situations. This mode combines
both right (A) and left (B) channels and delivers the combined sounds to the
internal speaker and to both external speakers.
NOTE: Mono mode should be selected if no external speakers are
connected. If you use an external speaker(s) and intend to silence the
speakers separately, then stereo mode must be used.
Entering “STEREO” Mode
1. Be sure the power is turned “OFF.”
2. Locate the Mono/Stereo Selector. (See FIGURE 1)
3. Reposition the jumper in the Mono/Stereo Box.
Move the jumper down one pin or to “STEREO” mode. This will enable
stereo mode (see FIGURE 1.3)
FIGURE 1.3
Although most calling sounds are recorded in mono, some interesting scenarios
are possible if you have the means to record your own stereo sounds. For
instance, you could record a lost sheep on the right channel and a snarling
coyote on the left channel. By connecting an external speaker to the Scorpion
you could have the sheep sound coming from the internal speaker and the
coyote sound coming from the external speaker. This would give the
impression that two physically separate animals were involved. In addition, your
Scorpion will allow you to silence either of the speakers, that is, the sheep or
the coyote, independently (see External Speaker Control on Page 12).
JUKEBOX MODE
In addition to the factory-default “repeat” mode, where the selected sound plays
in a continuous sound loop, your Scorpion can also play sounds sequentially in
the “JUKEBOX” mode. This mode is ideal for those who elect to download and

play conventional MP3 music files.
Entering “JUKEBOX” Mode
1. Be sure the power is turned “OFF”, locate the Mode Selection box
(See FIGURE 1).
2. Reposition the jumper down one pin or to”JUKE BOX.” This will enable
“JUKEBOX” mode. (See FIGURE 1.4)
When enabled, “JUKEBOX” mode will play the sounds or songs in a sequential
manner by advancing to the next sound when the current one is finished.
FIGURE 1.4
ABOUT THE TRANS-FLASH MEMORY CARD
The miniature Trans-Flash memory storage card was chosen for use in your
Scorpion because of the severe size constraints we had to work with in
developing a high performance caller contained in such a small package.
Although this card has enormous memory depth and has a proven track record
of reliability, it’s somewhat more vulnerable to mishandling than the physically
larger Compact Flash cards. The vast majority of users will never have any
need to change or replace this device. Since the Trans-Flash card and its
holder are very small and delicate, please be certain that you have a legitimate
reason to do so before you attempt to remove this card. Not only is the holder
easily broken by large fingers unfamiliar with these cards, the card itself is
vulnerable to irreparable damage from static electricity while not secured in its
holder. Damage to the card holder and static damage to the Trans-Flash card
are not covered by the product warranty. For these precautions, FOXPRO
®
does not recommend routine change-outs of the memory card by users who
are not familiar with these cards and the anti-static precautions required in
order to prevent damage to the card. It takes only a few moments to change the
entire playlist by using the provided USB port, and this procedure is totally safe
and foolproof. If you feel that you have a real reason to change the card, please
contact FOXPRO
®
customer service for advice.

TX-200 REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION
Features
1. On / Off Switch
2. Battery Compartment Cover
3. Rotary Sound Selector Knob
4. Full Graphic LCD Display
5. Four Custom Preset Buttons
6. Sound Reprogramming Jack (on
side panel, not visible in photo)
7. Lanyard Loop
The transmitter supplied with the
Scorpion is our popular TX-200
transmitter. The features of this
transmitter include a full graphic LCD
display, eliminating the need for
printed sound lists, four custom preset
buttons that make your favorite sound
and volume levels available at the
touch of a button, a volume and mute
indicator, a recall button, an elapsed
timer and a rotary sound selector knob
for ease of changing sounds. The
TX-200 transmitter operates on a standard 9-volt battery. Please use a high
quality alkaline battery. To install the battery, remove the battery compartment
cover located on the rear of the transmitter. Connect the 9V battery to the
connector plug and orient the battery in the transmitter. Replace the battery
compartment cover.
TURNING ON THE TX-200
Move the slide switch to the “ON” position. (This switch is located on the back
of the transmitter.)
NOTE: Be sure to move the switch to the “OFF” position when you are finished
using the transmitter so unnecessary battery drain is prevented. If you forget to
turn off the transmitter it will automatically shut down after two hours of nonuse.
If you turn off the TX-200 transmitter while operating the Scorpion caller, it will
cause an out of sync operation. In other words, the Scorpion is still playing the
last sound, but when you turn the TX-200 back on, it will not display the sound
or volume setting currently playing. To get back in sync, depress another sound
and volume setting, or a preset, and the unit will recover.

GRAPHIC LCD DISPLAY
When you have turned on the TX-200 transmitter, the display will illuminate,
displaying the stored playlist. Also displayed are the battery monitor, timer,
channel, volume number and presets.
Shown to the right is a typical display.
NOTE: The display shows eight lines of text.
The first and last lines are status lines, while
the center six lines show one page of the
playlist. The top line shows the sound
numbers that have been stored in the four
presets. If you have not assigned these
presets (See Setting Presets on Page 15),
they will display as 000. The left-most
number corresponds to P1; the right most
number shows P4. Even though these preset
sounds have a specific volume number stored with them, this volume number is
not displayed. The bottom line shows, from the left, the channel selection (A, B,
or C), the current sound number, mute status, volume number, battery monitor
and timer
EXTERNAL SPEAKER CONTROL
One of the new features with the Scorpion is the ability to control the external
speakers with your TX-200 remote control. With the ability to control the
speakers with the remote, this allows you to play a desired sound on one
speaker, then turn that speaker “OFF”, and play a different sound through the
other speaker. This can be a huge advantage to you in the field.
Turning “ON” and “OFF” Speaker “A”
NOTE: (See Using the External Speaker Jacks on Page 6).
With an External Speaker connected to the
Ext. Spkr. “A” Jack:
1. Enter Speaker Control Mode by
simultaneously depressing “AUX”
and “P2.” As shown to the right:
(The Screen will switch to the
Speaker Selection screen indicating
the status of the speaker settings).
2. To turn ON Speaker A, press the P1
button.
3. To turn OFF Speaker A, press the
P2 button.
4. To turn ON Speaker B, press P3.
5. To turn OFF Speaker B, press P4.
To Exit the Speaker Control Selection Screen, simply press the “AUX” button.

NOTE: The internal speaker is connected to the “A” channel. If you only want
sound coming from the external speaker then you must set the Internal
Speaker Jumper to the “OFF” position. (See Disabling the Internal Speaker on
Page 7). If you intend to silence the speakers separately, then stereo mode
must be used. (See Entering “Stereo” Mode on Page 9).
SELECTING SOUNDS
The display will show six of the sounds at any given time. You can scroll
through pages of six sounds (up or down) very quickly by turning the rotary
sound selector knob. This rotary sound selector knob is used to highlight
sounds on the display, change the page being viewed and to send the selected
sound to the Scorpion. Clockwise rotation of the knob scrolls the highlight bar
up the page, while counter-clockwise rotation moves it down. Once the bar
reaches the top of the six displayed sounds, the next movement of the knob in
the same direction will cause the sound pages to increment, showing the next
six sounds. Continued clockwise rotation will cause the sound pages to
advance at a rate of ten pages (60 sounds) per revolution.
To Play a Sound:
Once the sound you wish to play appears in the display:
1. Turn the rotary sound selector knob counter clockwise to highlight that
sound.
2. Push down on the knob to select the sound and to have it transmitted
to the Scorpion for play.
NOTE: If you wish to start your current sound playing from the beginning,
simply depress the knob again. To switch sounds, follow the two steps
above. Selecting sounds is quick and easy. As you can see, even with 200
sounds programmed, you are never more than two revolutions of the rotary
sound selector knob away from any sound.
SETTING THE VOLUME
When the TX-200 is first turned on, the volume setting is preset to 00, as the
display will indicate. Once you have selected and transmitted your sound to the
Scorpion:
1. Simply depress the volume up button on the transmitter to your desired
level.
NOTE: You can depress and hold down on the volume button to continue
to ramp or you can press and release the button to ramp one step at a time.
Depressing the volume buttons will cause the volume number to change in
the display from a low of “0” to a high of “40”. These changes are
transmitted to the Scorpion in real time, causing the volume to ramp up or
down.

NOTE: In order to achieve an optimal ramp speed, the volume changes in
two step increments while the sound is playing. While the mute is active the
volume can be selected in single steps. The volume numbers are
important, as you will begin to identify your preferred volume settings. With
the Scorpion placed away from you, it gives you the ability to know exactly
at what volume the Scorpion is playing. Without these numbers, it may be
hard to tell how loud or soft your unit is playing.
MUTE
To Mute or Un-Mute the Sound
1. Depress and release the mute button on the TX-200 transmitter.
NOTE: Mute mode is indicated by an “M” appearing in the bottom status
line. Mute is an alternating function. The first button press “MUTES,” the
next press “UN-MUTES.” The mute feature also serves as a pause
function. When you mute the current sound being played and then un-mute,
the sound will begin playing at the point where it was muted. If you wish to
play the sound from the beginning of the loop after you un-mute, simply
press down on the rotary sound selector knob before un-muting. While
muted, you can also change your sound, so that when you un-mute, the
new sound will play.
AUX
This button is used to operate an external device that is connected to the
Scorpion, typically the FOXPRO
®
Jack-in-the-Box Decoy. Depressing the AUX
button will begin operation of the external device. A second press of the AUX
button will cease operation. For more information on the AUX function, see the
“AUX” Jack Function on Page 5 and 6.
RECALL
The recall button will allow the previous sound and volume setting to be
recalled and played. For example, let’s say you just switched your sound from a
rabbit distress at volume 18 to a coyote pup distress. Now, you bring the
volume up on the coyote pup distress to volume 28. By depressing the recall
button, your sound will switch from the coyote pup distress at volume 28, back
to the rabbit distress at volume 18. The recall button will also work with the
presets.
ENLARGED DISPLAY SCREEN
Another feature of the TX-200 is that the user has the ability to change the
screen to an enlarged display. This screen was designed for any person that
may have some difficulty reading the normal text screen. This display changes

from the text display to a numeric display with a larger font, making it easier to
read. The sound number is displayed on the left portion of the screen. The
number on the right indicates the volume level.
Shown to the right is a typical
display.
NOTE: The sound name description is
not displayed while the Enlarged
Display Screen is active. The Presets,
Channel, Sound, Mute, Volume, Battery
Indicator and Timer are all visible while
the Enlarged Display Screen is active.
To activate the enlarged
Be sure that the TX-200 is turned “ON.”
1. Simultaneously depress the Mute and Volume Up buttons.
(This will enable the Enlarged Display Screen).
2. Turn the rotary sound selector knob to your desired sound number.
3. When the desired sound number is visible, push down on the knob to
have it transmitted to the Scorpion for play.
To check the current sound playing:
1. Simultaneously depress the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons.
(This is helpful when you are scrolling through the sound list, and you
want to check which sound is currently being played on the Scorpion.
Once these buttons are pressed the current sound will appear in the
sound number box to the left).
NOTE: All of the Auxiliary, Mute, Presets, Recall, Speaker Control, and
Timer functions will operate properly while the Enlarged Display Screen is
active.
To Exit the Enlarged Display Screen:
Simultaneously depress the Mute and Volume Up buttons (This will disable the
Enlarged Display Screen and will default back to the normal text screen).

PRESETS
Four preset buttons are provided so that you can program your favorite sounds
along with a volume level for immediate recall. The stored sound number of
these presets is shown on the top status line of the TX-200 graphic LCD
display. The associated stored volume number is not displayed. To switch
instantly to any of these presets, simply press and release the appropriate
button.
NOTE: If mute is active, the preset sound will not play until mute is deactivated.
To Program the Presets:
1. Press and hold the P1 button for three to five seconds until the top
status line reads “SEL SND/ VOL PRESS P1”.
2. Select the sound to be programmed by rotating the sound selector
knob until the correct sound is highlighted. Now push the volume up or
volume down buttons until the desired volume number appears on the
bottom status line.
3. Depress and release the P1 button. This will store the sound and
volume level. The selected sound number will appear in the P1 position
on the top status line.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the remaining presets.
NOTE: The presets must be reprogrammed each time a new playlist is
downloaded into the TX-200. Any selected preset will be highlighted on the
top status line. Presets are not available in channel “A” operation. Preset
buttons can be changed as often as you like.
TIMER
The TX-200 transmitter features a timer displayed on the bottom status line.
This makes it convenient for determining length of stands and respond times of
incoming animals. When your TX-200 is turned on, the timer begins counting.
The timer displays minutes and seconds up to 99:59. Once this time is reached,
the timer rolls over to 00:00 and commences counting. The timer can be reset
at any time by simply pressing the RECALL and P3 buttons simultaneously.
Once you turn your TX-200 transmitter off, the timer stops counting.

BATTERY MONITOR
The TX-200 transmitter also features a very
effective battery monitor on the bottom
status line. The TX-200 transmitter operates
on a standard 9-volt battery. Please use a
high quality alkaline battery. Battery life can
approach 175 hours. Watch the battery
monitor and replace the battery before it
becomes completely depleted (See
Installing the Transmitter battery on
Page 2).
Inverting the Display Screen
The TX-200 remote allows you to invert the graphics on the display. This
feature is referred to as night-mode, which prevents the amount of illumination
from the screen. To invert the screen follow this step:
1. Simultaneously depress the RECALL and P4 buttons. (This will change
the background display of the screen). To exit night mode,
simultaneously depress the RECALL and P4 buttons.
REPROGRAMMING SOUNDS ON YOUR SCORPION
The Scorpion comes standard with a USB 2.0 port built in (no reader / writer is
