please don’t adjust
arbitrarily.
If necessary, adjusting

adjusting counter
clock wise (allow
receiving a stronger

operating. The SQ lamp will turn on
when receiving any radio

 CHANGE OF FREQUENCY
The frequency of SAGA1-L system can be simply changed by only replacing the
correspondent crystal frequency in both the TX and RX. Please refer to below
procedure in regards to replacing the crystal.
P ocedu es:
(1). Pry up the crystal unit with a flat screwdriver
(2). Remove the crystal unit from the system.
(3). Use a needle nose pliers to straighten both pins of the new crystal unit.
Note: To replace a new crystal, please note that there are 2 kinds of frequencies
(VHF and UHF) are available. The indication of VHF or UHF is shown on
the PC board with a check ark “V” and please ake sure to not replace a
VHF crystal unit into UHF PC board or visa versa.

(4). Insert the new crystal unit vertically into the PC board.
(5). Press the new crystal down into the socket.
Attention The frequency will be different when plugging the same
crystal into the TX or RX. For example
T：311MHz requency for TX is 311 MHz
R：321.7MHz requency for RX is 321.7MHz

 ID-Code Remote Setting
ID-Code remote setting allows you to pair the new TX or RX if one of them is damaged.
In order to work the TX & RX must have the same frequency. Using ID-Code remote
setting will make both the TX and RX to have the same ID Code.
1). Please make su e the following conditions befo e ID-Code emote setting:
(a) oth TX and RX are of the SAME model and frequency.
(b) To place the transmitter as close as possible to the receiver to avoid any
interference.
(c) Turn off the RX power more than 10 seconds and turn it on again.
(d) Complete the ID-Code remote setting within 4 minutes after turning on the RX. The
RX will NOT accept the ID-Code remote setting signal after 4 minutes.
2). ID-Code emote setting Inst uctions:
(a) Press and hold the transmitter STOP pushbutton/EMS button.
(b) Press DOWN pushbutton and hold it.
(c) Press UP pushbutton 4 times and release “STOP & DOWN” pushbuttons when the
red light on the transmitter is flashing.
(d) Start the system as usual.
Note: Fo SAGA1-L6B
1. The DOWN pushbutton must be remaining in 1
