Overview
The dual-frequency remote control can transmit on one of
two carrier frequencies:
• 27.145 MHz (AM) to communicate with jukeboxes
(Genesis I, II, Maestro, Rhapsody) that use the existing
receiver/demodulator.
• 433.92 MHz. (FSK) for jukeboxes with the new receiver/
demodulator.
By default, the frequency is set to 433.92 MHz.
The remote control is RF-based. This eliminates the need to
point it directly at the jukebox when using it. It has a range of
up to 200 feet depending on the type of the obstructions
between it and the jukebox. Concrete and metal provide
more of a barrier than wood or plaster. The remote control
can also be affected by interference from other RF-based
devices.
The remote control is powered by two 1.5V AAA batteries.
Insert the batteries in the compartment on the rear of the
remote. Use only high-quality alkaline batteries.
Low Battery Warning
When the remote control’s battery level decreases to a level
too low for reliable operation (2.2V or less), the red LED will
flash 10 times to indicate that the batteries need to be
replaced, and the remote will not transmit.
