1. SAFET Y I NST RUCTIO N The Alpha 600XS series are relatively simple to use, however, it is very important to observe the proper safety procedures before, during, and after operation. When used properly, the Alpha 600XS series will enhance safety, productivity and efficiency in the workplace. The following procedures should be strictly followed: 1. The transmitter is equipped with an induction battery charger. Only two ”AA” Ni-MH rechargeable batteries are allowed to be used in the transmitter.
Warning: Changes or modifications are not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. “This transmitter(s)/receiver(s) complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

6. SYSTE M CO NFIG URATIO NS 6.1 How to Set ID Codes For the Alpha 600XJ series transmitter, except for the spare transmitter, there will have only one default 24 bits ID code. Please do not change it as will to avoid any interference. If two transmitters set with an identical ID code work for the same receiver, please do not operate two or more transmitters with the same ID code at the same time to avoid danger. 6.1.1 Set by the Alpha 600 programmer. 6.1.
Encoder board Top slot ON “1”; bottom slot “0”. The setting above is 00000011. 6.2 Transmitter Group Channel Settings: Group channel and fixed channel mode 6.2.1 Group Channel Mode The group channel table is the table for frequency sequence changes. The transmitter channel change is set base on this table. Same as channels from fixing channel selection, be sure to avoid using the same group channel if two of the Alpha 604, 607, 608 or 612XJ transmitters are operated within 300 meters of range.
6.2.2 Group Channel Settings: 1) Set by the Alpha 600 programmer. 2) Set by the encoder board 2nd & 3rd pin of JP1 and dip-switch. Auto-cycled group channel: JP1 2, 3 short + dip-switch set as 00000000 Assigned group channel: JP1 2, 3 short + dip-switch set by following below table.
distance for more than 2 meters to the transmitter with adjacent channel and the receiver in use. The best way to avoid interference is to keep channel interval over 2 for operating distance within 300 meters. * To operate transmitters with group channel and fixed channel within 300 meters of range, please use different group channels for transmitter under group channel mode. For transmitter with fixed channel mode, please use different channels and keep channel interval over 2.
3. The LED status within 1st second when the power is On: Red LED On: Channel group mode Green LED On: Fixed channel mode 4. Afer the 1st second display of group channel or fixed channel mode, the status LED will be off and then display group channel or fixed channel number repeatedly, as decribed below: Status LED: Red LED blink once +10, Green LED blink once +1. The blink will be continued repeatedly until the transmitter power switch is off. Example 1: The 1st second will be after the green LED is On.
7. RECEIVE R SETTING S 7.1 How to set α604/607/608 Recei ver ID Cod es For the α600 group channel series, it is no need to change any setting of group ID code (GID), ID code, group channel and receiving channel to the receiver but only to bind the setting of the receiving RF module with the transmitter. ※ The default setting of α604/607/608 receiver ID code is 00000000 which might not be identical to the setting of transmitter IDH/IDM/IDL code.
7.3 Receiving RF M od ule Binding The Alpha 600XJ series is using the receiving RF module to bind with each transmitter. That is, the receiving RF module memorizes the system type and ID code of the transmitter. The receiving RF module is receiving signals only when the system type and ID code received are identical to the ones saved in the momery. If not, the signals will be objected. 1. One receiving RF module can only bind with one transmitter ID.
7.4 Steps for Receiving RF M odule to Pair with Transmitter * The pairing is for one transmitter to one receiving RF module only. No 2 transmitters or more than 2 enter pairing mode at the same time. Please refer to the pairing steps as below: 1. Receiving RF module_Press and hold PAIR button until the pairing is successful. (Red status light is off, receiving RF module enters pairing mode.) 2. Transmitter_Rotate the transmitter power switch to OFF position and close it to the receiving RF module. 3.

7.5.4 Alpha 612 Receiver Voltage Settings 1. Select the voltage of the place where the receiver is installed. 2. Select the position of the “Y” terminal base on the label marked on the transformer. If the default voltage setting is different from the place where the receiver is installed, please change the setting base on below steps: 2.1 Please first refer to below figure.
8. TRANSMITTE R O PE RATIO N & STAT US LIG HT 8.1 Transmitter Operating Steps 1. Battery replacement steps For induction charging, please use two “AA” low self-discharge NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) Batteries. A. Screw open the battery cover. B. Pull up the ribbon (to take out the exhausted batteries) D. & D. Put and press the first battery into the battery compartment. (Note the polarity and position) E. & F. Put and press the second battery into the battery compartment.
Under high temperature protection: Press every pushbutton will send null commands and the corresponding pushbutton relay will be unlatched. In case of high temperature protection functions, please keep the transmitter away from high temperature environment and shut off transmitter power. High temperature protection won’t be deactivated only after transmitter is back to operating temperature -10 ~ +60℃ and restarted. 8. To operation normally, the battery power must over 2.2V. If the voltage is lower than 2.

9.2.2 Commissioning steps 1. Decide the wiring type and cable. If the cable gland is used for the cable, please use the enclosed rubber cork to seal the cable gland without cable. 2. For system wiring, please refer to the output contact diagrams from page 13. 3. Ensure the selected location has adequate space to accommodate the receiver enclosure. 4. Make sure the receiver unit is in upright position (vertical). The distance between the antenna and the control panel should be as far apart as possible.

BATTE RY CH ARGE R 10.1 Charger Op eration Electromagnetic Induction Charge The electromagnetic induction charger with undisclosed metal charging contacts on transmitter provides immediate charging simply by sliding the transmitter into the charger. It is no need to open the battery cover to replace batteries. To avoid rain, high temperature, humidity and corroding air, please place or install the battery charger indoor with good ventilation.
in a shorter time than usual. To charge normally, please take out the transmitter from charger and insert it into charger again. Transmitter charging temperature might be abnormally high and then cause charging failed when the rechargeable battery is old. To avoid it, please replace old batteries with new ones. Please change the two rechargeable batteries from the transmitter battery compartment at the same time to charge or discharge completely.
