Section 1: MIDS Transmitter (MXMT) Description The MIDS Transmitter (MXMT) is used to transmit a digitally encoded ID number, via narrow band VHF (138-174 MHz) RF frequencies, when activated by various types of attached ground sensors. The transmitter is factory pre-set to a single (customer specified) channel. See frequency range below. Antenna Channel: Factory Pre-Set Single Channel ID Codes: 00-63 (Even numbers only for normal use, all numbers for special applications.
Operation ID Code Set-Up – The ID is the number transmitted when the attached sensor is activated. The ID number transmitted is the sum of the switches, 8A + B. These switches should be set with the screwdriver provided to prevent damage to the plastic slots. Use only even number ID codes between 00-62.
The MXMT has four modes of operation. These modes are controlled by internal tilt switches. Normal Operation – The MXMT may be put in normal mode by placing it with the antenna up. While in normal mode the MXMT is triggered by an externally connected sensor. Sensor Alignment – The MXMT may be put in alignment mode by placing it with the battery cap up. The alignment mode is used with the infrared sensors (Break beam and Passive IR).
Section 2: MIDS Remote Control Transmitter (MRCT) Description The MIDS Remote Control Transmitter is used as a training and test unit. The MRCT has changeable ID code switches mounted on the side of the receiver. The MRCT can be set to ID codes 00-63. The switches are set to the desired ID code, and the transmitbutton is pressed. The hand held receiver receives the ID code that was set on the MRCT.
Operation MODELS MRCT-2 or Later Models ID Code Set-Up – The ID code is the number transmitted, once each time, when the MRCT transmit button is depressed. The ID code is set using the switches located on the side of the transmitter. The numbers can be changed by pressing either the ‘+’ button below or ‘-’ button above the displayed number. The number displayed in the switch window will be the ID code transmitted.

Section 3: MIDS Hand Held Receiver (MPDM) Description The Mini Portable Display Monitor (MPDM) is used to receive and display the ID code number transmitted by an activated transmitter. Only one of 64 IDs can be displayed at a time. When a sensor is activated, its ID replaces that of the previous ID displayed. Since the MPDM can only display one ID at a time, it is intended to be used real time, for immediate response or action.
Operation Determine which IDs are to be received and displayed by the MPDM. Set the lockout switches accordingly. A lockout switch set to the ‘ON’ position will allow the ID codes in the corresponding range to be displayed, and a lockout switch set to the ‘OFF’ position will not allow the ID codes in the corresponding range to be displayed.
Section 4: MIDS Remote Control Receiver (MRCR) Description The MIDS Remote Control Receiver (MRCR) is used to provide a contact open/closure upon receipt of a user specified ID. This provides a means to interface MIDS equipment with user provided auxiliary equipment (camera, video, tape recorder, etc). An external connector and cable assembly is provided for access to the relay contacts and to provide a means for selecting the relay operating time.
Operation Set the ID code on the MRCR, using the ten-position switches, to match that of the sensor/transmitter that it is to monitor. If either switch is set to 8 or 9, then the MRCR will operate upon receipt of any ID code. Connect the MRCR to the external equipment using the auxiliary equipment cable. Turn the MRCR on using the toggle switch. Test the unit by pressing the test button. The external equipment should operate if the MRCR is functioning and properly connected.
