DRAFT COPYOPERATIONAL INSPECTIONComplete operational inspection of the Personal Trans-mitter requires use of the Hand Held Receiver1. To test the manual alarm, press either of the twomanual alarm buttons on the Personal Transmitter.a) The Personal Transmitter shall sound a loudalmost continuous 2 tone chirp accompanied byflashing of the red signal light.NOTEIF A LOW BATTERY INDICATION OCCURS AT ANY TIMEDURING REGULAR OPERATIONAL INSPECTION, DONOT USE THE EQUIPMENT. CHANGE THE BATTERIESAS REQUIRED AND REPEAT THE REGULAROPERATIONAL TEST OR TAKE THE EQUIPMENT OUTOF SERVICE UNTIL THE BATTERIES ARE CHANGEDAND THE REGULAR OPERATIONAL TEST ISSUCCESSFULLY PERFORMED.VISUAL INSPECTION1. Visually inspect the Personal Transmitter enclosurefor cracks or other damage. If any damage is found,remove the unit from service and tag forreplacement.2. Verify that the label with the Personal Transmitter IDNumber is clear and legible.3. Turn on the Personal Transmitter by removing thelanyard. Verify that the unit sounds and lights properly.The Personal Transmitter shall sound a loud almostcontinuous 3 tone chirp accompanied by flashing ofthe red signal light.4. Battery Life – The Personal Transmitter will chirp onceevery three seconds to indicate the batteries are lowand require changing. If the low battery indicationoccurs during the REGULAR OPERATIONALINSPECTION, replace the batteries beforeproceeding with the inspection. See the BATTERYINSTALLATION section of this instruction.REGULAR OPERATIONAL INSPECTIONWARNINGFOLLOW REGULAR OPERATIONAL INSPECTION PRO-CEDURE EXACTLY. IF THE SCOTT PAK-TRACKERLOCATOR SYSTEM DOES NOT ACTUATE, OR DOES NOTOPERATE AS DESCRIBED OR IF ANY OTHER OPERA-TIONAL MALFUNCTION IS NOTED, DO NOT USE THEEQUIPMENT.

TESTINGCOMPANY, Inc. as intrinsically safe per ANSI/UL Std. UL-913 for use in Class I Division 1 Groups A, B, C, and Dhazardous locations. To maintain the Intrinsic Safety List-ing, the equipment must be inspected regularly per thefollowing Regular Operational Inspection procedures. Donot tamper with or substitute components in any man-ner. Use only batteries of the type indicated in the BatteryReplacement instructions. Open the battery compart-ments only in an area known to be free of flammable orexplosive hazards.WARNING – Substitution of Components May Impair In-trinsic Safety. To reduce the risk of ignition of a flammableatmosphere, batteries must only be changed in an areaknown to be nonflammable, and do not mix old batterieswith unused batteries, or mix batteries from different manu-facturers.SAFETY LISTINGSCLASS B DIGITAL DEVICENote: This equipment has been tested and found to com-ply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant toPart 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed toprovide reasonable protection against harmful interferencein a residential installation. This equipment generates,uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if notinstalled and used in accordance with the instructions,may cause harmful interference to radio communications.However, there is no guarantee that interference will notoccur in a particular installation. If this equipment doescause harmful interference to radio or television recep-tion, which can be determined by turning the equipmentoff and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct theinterference by one or more of the following measures:– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna– Increase the separation between the equipment andreceiver.– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuitdifferent from that to which the receiver is connected.– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TVtechnician for help.
