GENERAL INFORMATIONThe LRS ZB-Beacons are used in conjunction with the LRS Table Tracker systems.They are used as an on-premise locating system to increase eciency by identifying customer’s’ location, typically to deliver services or goods. Beacons are powered by AAA batteries, water resistant, and can flash when the user presses the button during configuration.SETUP AND USETo begin using your beacons, power them up by adding batteries.  Batteries Installation1.  Remove the four screws to open up the case and access the board.2.  Locate the battery holder and place one AAA battery on each battery  compartment. (Do not place the lid back on as you need access to the board to complete the configuration.)WARNING: Do not use rechargeable batteries. Damage caused from improper power sources including but not limited to the incorrect batteries is not covered under the standard warranty. If you’re uncertain about which battery to use, contact our customer sup-port department at 800.437.4996Configuration  Configure the location that each beacon will broadcast.1.

Howev-er, this material is susceptible to hairline cracking if non-approved cleaners are used. When cleaning LRS ZB-Beacons, you should only use ETHYL ALCOHOL (ethanol) or ISOPROPYL ALCO- HOL-BASED CLEANERS. We have done extensive testing with available cleaning materials and have not found any issues with either ethyl alcohol (ethanol) or isopropyl alcohol (IPA).  ALL other cleaners are not recommended for use on any of our pagers.To clean the equipment:1.  Take a clean cloth and an isopropyl-alcohol based cleaner2.  Wet the clean cloth with the isopropyl alcohol cleaner3.  Wipe down the pagers or equipment4.  When dry, place rechargeable pagers back on chargeWARNING:Cleaning your equipment with any other non-approved cleaners can weaken plastic and cause hairline cracks. Pagers and equipment that are cleaned with unapproved cleaners and suer cracking will not be covered under warranty. Do not submerge any LRS ZB-Beacons equipment in any type of liquid as this will also damage the equipment and is not covered under the standard warranty.Many alcohol-based sanitizers add quaternary ammonium (aka “quat”) to the mix. Long- term exposure to quats will damage polycarbonate. A commonly used quat is benzalkonium chloride.4
