To test the Q-Boom signal without activating the unit, press and hold the ACTION BUTTON for a few seconds. The display area will ash green. This indicates that the device is on and safe to send test signals. Each time the ACTION BUTTON is pressed, a signal will be sent from the ONE BUTTON REMOTE to the RECEIVER. The RECEIVER’s lights will ash red to indicate that it has received the signal. If the ACTION BUTTON isn’t pressed again within 15 to 20 seconds, the remote will turn off. To reactivate, simply press and briey hold the ACTION BUTTON until display turns green again. *NOTE: The MODE SWITCH has no “start” position; it can be positionedto the left or the right when the remote is turned on. The ONE BUTTON REMOTE always turns on in TEST MODE. As long as the green light is on, the user can continue to test that the Q-Boom unit is receiving a good signal without popping the balloon.Testing TipsTest mode is a great way to work out where you will place the Q-Boom device before hanging. Without attaching a balloon, turn on Q-Boom and place it in the area in which you will use it. Walk around the room, periodically pushing the ACTION BUTTON on the ONE BUTTON REMOTE. Each time you press the button, the RECEIVER’s lights should ash. If not, refer to the checklist at the end of this document.NOTE: Remember, more than one RECEIVER can be used simultaneously with the ONE BUTTON REMOTE. A range survey ahead of time ensures all RECEIVERS are receiving signal. 4 5TESTMODEMode SwitchACTIVEMODEWhen ready to pop the balloon, slide the MODE SWITCH to the opposite position.* The display area will ash red, which means the Q-Boom is ready to pop the balloon. The ONE BUTTON REMOTE is now ready to send the signal to the RECEIVER. The balloon will pop immediately upon pressing the ACTION BUTTON. If you decide to not pop the balloon, simply slide the MODE SWITCH to the opposite position and the display area will turn green. If the ACTION BUTTON is not depressed within 15 to 20 seconds when the ONE BUTTON REMOTE display is red or green, the ONE BUTTON REMOTE will turn off. Testing Q-Boom™
Photo BMethod 2:Create a Raisin Twist by tying a knot several times on top of one another in a 260Q. Trim the balloon on each side of the knot. See Photo A.Insert the knot inside the 3' balloon and grasp the knot through the skin of the outside balloon at the base of the neck just past the spot where the balloon starts to curve, and twist it several times. Secure the twist by wrapping it several times with an unin ated 260Q and tie. In ate the 3' balloon to at least 28" and tie. See Photo B.Photo APhoto B6 7Photo AAttaching Q-Boom™ to a BalloonWe recommend two methods of attaching a balloon to the Q-Boom RECEIVER.Pull the both ends of the 260Q through the hole in the RECEIVER and wrap it through the Z-Notch several times to secure. See Photo B. Method 1:In ate a 3' balloon to at least 28" and tie. Pull the air out of a 260Q and tie a knot, so the 260Q is  at. Use a piece of stretchy tape (available from Clik-Clik.com) that is a minimum of 5" long and attach the 260Q approximately 4" from the knot of the balloon. See Photo A. NOTE: Be sure to position the stretchy tape under the two “legs” of the RECEIVER. This holds the balloon  rmly in position and ensures the blade punctures the balloon instead of the stretchy tape.Use the 260Q from the Raisin Twist and pull it through the hole in the RECEIVER. Wrap it through the Z-Notch several times to secure. See Photo C.Perform recommended Q-Boom test (see page 4). Balloon is now ready to hang.Photo C
Hanging Q-Boom™To hang the completed Q-Boom balloon assembly, nd a secure object such as a pipe, drop ceiling, cross-brace, etc. Wrap the exible wire around the object, tying the wire back on itself to create a closed loop. It is important to ensure that the Q-Boom RECEIVER does not become unattached while hanging for safety of guests. Pairing RECEIVERS to the ONE BUTTON REMOTE:1. Install fresh batteries in both the ONE BUTTON REMOTE and theRECEIVER while it is turned OFF.2. While holding the RED BUTTON on the side of the RECEIVER, switch thepower ON. This puts the unit into PAIRING MODE. Release the RED BUTTON.8 9Red Button3. Press the ACTION BUTTON on the ONE BUTTON REMOTE and hold untilthe RED LEDs on the RECEIVER ash to indicate pairing was successful.This only needs to be done once. The ONE BUTTON REMOTE and RECEIVER will remained paired, even after the batteries are removed.NOTE: A ONE BUTTON REMOTE can be paired with multiple RECEIVERS, just repeat the process for each RECEIVER.TroubleshootingIf the Q-Boom RECEIVER’s red lights don’t ash when testing, ask the following questions:1. Is the Q-Boom turned ON?2. Is the battery new? If not, use a fresh battery.3. Is the “line of sight” to the unit obstructed by anything? Checkthat there are no major obstructions between the ONE BUTTON REMOTE and RECEIVER.4. Is there something else operating on the same frequency as theQ-Boom? If this is the case, chances are Q-Boom cannot be used in this environment.
