Erase memory
To erase all programmed codes:
1. Unplug the Sidekick or turn the power switch to OFF.
2. Open the access hatch on the bottom of the Sidekick and locate the PROGRAM button.
3. Press and hold the PROGRAM button. While pressing the program button, plug in the Sidekick or turn the power switch ON and
then release the PROGRAM button. This will erase all codes in the Sidekick memory.
Programming
NOTE:
Your Sidekick receiver and all transmitters leave the factory already programmed for the factory default code. The Sidekick
does NOT need to be programmed unless you have changed the code on your transmitters.
The Silent Call alerting system is digitally coded. Each Silent Call transmitter contains a five position code switch. The Sidekick
receiver can be set to respond to one or more different transmitter codes. All Silent Call devices including the Sidekick receiver leave
the factory set to the default code of 1=off, 2=off, 3=off, 4=on, 5=on. This code does not need to be changed unless your system is
within 100-200 feet of another Silent Call system. In that case, simply set all transmitters to a different code (any combination of on
and off positions except all on or all off), and then reprogram the Sidekick receiver as follows:
To program a new code:
1. Turn the Sidekick on. The Sound LED will blink 5 times.
2. With the Sidekick powered on, press the program button. All four LEDs will illuminate. Hold the program button until the
LED’s go out (about 8 seconds) and then the Green Phone LED blinks 3 times. Release the button and the LED’s will come back
on to indicate that the Sidekick receiver is in program mode. It will remain in program mode for approximately 30 seconds and
the LEDs will go out one at a time to indicate the time remaining. While in program mode, the Sidekick will memorize the code
of the first 318 MHz transmitter it receives and then exit program mode.
3. While the Sidekick receiver is in program mode, press the button on any Silent Call 318 MHz transmitter that has been set to the
desired system code. When the Sidekick receiver receives the transmission, it will memorize the code, exit program mode and
indicate the function of the transmitter.
4. Note that you do not have to program the Sidekick receiver with every transmitter in your system as long as all transmitters are set
to the same code.
5. Programmed codes are retained in memory even when the Sidekick power is removed.
6. This new version receiver still has the ability to learn all possible address code combinations.
