Handheld Remote Operation

The RFR handheld unit features 24 backlit buttons and two push-button thumb wheels,
one on either side for scrolling to desired targets and selecting them for interaction. The
top side of the remote has an on/off power switch, a high frequency antenna, and a USB
mini b port. The USB mini b connection may be used to supply power for the internal
rechargeable NiMH battery cell.

Keypad Function

The keypad illuminates while the keys are in use and remains illuminated while the unit
is transmitting data. After a key is released, the keypad will dim the backlight and the
LCD display until the next button press or transmission.

Most of the buttons on the handheld remote are common use and function exactly as
they are labeled. A select few of the buttons require additional explanation:

• The top left button is labeled [More SK / Mode]. When this button is pressed and released, the

soft keys will change to the next page of soft keys if there is more than one page available for use.
Press and hold the [More SK / Mode] button to display different modes of interacting with the
console.

• The bottom right button is labeled [Enter / Chan]. When the RFR is connected for use with an Eos

or Ion console, the [Enter / Chan] function is <Enter>, which terminates the command line. When
the RFR is connected for use with a Congo or Congo jr console, the button’s function is
<Channel>.
