REMOTE PROGRAMMING

With MUTT

®

in the OFF position, hold down the large button (Fig. 4-1) on the remote

while simultaneously turning the MUTT

®

mote is now programmed. Up to 24 separate remotes may be programmed to a

®

.

HOW TO USE THE WIRELESS REMOTE

1. LIGHTS & ELECTRIC BRAKES

Press button to select the next available electrical

circuit (including electric brakes when available).

2. AIR BRAKE OPERATION

NOTE: Be certain to CHOCK ALL TRAILER

WHEELS before conducting trailer testing
Open Emergency ball valve and charge

circuit with 100PSI. Use the small button

on the remote to actuate Service Side.

3. REMOTE CONFIRMATION INDICATOR

Red light illuminates to confirm that a button has

been pressed to indicate Battery Remote Power.

NOTE: With each press of either button, the red light (Fig. 4-3) of the remote illumi-

nates, showing the confirmation of button depression and battery integrity of the remote.

Inclement weather, nearby power transformers and closely parked trailers may cause

reduction in the remote signal.

The antenna wire (included in the accessories bag) can be inserted into the MUTT

®

antenna jack (Fig. 3-D). It is recommended that the antenna is installed upon set-up

(Fig.5). In extreme scenarios, the operator may choose to install a longer wire such as

standard mechanic’s wire to achieve a better signal. This is only necessary when work-

ing on trailers that are parked within 18” of each other. In normal situations, the remote

control will work from up to 100 feet away from the MUTT

®

.

The remote Key Fob battery supplied is a 12V, Alkaline Energizer type A23. A Gold

Peak type 23AE or a Duracell MN21 battery can be used.

WARNING: Be careful when using remote controls in multi-bay shops where an-

other MUTT

®

may be in operation. One remote may be inadvertently programmed

to multiple MUTT

®’

s. This can happen when the large button on a remote is being

held down at the same time another MUTT

®

is being powered up, effectively pro-

gramming one remote to two units. To avoid this, be sure any other MUTT

®

users

alert you when they power up their unit. A remote control can only be synchro-

nized to a MUTT

®

during the power up phase.
