Using the encrypted transmission function
Using the 
encrypted 
transmission 
function
To prevent hacking of the signal, the 
transmitter scrambles the signal during 
transmission. To use this function, select 
one of the following encrypted transmission 
modes:
Secure key mode: An encryption key 
that is automatically generated by the 
transmitter is used by both the transmitter 
and receiver in this one-to-one encrypted 
transmission method.
Password mode: You choose a 
password of up to eight characters that can 
be set for multiple transmitters and 
receivers. This enables encrypted 
transmission within a group. 
 
Make sure the same mode is set on the 
transmitter and receiver.
Using secure key mode 
(SECURE KEY)
Use this mode for one-to-one encrypted 
transmission between one transmitter and 
one receiver.
An encryption key that cannot be read from 
the outside is automatically generated by 
the transmitter. This key is transmitted to 
the receiver through a USB connection or 
the RF REMOTE function, enabling 
encrypted transmission to take place.
The encryption key used by the transmitter 
and receiver is newly generated for each 
key transmission, resulting in highly secure 
communication.
The encryption key used between the 
transmitter and the receiver is saved when 
the power is turned off, so the encrypted 
transmission can be resumed the next time 
the power is turned on.
