TX-5LR Remote Control Instructions 

 

 A local – remote switch is installed on the main unit opposite the charge jack.  To select 
remote control operation, slide the switch to the up position.  The transmitter is housed in 
a rugged plastic case, and is powered by a standard 9-volt battery.  The keypad has 
buttons for selecting the sound to be played, controlling the volume, muting the sound, 
and controlling an auxiliary device such as a decoy.  The sound number is displayed on a 
large backlighted liquid crystal display.  This, coupled with glow-in-the-dark keys, allows 
for easy operation even in total darkness. The transmitter will auto-off after about 5 
seconds in order to conserve battery power. 
 

OPERATION 

 
Place the slide switch on the main unit to the “up” position.  Turn on the caller and set the 
volume control to allow for the loudest sound desired.  If you set this control to half way, 
the maximum volume in remote mode will be half volume.  If you set this control to 
maximum, you will be able to adjust the volume all the way up.  As you can see, the 
volume control sets a maximum sound level while in remote mode.  Because the main 
unit enters the remote mode with the sound muted, no sound will be heard.  Next, select 
the sound you want to play by adjusting the number shown in the display with the “Sound 
Up” and “Sound Down” buttons.  Compare the number to the sound list on the back of 
the transmitter.  Once you have the proper number in the display, push the “Send” button.  
This will store the number in memory. Note that you must push “Send” before the 
transmitter times out and shuts off.  If this doesn’t happen, the transmitter will resort to 
the last number stored with the “Send” button. Note that this button not only stores the 
sound number…it also sends it to the main unit.  However, sound is not heard because 
the main unit is still in “Mute” mode.  To make the selected sound play, push the “Mute” 
button for about a half-second.  This will latch the unit in a mute disabled mode, and 
allow the sound to play.  You may now adjust the volume by pressing the volume up or 
down buttons.  Note that it can take as much as 10 seconds to adjust the volume from one 
extreme to the other.  To play a different sound, select the appropriate sound number on 
the display, then push the “Send” button. To mute the sound, push the mute button again.  
The “Aux” button is used to control certain accessories sold or approved by FOXPRO.  
Do not connect any device not approved by FOXPRO to the Aux connector on the main 
unit.
