TM1550—Installation Instructions

Step 1. In forested locations, select a site along the trail with up to 10” diameter trees on both sides of the trail. The extra set(s) of straps (included with your counter) can be used to lengthen the straps, thus allowing the attachment to large diameter trees.

Step 2. Mount the Receiver unit (with nylon straps, provided on the unit) to one tree, with the sensor (located on the right side of the unit) facing the opposite tree. (Note, use the alignment sighting line to aim the receiver’s sensor in the direction of the opposite tree where the Transmitter unit will be mounted.)

Recommended Tools: Screwdriver, (Philips head)

Step 3. Turn “on” the Receiver unit’s power switch and press the “Set Up” button on the front of the unit.

Step 4. Mount the Transmitter unit on the opposite tree (up to 150 feet away). Note, the sensor of the transmitter is located on the front face of the unit. This sensor should be aiming back towards the Receiver unit. Turn the power switch on.

Step 6. Tighten all mounting straps on each unit. Then, take several passes back and forth on the trail to verify that the counter is counting. If not, reposition the Receiver unit to align the sensor’s beam.

Step 5. At this time, you should notice the “red” alignment indicator on the Receiver unit blinking indicating the transmitter and receiver units are initially aligned.
