Inspecting the transmitter connector pins
This image is an example of how the connector pins should look.
Look inside the transmitter's connector opening to make sure that the connector pins are
not damaged or corroded. If the connector pins are damaged or corroded, the transmitter
cannot communicate with the charger or pump. Contact the 24 Hour HelpLine. It may be
time to replace your transmitter.
Also look for moisture inside the connector opening. If you see any moisture, allow the
transmitter to dry for at least one hour. Moisture inside the connector opening could
cause the transmitter to not work properly, and could cause corrosion and damage over
time.
Connecting the tester for testing or cleaning
To connect the tester:
1 Hold the transmitter and the tester as shown. Line up the flat
side of the tester with the flat side of the transmitter.
2 Slide the transmitter onto the tester connector until the snaps of
the arms click into the notches on the transmitter. Within
10 seconds, the green light on the transmitter will flash for
about 10 seconds when properly connected.
3 To test the transmitter, check the sensor icon on the pump to
ensure that the transmitter is sending a signal (see the user
guide for your device).
4 To clean the transmitter, see Cleaning/disinfecting the transmitter, on page 9.
5 After testing or cleaning, disconnect the tester from the transmitter.
