BATTERY INSTALLATION

The lextronix E1 receiver is also designed to operate
from four "D" cell batteries (not supplied). NOTE: Check
the batteries periodically for leakage. IF UNIT IS TO BE
STORED OR OTHERWISE NOT USED FOR AN EXTENDED
PERIOD OF TIME, REMOVE THE BATTERIES TO PREVENT
CORROSION AND POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE RECEIVER.
Damage caused by battery acid leakage is not covered
under the warranty.
(1) Position the receiver with the front panel towards
you.
(2) Open the battery access door located at the lower
left corner of the front panel. (Shown as #5 in the
front panel drawing.)
(3) Inside you will find an additional door as shown in
the following illustration.

(4) Insert the first of four "D" sized batteries into the
battery opening with the plus end of the battery to
your left. See the following illustration.
Insert battery with "+" end to the
left, and slide battery to the right
(5) Slide the battery to the right and continue in this
manner until all four batteries are installed. Replace
the inner door and close the outer door.

BATTERY OPERATION

The lextronix E1 receiver does not rely on the batteries
for retention of memory channels. However, to insure
that clocks are maintained following the loss of AC
power and battery removal, the receiver must first be
connected to a source of AC power or have batteries
installed. Clock settings are maintained for a time period
of approximately 10 minutes after all power is removed.
New batteries should be installed before this time peri-
od elapses or clock settings will be lost.

BATTERY CONDITION

Battery condition can be observed when the unit is
turned on or if the 'LIGHT' button is pressed if no AC
ADAPTER is connected to the receiver. W hen the
POWER key is pressed, or when the 'LIGHT' button is
pressed, a screen will be observed similar to the follow-
ing illustration during the first two seconds after depres-

INSTALLATION

UNPACKING

Carefully remove the lextronix E1 receiver and included
AC ADAPTER wall transformer from the shipping carton
and examine them for evidence of damage. If any dam-
age is noted, immediately contact the transportation
company responsible for delivery, or return the unit to the
dealer from whom it was purchased. Keep the shipping
carton and all packing material for the transportation
company to inspect. The original carton and packing
material should be retained for repackaging should it be
necessary to return the receiver. Inspect the packing
material for any accessories or printed material before
storing the box. Locate the registration card, fill it out,
and immediately return it to lextronix to insure registra-
tion and validation of warranty.

LOCATION

For fixed locations, the lextronix E1 receiver should be
operated from the AC ADAPTER. Keep curtains and other
flammable material away from direct contact with the A
ADAPTER to avoid overheating the transformer which
could result in failure or fire.

FIXED INSTALLATION

After unpacking the unit, connect the antenna system to
the 'EXT ANTENNA' input, or select the INTERNAL anten-
na and extend the build in telescopic antenna. Plug the

to the Figure 1 on page 12 for the diagram of a typical
fixed installation.

sion. After that time, the normal E1 display will be
observed.
(1) Battery Condition Graph - This bar graph shows the
relative charge of the batteries installed in the
receiver. You will note that on the left, there is an
"EMPTY" notation and on the right is a "FULL"
notation. A fully charged set of batteries will pro-
duce a graph reaching the "FULL" notation, and as
the batteries discharge, the graph will extend only
slightly passed the "EMPTY" notation.
(2) LOW BATT - If this flashing reversed video indicator
is observed, the batteries are too low for satisfactory
operation and must be replaced.
Note: Regardless of battery condition, neither items 1
or 2 above will be observed if the unit is connected to
the AC ADAPTER. If the AC ADAPTER is not connected,
the condition graph will only be observed upon power
up or with depression of the 'LIGHT' button.

PORTABLE OPERATION

For use in a portable environment, the lextronix E1
receiver is operated from four (4) internally mounted "D"
cell batteries. These batteries are not supplied and must
be installed prior to portable operation of the receiver.
See BATTERY INSTALLATION section on page 9 of this
manual. For longest battery life, alkaline batteries are rec-
ommended for this product. NOTE: REMOVE THE BAT-
TERIES IF THE RECEIVER IS TO BE STORED OR OTH-
ERWISE NOT OPERATED FOR AN EXTENDED PERI-
OD OF TIME TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE lextronix
E1 DUE TO POSSIBLE BATTERY LEAKAGE OR COR-
ROSION EFFECTS. The lextronix E1 receiver does not
rely on the batteries for retention of memory channels. If
power is lost, clock settings are maintained for a period
of approximately 10 minutes to allow time to install new
batteries. As long as good batteries are installed in the
unit, the clocks are maintained regardless of whether
there is external power applied or not.

ANTENNA REQUIREMENTS

(Refer to Figure 1, page 12)
The lextronix E1 receiver incorporates side panel switch-
es to select between the internal telescopic antenna and
various types of external antennas. The built-in telescopic
antenna is available for use on all bands. A PAL type
antenna connector, also located on the left side panel, is
provided for external antennas for LF, MW, SW (HF is
used to designate these ranges) and FM bands. A PN
