BATSCANNER

Manual

Thank you for purchasing Elekon AG's BATSCANNER.

The BATSCANNER is an easy to use bat detector. It converts the ultrasonic bat calls into an

audible frequency with the „mixer" principle (heterodyne). What makes the BATSCANNER unique

is that the mixing frequency is adjusted and displayed automatically for the detected bat species.

Thus, the different bat species can be heard without manual tuning and its main frequency can be

seen easily.

Notes

Instructions for safe use:

Children must be supervised whilst using this product. Do not disassemble or modify

the product. Please read this manual carefully and entirely before using this product.

Warning:

The microphone and the speaker (openings) as well as the entire BATSCANNER

must be protected from rain and generally from liquids and harsh environmental

influences.

Batteries:

For the operation 3×1.5 V AAA Alkaline batteries (LR03) are placed in the battery

compartment on the back of the BATSCANNER. (Note the polarity when inserting

batteries). Old or defective batteries must be removed and disposed properly.

Depending on the battery type an operation of about 20 – 25 hours is reached.

Rechargeable batteries down to 3×1.2 V with the same size can also be used.

Sensitivity:

BATSCANNER primarily is a headphones device. If operating without headphones

indoors, in cars, near electronic devices or close to surfaces, etc. at high volume a

feedback loop through the speaker can occur. This is expressed in whistling noise.

Because of the automatic frequency adjustment of the BATSCANNER such effects

can not be suppressed completely without reducing the sensitivity. Remedy: use in

"free" environment (distance from obstacles) and possibly take back the volume or

use headphones.
