sequences, you have to use the Jukebox command. For example: if you end sequence S00 with the jukebox

command, it will then move on to S01 and so forth. "Q" represents quit. Once the sequence has played

entirely, the Patriot will go silent. "R" represents repeat. Once the sequence has played entirely, the Patriot

will play that sequence again until it is interrupted by the operator. The Patriot can accept up to 10

sequence files. These files will need to be in a format similar to the following examples:

S00 Sequence 1.seq

S01 Sequence 2.seq

S02 Sequence 3.seq

As you can see above, each file can be broken down into three parts. The first part is the identifier

(prefix/index) for the particular sequence. For example, "S00" indicates that this is the FIRST sequence. The

second part of the name, "Sequence 1", describes the title of this sequence. The third part, ".seq", is the

file extension that defines this file as a sequence file. Note that the .seq file extension is not native to any

operating system. This is a unique file extension for FOXPRO game calls that support sequences. A

sequence file may appear as an unknown file type and display on your computer with an "unknown" or

"unassociated" icon. When creating new sequence files, please check for existing sequence files already

using the same identifier (prefix/index). For example, if "S00" is already used by an existing sequence file,

then you must not use "S00" for the new file or the result will be a conflict. Valid identifiers span from S00 –

S09 to correlate with all 10 possibilities. The sequence files are stored directly in the root directory of the

Patriot, alongside of the regular audio files. On a Windows based PC, using a piece of integrated software

such as Notepad is all that you will need to successfully build a sequence file. Mac users would use

something such as Textedit, which is a standard application.

Maximizing Remote Range

Remote range can be affected by many factors. Some of these factors can be controlled while others

cannot. In order to achieve the best possible remote range with your Patriot digital game call system, it is

recommended that the following points be observed:



Fully extend the telescopic antenna on the TX433 remote control.



Always use a high-quality alkaline or lithium battery in the remote.



Always maintain clear line of sight between the remote control and the Patriot. Any

obstructions—no matter how significant or insignificant—can adversely affect the radio signal.



Keep the remote control a minimum of six inches away from your body, gun barrel, and metal

shooting sticks as these things can detune the remote control.



Hold the remote control vertically with the antenna pointing skyward (see image below):



Avoid using the device remotely when you are near power lines, cellular phone towers, and

radar (such as near airports or military installations).



Try to elevate the caller off of the ground by approximately three feet. This can greatly maximize

your overall remote control range.
