Linking Key¶
Linking recivers¶
Linking key can be used as a simple way to link receivers to a transmitter without the need to initiate the linking process on the transmitter. This allows the user to just ente the code into the receiver and it will be linked to the transmitter with the same code.
Note: The transmitter must have a linking key set to allow for this.
Note: Receivers can still be linked the traditional way when linking key is used by the traasmitter.
Cloning transmitters¶
Linking key is also a handy way to clone transmitters for transmitters that support this. By entering an 8 digit linking key code in two, or more, transmitters they will act as if they were the same transmitter.
This allows to have transmitters in separate physical locations and move linked receivers between the locations without the need to re-link the receivers.
Note: Cloned transmitters must not be present in the same physical coverage area as the receivers will not know which one to connect to.
Note: Due to the nature of Linking Key that controls the identity of a radio link, the user should be adviced to use "good" key. A "good" key is one that is not easilly guessed, or one that is not likelly to be used by someone else. Examples of key that are not considered to be good is for intance (but not limited to): 11111111, 22222222, 11223344, 12345678, 10000000, 11000000, etc.
