FAQs

What type of batteries do the VTX alarms and receiver use?

The Avid VTX 2+1 Bite Alarm Set uses 2x AAA batteries for each alarm head and the receiver. High-quality batteries are recommended for optimal performance and battery life.

How far can the receiver be from the alarms?

The VTX EPS Receiver offers stable signal transmission up to 150 meters between the alarms and the receiver.

How do I change the LED color on the alarms?

You can change the LED color options (Green, Blue, Red & Yellow) using the soft-touch side buttons on the alarm head.

What does the 'bleep memory function' on the receiver do?

The bleep memory function on the receiver helps you identify which rod was triggered last, allowing for quick identification of which line had a bite.

Can I use illuminated swingers with this set?

Yes, the alarms are fitted with a 2.5mm Power-Out Socket with a weather-sealed bung, which is compatible with most illuminated swingers or bobbins.

What is the SafeGuard Anti-Theft Alert System?

The SafeGuard Anti-Theft Alert System sounds a warning if an alarm head is powered off, providing an extra layer of security for your equipment.

How do I know when the batteries need replacing?

A cyan LED on the alarm head indicates low battery. Battery levels are also displayed on the receiver when it is powered on.

Troubleshooting

Alarm not powering on

Ensure batteries are correctly inserted and are not depleted. Try using a fresh set of high-quality AAA batteries.

No sound or weak sound from speaker

Check the volume dial to ensure it is not set to minimum. Confirm batteries are fresh.

Receiver not detecting alarm signals

Verify that both the alarm and receiver are powered on and within the 150m range. Check for potential sources of interference. Re-pair the devices if necessary, following manufacturer instructions.

LED lights not working

Ensure the correct LED color setting is selected. Check battery levels in the alarm. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Anti-theft alert system not functioning

Confirm the alarm is powered on. The system is designed to alert if the alarm is powered off, not for other types of movement. Ensure batteries are sufficient.
