FAQs

How do I change the LED color on the alarms?

To change the LED color, locate the rubber touch button on the rear of the alarm. Press and hold the button briefly to cycle through the available colors: Red, Orange, Green, Blue, Purple, and White.

What type of batteries do the Fox Micron MX alarms use?

Each Fox Micron MX alarm requires 2 x AAA batteries. It is recommended to use high-quality alkaline or rechargeable AAA batteries.

Can I use these alarms without a receiver?

Yes, the Fox Micron MX 2 Rod Set can be used as standalone bite alarms. The I-Com transmitter technology and receiver compatibility are optional features.

How do I adjust the sensitivity?

Sensitivity is adjusted using the dual-step adjustment feature. Experiment with the settings to find the level that best suits your fishing conditions and preferences, distinguishing between genuine takes and environmental disturbances.

What is the purpose of the power out socket?

The power out socket allows you to connect and power illuminated bite indicators. This synchronizes the visual indication from your bite indicator with the main alarm unit.

Are the batteries included with the set?

Typically, batteries are not included with the Fox Micron MX 2 Rod Set and need to be purchased separately.

How do I ensure a long lifespan for my alarms?

To ensure longevity, always clean the alarms with a soft, damp cloth and store them in the provided hard case when not in use. Avoid exposure to extreme weather conditions and submerging them in water.

Troubleshooting

Alarm not turning on

Ensure 2 x AAA batteries are correctly inserted in each alarm. Check battery contacts for corrosion and clean if necessary. Try fresh batteries.

No sound or light indication

Verify the alarm is powered on. Check that the volume is turned up. Ensure LED color is selected and not set to 'off' if applicable. Test with a different bite indicator if possible.

False bleeps or chatter

Reduce the sensitivity setting using the dual-step adjustment. Check for wind, currents, or debris impacting the line.

Receiver not connecting

Ensure the MX Receiver is powered on and within range. Follow the pairing procedure outlined in the MX Receiver manual. Check battery levels on both the alarm and receiver.

LED color not changing

Ensure the rubber touch button is clean and dry. Press firmly and hold briefly to cycle through colors. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
