Pathfinder Remote Head (PF200R)

Service Bulletin regarding the Pathfinder Remote Head cold weather enhancements.

February 13, 2020

Issue:

In cold weather, some customers are reporting a startup delay in the PF200R (Pathfinder Remote) siren. This delay is caused by low current setting in the firmware of the communication chip within the PF200R control head.

A firmware upgrade is needed to enhance the cold weather operation (to -40 Celsius) of the Pathfinder Remote (PF200R) sirens.

Pathfinder software versions prior to version 2.2.0.0 are affected and will need to be updated.
