Your COBRA 18R2 controller is for the most part, maintenance-free, but there are a few things that can be done before putting away your firing controller for the season.
Here are a few maintenance recommendations for your COBRA 18R2 controller.
- Remove batteries, inspect contacts to ensure no corrosion or visual damage.
- Check all buttons to confirm none are sticking and that they bounce back after release.
- Check all LED indicators and 7-segment displays.
- Note: If an LED or 7-segment display bar is not functioning, the 18R2 will still run normally.
- Check the antenna connector and confirm there is no corrosion or damage. Ensure the antenna screws on smoothly, and the antenna connector does not rotate freely.
- Confirm the USB connector and other connectors such as SMTPE or Deadman are not damaged, corroded, or have any physical issues.
- Confirm the battery door snaps on and off correctly.
- Store in a dry, room-temperature environment.
- Confirm signal strength, at 100 feet, raised ~1m, you should see between -45 and -65dB on average.
If you discover any issues during the maintenance inspection, please reach out to COBRA support at help@cobrafiringsystems.com or via the phone at 518-741-4300.
