AMB Transponder Cloning
#286
True/False...
1) Your ptx transponders come with 21 IDs. True
2) 20 of the IDs are from a huge pool of IDs owned by MRT. False, well they are from the pool, but stay the same in all the ptx's
3) A custom ID is assigned to a customer as their ptx default ID and for reordering. False
4) A custom ID still belongs to the huge pool of IDs and can show up as one of the 20 IDs in other ptxs. True/False... it can show up as the "21st" number again
5) A cloned ID remains owned by the customer and kept out of the huge pool of IDs if the customer does not trade in the AMB transponder. True
6) A cloned ID is handled as a custom ID if the customer trades in the AMB transponder.True
Thanks!

From the FAQ at MRT
PTX ID Numbers
The PTX is available as individually numbered transponders(due to the AMB system having 'coded' ID numbers we cannot produce new numbers, ID numbers are "not" guaranteed unique)the ID number of each transponder can be changed by use of a 'setup' button (20 alternative ID numbers are available). Each individually numbered transponder has its 'custom' ID number written on the supplied instruction sheet with the 20 alternative numbers also listed as two sets of 10 ID's. Repeated numbers are not available for custom ID non-clonetransponders. Only cloned transponders can have identical ID numbers supplied, following an original AMB transponder having been sent to us to have the ID number clone copied.
Cloned PTX transponders can have copied numbers from either personal transponder (PT) or rechargeable battery type (RT)'hand out' transponders used at clubs. The transponder mustbe sent to MRT in the UK together with a 'clone order form.

My PTX was working great until a friend of mine opened the casing thinking of cutting the wire short, but found that the silicone was wrapping the PT and put back the casing without doing anything. Right now, the PTX is causing the car glitch! (removed PTX car was OK). Any1 encounter this? Terry, any idea of the problem and what's the solution? Send it back?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Hi jonest, removing the base from the casing will not cause any problems. I'd guess something else has changed with the car/setup, it could be the connection to the receiver, maybe check the PTX plug and receiver socket. If there is a problem you can't work out drop me an email and I will see what we can do to help fix it.
Thanks Terry
P/s: Btw the new PTX casing seems awesome. Would you be offering the casing to existing PTX users? It seems the base is about the same.

Ok thanks, I will wait for you to report back. Hope it all works ok again now.
Glad you like the new PTX casing! The new PTX hard cased version is a new design, the base is the same size but the height is lower. The old PTX and new PTX cases are not compatible, we don't have any upgrades available.

Hi Rogier. The turnaround time for cloning is about a week with us plus the shipping time back to you. Details are on the clone order form at www.rclaps.com also the PTX FAQ page has transponder and cloning information. If you need your AMB returned early before your clone(s) there is an option with the extra shipping charge, details are on the form.
