The “FH” type battery powered Mini Mitter transmitters have been in production for over 25 years. The age of this design is such that several electronic components used are no longer available. We have limited stock on hand. Orders are limited by available quantities. Consequently, production of FH type Mini Mitter transmitters will cease no later than March 31, 2008. Service of FH type transmitters will be discontinued one year later on March 31, 2009, meaning we will no longer offer refurbishment, recalibration, or repair of FH type transmitters after March 31, 2009.
Realizing that you and many of our valued customers have relied on these transmitters for many years, we are offering a generous Trade In Value Program through March 31, 2009 for Series 3000 VitalView components toward the purchase of the new Series 4000 no-battery E-Mitter transponders, ER-4000 Receivers and associated components.
Trade in values are applicable on a one-to-one basis (i.e. one Series 3000 receiver gets you one disounted Series 4000 receiver) .
The 3000 to 4000 Series Receiver Trade In Value Program is as follows*:
*Because receivers are not to be returned, we are incorporating a trade in value for TR, RTA or RA Series 3000 Telemetry Receivers into the ER-4000 Receiver special price, but do NOT require sending in your receivers.
TR, RTA or RA Series 3000 Telemetry Receivers = $250 trade in value toward purchase of
Part

We strongly encourage everyone to apply for funding now in order to be prepared to move into the Series 4000 system which will soon become our only product offering for temperature, activity, and heart rate telemetric monitoring from lab animals.
Please contact us for assistance in preparing a complete system pricing quote for your system upgrade. Cables and power supplies are also required, but, of course, the Series 4000 system is fully compatible with VitalView software. A serial port or USB to Serial adapter is needed in order to input data from ER-4000 Series Receivers to the PC. Up to 32 ER-4000 Receivers may be connected per PC.
