Introducing the RX+ Micron and Receiver, available as individuals as well as 2, 3 or even 4-rod presentation sets.

At Fox, they pride themselves on the reputation as one of the top manufacturers of bite alarms on the planet and now, after years and years of painstaking development they can finally bring you their greatest alarms to date; the RX+.

Fox RX+ Bite Alarm Features

The RX+ bite alarms are flagship alarms and, as you'd expect from Fox, come absolutely packed with features to help you put more fish on the bank.

Improved features compared to NTX-R Bite Alarm

Deeper ears with no increase in the height of the alarm

Twin multi-colour LEDs, one per ear and at the very top of the ear

External control of the multi-colour LEDs with Colour Sync™ function – simply change LED colour via button on the battery cover

Manually selectable day and night modes

External control of the Vari-Bright adjustable LED brightness to suit the conditions you are fishing in (choice of 3 LED brightness settings in day mode and 3 different brightness settings in night mode) simply adjust via button on battery cover

Larger clearance around the roller wheel and improved drainage vastly reduces chances of roller wheel freezing up in extreme cold conditions

Stronger range performance with RX+ Receiver

Improved sensitivity range (see below)

Intelligent Sensitivity Control

In all sensitivity settings (except maximum), the line must travel with continuous movement in the same direction for a specified distance, for at least 2 seconds to trigger the unit.

Any movement in the opposite direction will reset the distance counter to zero. This feature is designed to reduce or totally eliminate false-indications caused by wind and water movement.

Line Movement Settings:

Setting 1 (Min): RX+ - 90mm. NTX-R - 74mm.

Setting 2: RX+ - 73mm. NTX-R - 56mm.

Setting 3: RX+ - 56mm. NTX-R - 48mm.

Setting 4: RX+ - 34mm. NTX-R - 40mm.

Setting 5: RX+ - 17mm. NTX-R - 32mm.

Setting 6: RX+ - 11mm. NTX-R - 24mm.

Setting 7: RX+ - 5.6mm. NTX-R - 16mm.

Setting 8 (Max): RX+ - 2.8mm. NTX-R - 8mm.

Fox Micron RX+ Bivvy Light function

When the bivvy light feature is turned on via the switch on the back of the receiver it will behave in the following ways:

The indication lights on the receiver will be dimmed slightly to prevent the receiver from emitting too much light whilst the bivvy light is active

The bivvy light will only come on if three bite triggers are received in quick succession to prevent liners and false indication turning on your bivvy light unnecessarily

The bivvy light will fade into full brightness and remain on whilst the alarm continues to send trigger signals to the receiver. The light will fade out to nothing in the 5 seconds after the trigger lights have gone out on the receiver as long as no more indications are received.
