Battery

One 3V lithium battery (2032).

Setting the Operational Mode

REM1 functions in Magellan mode or Omnia mode (Omnia mode is not supported in v3.1 or higher). For wireless receivers that use the Magellan protocol, the remote control must be in Magellan mode. For wirelessreceivers that use the Omnia protocol, the remote control must be in Omnia mode. By default, the remote control is in Magellan mode.

To set the operational mode, press and hold the and buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds. If the remote control LED flashes once, it is in Magellan mode. If the LED flashes twice, it is in Omnia mode.

LED Functionality

REM1 will perform different flashing sequences of its LED during normal operation that will inform the user whether the remote control is in Magellan or Omnia mode. When the remote control is in Magellan mode the LED will flash rapidly, and when the remote control is in Omnia mode, the LED will stay illuminated.

Enrolling Remote Controls in Omnia Mode

In order to enroll a remote control that is in Omnia mode, the user must press any button (until the LED lights up each time) twice.

Replacing the Battery

Remove the two screws from the back of the remote control and remove the back cover.
On the side of the battery compartment opposite to the battery clip (see Figure 1), gently pry the battery using a non-metal object (e.g., Teflon screwdriver).
While being sure not to damage the battery clip, insert the new battery with the positive terminal facing up.
Set the back cover in place, and fasten it with the two screws.

Note: A "Low Battery Signal" is sent to the control panel when battery is below 2.3Vdc. Upon power-up, a "Low Battery Restore Signal" is sent to the control panel when the battery voltage level has reached 2.3Vdc or higher.

Danger of explosion exists if the lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.
