To programme other functions on other buttons,
repeat steps 3 to 5.
Special instruction for alternating-
code radio systems
If the radio-controlled system cannot be oper‐
ated after repeated programming, check whether
the system to be operated is equipped with an
alternating-code radio system.
To do that, look this up in the user manual of the
system.
For systems with an alternating-code radio sys‐
tem, the integrated universal remote control and
the system must also be synchronised.
Please find information on synchronisation in the
user manual of the system to be set.
To make synchronisation easier, enlist the assis‐
tance of a second person.
