This process is called “Association.” Handheld remote and base unit communications are established at Cervis, Inc. before shipping when systems are ordered. However, it may be necessary to establish or re-establish communication between a remote and a base unit at some point.
SmaRT BU-xH6R C1: BU-xH6R/PTO Remote Communication To Associate Before attempting to associate, the base unit and handheld must be OFF. Base unit and SmaRT 2-, 4-, and 6-button handheld association is established using the following steps: 1. Remove power from the base unit and turn off (time out) the handheld device.
Page 23
Once the process is complete, all LEDs light briefly and then go out. 9. Release the Dissociate button. The SmaRT base unit will not communicate with any handheld remote units. A handheld remote must use the Association Procedure (above) to re-establish a communication link with the base unit. 2019 Cervis, Inc.
SmaRT BU-xH6R C2: BU-xH6R/CB Remote Communication To prevent inadvertent machine movement, be sure to Caution remove power from the Base Unit before attempting to Associate or Dissociate. Before starting the Association process, turn OFF the console box remote and remove power from the base unit.

Base Unit Note: Be aware that all remote associations to the base unit are now broken. 2019 Cervis, Inc.
SmaRT BU-xH6R C3: BU-xH6R/MCB Remote Communication To prevent inadvertent machine movement, be sure to Caution remove power from the Base Unit before attempting to Associate or Dissociate. To Associate (see Figure 11) The MCB remote must be OFF and the base unit must have power removed before starting the Association process.
4. Observe the LEDs. When TX begins to blink, power up the base unit while continuing to hold switch SW1 and the Power button. When all four LEDs light solid, release SW1 and the pushbutton. Note: Be aware that all remote associations to the base unit are now broken. 2019 Cervis, Inc.
SmaRT BU-xH6R C4: BU-xH6R/PG Remote Communication To prevent inadvertent machine movement, be sure to Caution remove power from the Base Unit before attempting to Associate or Dissociate. To Associate (See Figure 12). The PG remote must be OFF, and the base unit must have power removed before starting the Association process.
3. Press and hold button 2, then press and hold button 1. Hold both buttons simultaneously. 4. Wait until the amber LED2 goes out. Release the two buttons being held. 5. Press and release button B16. The GREEN LED1 and the RED LED3 turn ON. 6. Power up the base unit. 2019 Cervis, Inc.
SmaRT BU-xH6R If the Association is successful, the AMBER LED2 will flash. If communications are not established following the Associate procedure, repeat until communication between the handheld and base unit is achieved. To Dissociate (see Figure 14) Figure 14. XX-218 Dissociate Mode ...
