Communication with the sensor

3.1

Establishing connection with the sensor

Once the remote has been powered on, G will illuminate in red and begin to blink. To establish a connection with a particular sensor, aim
at the sensor and press G . The sensor's address (1 - 7) will illuminate on the keypad. The sensor's LED will briefly illuminate to confirm
communication. The RC Duo 2 is now ready to program the sensor. For help in selecting a particular sensor out of several, see section 4.3,
Sensor Scan Mode.
The connection between the RC Duo 2 remote control and the sensor can only be established while the sensor is in configuration mode.
Configuration mode is activated when the sensor is switched on. For safety reasons, this mode is exited automatically 30 minutes after the
last setting has been made, and the connection between the remote control and the sensor is interrupted.
The connection can be re-established in one the following ways:
- Pressing a button on the sensor OR
- Interrupting the electrical power supply to the sensor OR
- Using the "access code" function on the remote control (only available on some sensor models)
Please refer to the sensor user manual for more information.
3.2

Setting sensor parameters

The RC Duo 2 functions bidirectionally with the sensor. This means that changes to the settings on the sensor are immediately signalled back
by the sensor to the remote control.
