3. PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS TO RECEIVER MODULE
In order to operate the receiver module remotely with a transmitter, it
must be programmed to the receiver module.
To program a remote to the receiver module, a "Learn" code must be
transmitted, follow the instructions below to transmit the "Learn" code
to the receiver.
1. Put the receiver module that you plan to program
into programming mode. Refer to the User's
Instructions of that receiver module.
2. Use a sharp object to press the "PROG"
button on the back of the transmitter. The red
LED on the transmitter will be on for 15 seconds.
3. Press the button on the remote that you plan to
ata
use when the LED is steadily on to transmit the
"Learn" code.
4. Once the remote is programmed, the receiver
modules will quit from programming mode and
the programmed transmitter is ready to be
used now.
Press the
desired
button
3. PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS TO RECEIVER MODULE (CONT)
Learn Code
Follow steps 2 and 3 above to transmit the "Learn" code when
programming the remote to receiver modules.
You may follow the same instructions to program different buttons on the
transmitter to different receiver modules.
4. ON / OFF OPERATION
Pressing the programmed button on the transmitter once will toggle
the status of the load that is connected to the receiver module, i.e. if the
light is off, pressing the button turns on the light, and vice versa.
When the programmed button is pressed, the red LED flashes briefly
indicating signal is transmitting.
5. BRIGHTNESS CONTROL OPERATION
Besides turning on and off a light, you may also control the brightness
of the light if the receiver module and the light bulb is dimmable, i.e. either
incandescent light or dimmable compact fluorescent light.
To change the brightness, first turn on the light.
Then press and hold the programmed button on the transmitter will change
its brightness.
Hold the button until the desired brightness is reached, then
release the button.
Press and hold the same button again on the transmitter to change the
brightness again in the opposite way. When the desired brightness is
reached, release the button.
6. ERASING TC SERIES TRANSMITTERS
There are 2 types of receivers and erasing transmitter from these 2 types
of receivers are different. Please follow the erase procedure based on the
receiver you have.
Type A) Self Erase - Model PL-318, PR-318, PA-318, LS-318, WR-001
Self Erase means there is a erase button on the receiver, by pressing this
erase button, all transmitters can be erased.
To erase transmitters from these receivers, simply follow the instructions of
these receivers. The erase procedure does not involve the transmitter.
Type B) Erase by Remote - Model LX-318, MD-318, MR-318, WE-001
Erase by Remote means there is no erase button on the receiver, so a
programmed transmitter is needed in order to erase the memory of the
receiver. You need to transmit a "Erase" code from the Remote. Follow the
instructions below to erase the remote from the receiver.
1. Press the PROG button on the back of the remote.
