1. Prescribed use The sole purpose of the ‘FS20 S8-2’ 4/8-channel hand-held transmitter is to remotely control the various components of the FS20 wireless control system. Make sure that the product does not get damp or wet. No part of the product may be modified or adapted.
4. Explanation of icons This icon with an exclamation mark in a triangle points to particular dangers associated with the handling, function or operation of the product. The ‘hand’ icon indicates special tips and operational notes. 5. Safety instructions The product’s guarantee becomes invalid, if the product is damaged as a result of failure to observe these operating instructions! We do not assume any liability for any resulting damages!
6. Notes on batteries/rechargeable batteries • Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children. • Do not leave batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around as they could be swallowed by children or pets. In such a case, seek immediate medical care! •...
7. Inserting/replacing batteries • Carefully remove the film cover on the lower side of the hand-held transmitter and the button layout’s paper strip. The film cover is only clipped onto the side. • Now open the battery compartment by pressing the upper part of the battery compartment lid (the straight end with the narrow opening) about half a millimetre towards the centre of the lid (a small hook holds the lid of the battery compartment in its case), and then remove the lid.
9. Operation Please note: In the delivery state the components of the FS20 wireless control system (for example, a wireless switch socket) do not respond to remote control com- mands from the hand-held transmitter. They must first be addressed according to the instructions provided in the respective device’s user manual.
Make sure you coordinate or set this shared house code for all the transmitters before programming the receivers for the first time, as the associated house code is also sent to the receiver during this procedure. The transmitters’ channels are already set to the same addresses and only need to be changed if required, for example, if you are using an extensive FS20 wireless control system with numerous receivers/transmitters.
• Operation for a double number of channels A different channel is assigned to each button. The control indicator briefly lights up to signal that a command has been transmitted. Switching Pressing a button quickly (for less than 0.4 seconds) sends a switching command. Whenever a button is pressed the addressed receiver changes its switch state from ‘OFF’...
10. FS20 address system basics The FS20 wireless control system operates with a ‘house code’. This means that your neighbour can also use the same wireless control system and the two systems will not interfere with each other (provided that the house code has been programmed differently). 256 different addresses can be set within a house code.

See the example in section 11. d). This address system opens up a variety of possibilities. For example, you can even implement access authorisations by assigning three garage doors to different single addresses and a joint function group (‘garage doors’). Several people can then each be given a hand-held transmitter with a relevant single address for one garage door, while all the garage doors can be opened via a hand-held transmitter with a programmed function group address, or all the doors can be automatically closed in the...
11. Integrating the ‘FS20 S8-2’ hand-held transmitter into the address system The house code, an address group and a subaddress are used for coding the hand-held transmitter and its switching channels. You can also use special address group assignments to program the hand-held transmitter as a local or global master.
The following address combinations (address group/subaddress) are preassigned to the button combinations of the hand-held transmitter: Button combination: Address: 11 11 11 12 11 13 11 14 See the ‘Addressing for a double number of channels’ subsection below for information on addressing for a double number of channels.
Possible are: 1144, 1244, 1344, 1444, 2144, 2244, 2344, 2444, 3144, 3244, 3344, 3444, 4144, 4244, 4344 Global master (4444) If you set the address group and subaddress for a channel to 44, then this channel functions as a global master. All receivers that are programmed with this global master address are controlled simultaneously.
d) Example of an address assignment When you require a large, extended system it is advisable to select addresses systematically so that you have an overview of the addresses that have already been assigned and so that you can jointly control the programmed receivers simply and meaningfully in groups. House code, e.g., Global 1234 1234...

Possible address groups are: 11, 12, 13, 14, 21, 22, 23, 24, 31, 32, 33, 34, 41, 42, 43 In order to be able to separately control each receiver, you need to program each receiver to a single address. A subaddress is also required in addition to the address group that is already selected (room A: 11, room B: 12, room C: 13, room D: 14).
12. Handling • Protect the product against humidity, cold, heat, dust, and direct sunlight. • Never dismantle the product. Only have the device repaired by a skilled technician otherwise the device’s licence will become invalid. • The buttons on the hand-held transmitter may be inadvertently pressed when transporting it in a bag or pocket.
14. Disposal a) General information When the product is no longer usable, dispose of it in accordance with the applicable statutory regulations. b) Batteries and rechargeable batteries As the consumer, you are legally obliged (regulation on the disposal of batteries) to return all your used batteries and rechargeable batteries.
