Malfunction
If the device cannot be used after repeated attempts at programming, please check whether the hand-held transmitter is equipped with an alternating code system.
To do so:
▷ Read the instructions of the hand-held
transmitter.
▷ Hold down the memory button of the
integrated universal remote control longer.
If the LED of the integrated universal remote control flashes rapidly for a brief period and then lights up continuously, the hand-held transmitter is equipped with an alternating code system.
In this case, program the memory buttons as described under Alternating-code hand-held transmitters.
Alternating-code hand-held transmitters
Please obtain information on synchronizing the device in the operating manual of the device being set up.
