Safety instructions
General information
•Please keep the instruction manual safe!
•Only use in dry rooms.
•Only use unmodified original parts from the control unit manufacturer.
•Keep children away from control units.
•Observe all pertinent country-specific regulations.
•Dispose of used batteries properly. Only replace the battery with one of
the same type (see Technical Data).
Caution
•Keep people out of the system’s range of travel.
•If the system is controlled by one or more transmitters,
the system’s range of travel must always be visible during
operation.
•Device contains small parts that can be swallowed.
4-en

Intended use
The transmitter described in these instructions must only be used for operat-
ing Centronic-compatible radio drives and radio control units.
•Please note that radio-controlled systems may not be used in areas with
a high risk of interference (e.g. hospitals, airports).
•The remote control is intended solely for use with equipment and sys-
tems in which malfunctions in the transmitter or receiver would not pose
any risk to persons, animals or property, or which contain safety devices
to eliminate such risks.
•The operator is not protected from interference from other telecommu-
nications systems and terminal equipment (e.g. even from radio-con-
trolled systems which are properly operated in the same frequency
range).
•Only connect radio receivers to devices and systems approved by the
manufacturer.
•Ensure that the control unit is not installed or operated
close to metal surfaces or magnetic fields.
•Radio-controlled systems transmitting on the same fre-
quency may cause reception interference.
•Note that the range of the radio signal is limited by legis-
lation as well as by design.

Explanation of functions
Channel
The channel of a transmitter can be programmed into one or more receivers.
One receiver is operated through an individual command, several receivers
through a group command.
Central command
If all the channels of the transmitter are selected, it is possible to operate all of
the assigned receivers/groups simultaneously.
Channel selection button
Up to 5 channels can be selected using the channel selection button. The indi-
vidual channels are indicated by the corresponding channel indicator lamp
lighting up. If all the channel indicator lamps light up at the same time, a cent-
ral command can be transmitted.
Transmission pilot light
A radio signal is indicated by the transmission pilot light lighting up. The trans-
mission pilot light flashes while transmitting if the battery is getting weak. The
transmission output and range decrease as the battery power declines. If the
transmission pilot light no longer lights up when a button is pressed, the bat-
tery must be replaced.

Putting the receiver into programming mode
Follow the Assembly and Operating Instructions for the re-
ceiver.

Programming the master transmitter
The master transmitter refers to the very first transmitter
programmed in a receiver. In contrast to subsequently pro-
grammed transmitters, the master transmitter enables,
among other things, the setting of limit positions (for drives
with integrated radio receiver) and the programming or de-
leting of further transmitters. Any transmitter that has separ-
ate UP, STOP, DOWN buttons and a programming button can
be a master transmitter.
If a transmitter is already programmed in the receiver, press
the programming button of the transmitter for 10seconds.
3s Press the programming button of the transmitter
for 3seconds whilst in programming mode.
▻The receiver confirms.
►Programming is now complete.
10-en

Programming additional transmitters
The number of additional transmitters that can be pro-
grammed depends on the receiver. This information can be
found in the instructions for the receiver.
3s Press the programmed master transmitter's pro-
gramming button for 3 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
3s Now press the programming button of a new
transmitter which has not yet been programmed in
the radio receiver for 3 seconds. Doing so activ-
ates the programming mode of the radio receiver
for a new transmitter for 3 minutes.
▻The receiver confirms.
3s Now re-press the programming button of the new
transmitter you wish to program for 3 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
►The new transmitter has now been pro-
grammed.

Deleting transmitters
Deleting individual transmitters
The programmed master transmitter cannot be deleted. It
can only be overwritten.
3s Press the programming button on the master
transmitter for 3 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
3s Now press the programming button of the trans-
mitter to be deleted for 3 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
10s Then re-press the programming button of the
transmitter to be deleted for 10 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
►The transmitter is now deleted from the radio
receiver.

Deleting all transmitters (except the master
transmitter)
3s Press the programming button on the master
transmitter for 3 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
3s Re-press the programming button on the master
transmitter for 3 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
10s Then press the programming button on the mas-
ter transmitter again for 10 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
►All transmitters (except the master transmit-
ter) are now deleted from the radio receiver.
13-en

Overwriting the master
Switch off the power supply to the receiver then switch it back on after
5seconds, or press the programming button or radio switch on the receiver.
▻The radio receiver remains in programming mode for 3minutes.
To ensure that the new master transmitter is programmed in
the desired radio receiver only, all other receivers which are
connected to the same power supply must be deactivated
from the programming mode. To do so, after switching the
power back on, execute a drive or stop command using the
transmitter for the given receivers.
10s Press the programming button of the new master
transmitter when programming mode is active for
10 seconds.
▻The receiver confirms.
►The new master transmitter has now been
programmed and the old master transmitter
overwritten.
