A. Initial Setup
1. Connect a 12V DC transformer (included) to the receptable on the back of the control box. The
LED will light up green to indicate power.
2. Be careful not to mount or enclose SmartConnect on or in metal, as this may effect radio
reception
3. Set the MMC RF receiver or motor in its Pairing Mode. Refer to the installation and programming
instructions for the relevant product for this procedure.
4. Using the RF Channel Dial, select the channel to be paired. Letters A through E stand for
channels 10 through 14, and channels 0 and F represent all channels. Briefly press the Pair
button (5 sec max), the window treatment will jog to indicate the channel has been learned.
Please note that current protocol only supports up to 14 channels.
5. Repeat the steps above for each channel or product to be memorized, up to 14.
6. To test the control operation, simply press the UP, STOP, or DOWN buttons on the front of the
SmartConnect. The window treatment should move appropriately. The LED will flash red to
indicate the radio signal has been transmitted.
