6. Registering a FS20 transmitter
Toregisterthewirelessswitchsocket‘FS20 ST’ with a FS20 transmitter (for
example, a remote control from the FS20 wireless control system or other
devices, such as the load monitor ‘FS20 FMS’), proceed as follows:
• Press and hold the control button on the ‘FS20 ST’ for at least 15
seconds. The control indicator/LED on the wireless switch socket starts
to blink and the device is now in programming mode.
Alternatively, the wireless switch socket can also be plugged
into the socket with the control button already pressed. This
way the device switches immediately to programming mode
(control indicator/LED blinks).
•Briefly press a button of the desired key combination on your remote
control or corresponding control button of a FS20 device (for example,
load monitor ‘FS20 FMS’).
When the wireless switch socket receives the code the control indicator/
LED stops blinking.
The wireless switch socket is now programmed to this remote control or
the corresponding FS20 device.
• If required, the programming can be replaced at any time by another
button on the remote control, or by another remote control channel. To
do this, proceed again as described above.
Additional functions (for example, timer programming) are
described later in this user manual.

after each power-on command. After this time has expired, it
automatically switches off.
The timer is programmable for an on-time of between 1 second and 270
minutes (4 hours 30 min).
In order to program the timers you require a remote control
from the FS20 wireless control system. Please refer to the
corresponding user manual.
It is possible to program the timer for the load monitor
‘FS20 MS’ with its command menu; the following section
does not apply to the ‘FS20 FMS’.
a) Programming the timer
•Simultaneously press and hold both buttons of the respective button
combination on your FS20 remote control for one to five seconds (1 to 5
sec).

measurement for the desired on-time begins.
• After the desired amount of time has expired press both buttons on the
remotecontrol again simultaneously foroneto fiveseconds (1to5 sec).
