2.1 Installation Note
1. Be sure to use the spare parts provided by our company.
2. Be sure to install the antennas before power on to avoid
damage to the circuit.
3. Try to make the receiver antenna without obstruction, and
the end part of the antenna is vertically downward without
bending, so as to avoid shortening the communication
distance or even failing to communicate due to obstruction.
4. Do not disassemble or refit without permission. If you
encounter any problem that cannot be solved during
installation, please contact us directly.
5. During installation, keep proper distance between
electronic devices to minimize electromagnetic
interference.
2.2 Precautions for Use
1. Before use, please make sure that all connection wires are
fastened reliably and all parts work normally.
2. Please open the configuration software of the remote
control and check whether the channels are normal.
3. Please check the surrounding environment to ensure that
there is no interference from other devices, otherwise T30
data transmission performance will be seriously affected.
4. Ensure that the antennas are free from obstacles and
bends during use, and stay away from large metal
structural parts as far as possible to avoid communication
obstruction
5. Check the power of the remote control before use. If the
parameter adjustment software shows that power is low,

5
please charge the remote control timely. If the remote
control is turned off, the receiver has entered the state of
out-of-control protection. Stop using it when the battery is
too low. Don't rely on the device's low-power alarm, which
is only a precaution and tells you when to charge. It takes
about 5-6hs to be fully charged.
