1. Introduction
The purchase of a comfort handheld transmitter with graphic display was a good decision.
You have acquired a high-quality product from the house of GEIGER.
The comfort handheld transmitters allow you to send three, six or twelve different codings to
control a range of different actuators (receivers). The control can be either
• Individual
• Grouped or
• Centralized .
No labour-intensive and time-consuming laying of control lines is needed as all switching signals
are transmitted via radio.
The following actuators (radio receiver with integrated control) can be controlled with the GEIGER
comfort handheld transmitters:
• all GEIGER motors with built-in radio receivers
• all external GEIGER radio receivers
2. Safety instructions
The operation of the actuators and the electrical products shall only take place when you are sure
that there is no risk to people, animals or property.
• The radio remote control should be kept out of reach of children
• If service work or adaptations are necessary, the device is to be immediately taken out of
service and secured against inadvertent use.
