RC Operation

Demo mode and User mode

1. The remote should by default work in the Demo mode. IR is working but the user cannot use the voice button.
2. If the user selects “Demo Mode” from the first page of the TV host, the remote will stay in IR mode. 7.1.3 If the user selects the “Home Mode”, if the remote is paired already, it will get into the WIFI configuration directly. Otherwise, the user needs to press the “Home” key once or the “Home” key for 9 seconds depending on the state to pair. The Power key will stay the IR protocol when the TV is in the home mode, it will always send the IR code. 7.1.4 Once it is paired, the host will get into the WIFI setting page.

Pair
Press the Home button for 9 seconds, release the button, and the remote control begins to send broadcasting. After pairing with the host the remote control should be able to control the host.

BTW:

• A: When you do the pairing, make sure that the host is turned on, and it is in pairing mode, and make the remote control close the host as close as possible.
• B: If the host is not paired with the host within 1 minute, please check and confirm that the host side is in the pairing mode. After confirmation, repeat the A pairing operation.

Unpair Press the Left+ Back+Option button at the same time for 12 seconds, release the button, and the remote clears the existing pairing information and begins to send a pair broadcast and enter into demo mode.

Voice
After pressing the voice button, the remote controller begins to transmit the voice. (When using the voice function, you should try to keep the remote control MIC close to the sound source.)
