Quick Index

Troubleshooting

compatible AC adaptor and check connection and positioning of solar PV panel
Insufficient charging from Solar PV Panel| Check connection and orientation of solar PV panel
Remote control battery is discharged| Replace battery
Battery is inserted incorrectly into remote control| Check battery polarity
Radio interference/shielding| Ensure remote control and the antenna on the motor are positioned away from metal objects
Receiver distance is too far from Remote Control| Move remote control to a closer position
Power failure| Check power supply to motor is connected and active
Incorrect wiring| Check that wiring is connected correctly (refer to motor installation instructions)
Motor beeps 10 times when in use| Battery voltage is low / PV (solar panel issue)| Recharge with AC adapter or check connection and positioning of solar PV panel

Cannot program a single motor (multiple motors respond)

|

Multiple motors are paired to the same channel.

| Always reserve an individual channel for programming functions
SYSTEM BEST PRACTICE – Provide an extra 15 channel remote in your multi-motor projects that provides individual control for each motor for programming purposes
Place all other motors into sleep mode (ref to P1 button instructions)
