Troubleshooting
Issues | Possible Causes | Solution |
---|---|---|
The motor has no response | Battery in motor is depleted | Recharge with |
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)
