FUNCTION SETTINGS 2.1 TRANSMITTER 2.1.1 Channel Setting ON PB3 Set transmitter channel by moving the function dipswitch located inside the battery compartment to “on” position. Reinsert the two batteries and press any button to power up the transmitter. At this point the Status LED will display a series of red, green and orange blinks showing the current software version. Then press and hold PB3 for up to 1 second to go into the transmitter channel setting mode. At this point the Status LED will display a series of green and red blinks showing the current system channel. A green blink represents the tens (+10) and a red blink represents the units (+1). For example, one (1) green blink followed by five (5) red blinks is channel 15. Now select new channel by pressing PB1 and PB2 on the transmitter. Press PB1 to increment the units (+1) and PB2 to increment the tens (+10). For example, press PB2 two times and then PB1 four times is channel 24. When finished the transmitter Status LED will display the newly selected channel. Then press and hold PB3 again to transmit the newly selected channel to the receiver (receiver must be powered on). Let go PB3 only when receiver Status LED displays fast green blinks (transfer complete); this process should only take 1~2 seconds. Exit transmitter channel setting mode by press and hold both PB1 and PB2 at the same time for up to 1 second (Status LED returns to software version). Then take out the batteries and move the function dipswitch back to “off” position. Note: When selecting a new channel make sure each button press do not exceed 3 seconds. Important Note: When you are changing the transmitter channel you must also change the receiver channel at the same time, prior to exiting the channel setting mode (see instruction above). If you exit the channel setting mode without pressing PB3 to transfer the newly selected channel to the receiver then you would have to change the transmitter channel back to its previous setting (same channel as the receiver) and then redo the channel setting process again. FLEX MINI System Instruction Manual January 2014 7 of 16 2.1.2 Keypad Type Setting ON PB4 Set transmitter keypad type by moving the function dipswitch located inside the battery compartment to “on” position. Reinsert the two batteries and press any button to power up the transmitter. At this point the Status LED will display a series of red, green and orange blinks showing the current software version. Then press and hold PB4 for up to 1 second to go into the keypad type setting mode. At this point the Status LED will blink red showing the current keypad type. A green blink represents the tens (+10) and a red blink represents the units (+1). For example, two (2) red blinks is keypad type #2. Now select new keypad type by pressing PB1 and PB2 on the transmitter. Press PB1 to increment the units (+1) and PB2 to increment the tens (+10). For example, press PB1 two times for keypad type #2 and three times for keypad type #3. When finished the Status LED will display the newly selected keypad type. Exit keypad type setting mode by press and hold both PB1 and PB2 at the same time for up to 1 second (Status LED returns to software version). Then take out the batteries and move the function dipswitch back to “off” position. Note: When selecting a new keypad type make sure each button press do not exceed 3 seconds.

Reinsert the two batteries and press any button to power up the transmitter. Then press and hold PB3 and PB4 at the same time for up to 1 second to go into the remote pairing setting mode (Status LED off). TX to TX Pairing: PB3 PB4 → Sending data – original transmitter (Press and hold PB3) Receiving data – new transmitter (Press and hold PB4) Sending data (original transmitter) by press and hold PB3 and receiving data (new transmitter) by press and hold PB4 at the same time. When the Status LED on the receiving data end (new transmitter) turns to constant green while pressing down PB4 the pairing is completed. Exit remote pairing mode by press and hold both PB1 and PB2 at the same time for up to 1 second (Status LED turns to software version). Then take out the batteries and move the function dipswitch on both transmitters back to “off” position. RX to TX Pairing: → Sending data - receiver (Press and hold PB1) PB4 Receiving data – new transmitter (Press and hold PB4) Sending data (receiver) by press and hold PB1 located on the decoder board (see above) and receiving data (new transmitter) by press and hold PB4 at the same time. When the Status LED on the receiving data end (new transmitter) turns to constant green while pressing down PB4 the pairing is completed. Exit remote pairing mode by press and hold both PB1 and PB2 on the new transmitter for up to 1 second (Status LED turns to software version). Then take out the batteries and move the function dipswitch back to “off” position.

WALL FLEX MINI System Instruction Manual January 2014 12 of 16 4. OPERATING PROCEDURE General Operating Procedure The Flex Mini transmitter and receiver operate by means of RF transmission. When any of the eight (8) buttons on the transmitter is pressed it will activate the designated output relay in the receiver. When the button is released the designated output relay in the receiver is deactivated. When the button is released the transmission stops within 2 seconds. Keypad Type #1: The transmitter is powered on and operated by press any button on the keypad (green blinks on Status LED). The transmitter goes into sleep mode after 5 minutes of inactivity (buttons not pressed). Press any button to wake up the transmitter and continue operation. Keypad Type #2: The transmitter is powered on by pressing the On/Off button one time for up to 1.5 seconds (green on Status LED); the receiver main is also activated at the same time. The Status LED will blink green every 4 seconds thereafter for up to 5 minutes when no buttons are pressed (transmitter standby). After 5 minutes the transmitter will go into sleep mode. Press the On/Off button again but within 0.5 second this time to wake up the transmitter and continue operation. Shut off the transmitter power by pressing the On/Off button for up to 1.5 seconds (red on Status LED and then off); the receiver main is also deactivated at the same time. The system will not work when pressing any buttons prior to initiating the On/Off command (Status LED blinks 2 red). Keypad Type #3: The transmitter is powered on by pressing the Start button one time for up to 1.5 seconds (green on Status LED); the receiver main is also activated at the same time. The same Start button becomes an auxiliary function thereafter. The Status LED will blink green every 4 seconds thereafter for up to 5 minutes when no buttons are pressed (transmitter standby). After 5 minutes the transmitter will go into sleep mode. Press the Start button again for up to 1.5 seconds to wake up the transmitter and continue operation. Shut off the transmitter power by pressing the Stop button for up to 1.5 seconds (red on Status LED and then off); the receiver main is also deactivated at the same time. The system will not work when pressing any buttons prior to initiating the Start command (Status LED blinks 2 red). Changing Transmitter Batteries Changing transmitter batteries by unscrewing the battery cover located on the backside of the transmitter counterclockwise. During battery installation make sure the batteries are installed correctly, “+” to “+” charge and “–” to “–” charge. Also make sure the screw is tightened after battery installation to avoid water, moisture, dirt, grease, or other liquid penetration. CAUTION RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS PLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS. FLEX MINI System Instruction Manual January 2014 13 of 16 5.
