Pairing with the GEM Controller 

 
When the extender unit has been paired with the sensor transmitter it must then be paired with 
the GEM controller. 
 

Note: This operation must not be carried out for a least 5 minutes after the extender has 
been paired with the GEM transmitter. 

 
This is because the GEM transmitter will be transmitting the “find me” signal for 5 minutes after 
power  up.  If  the  controller  is  put  into  sensor  pairing  mode before the  “find  me”  signal has  been 
turned off the controller may inadvertently pair with the original transmitter thereby missing out the 
extender! 
 
Once 5 minutes have elapsed from pairing the extender with the transmitter the GEM controller 
can now be put into pairing mode. 
 
On the GEM controller enter set-up mode and go to set-up screen 5 (installer menu) and change 
the “PWR Sense ID” parameter from “OK” to “NEW”  
After 30 seconds set-up mode will exit and the pairing process will begin.

(Installer Menu Page 1) 

 
 
 

 
The GEM controller should now display [Finding New Sensor] on the bottom line of the display. 
 
Now turn off the GEM wireless extender and turn it back on again. 
 
The wireless extender will now transmit its “find me” signal for 5 minutes. 
 
The  GEM  controller  should  lock  to  the  transmitter  in  the  extender  unit    and  begin  normal 
operations in 2-20 seconds. 
 
If pairing is not completed in less than one minute then the extender is most likely out of range of 
the controller receiver. Try again with the extender unit closer to the GEM controller.
