Add Extra Base Stations (Slaves)
Slave base stations are added to supply the outputs for additional functions. All base
stations are supplied as masters and they must be reset to operate as a slave. Decide
which base station is to remain the master and then follow the directions below to register
the slave stations.
1. Ensure all remote consoles are turned off.
2. Unscrew and remove the lid from both base stations.
3. Turn on the power to both base stations. The green LED will light up on both stations.
4.
Slave:
Hold down the registration button, on the slave station, for 6 seconds until the
green LED turns off. Then release the button. The red LED will flash to indicate the unit
is in registration mode.
5.
Master:
Press and release the registration button. The green LED will stay on. The red
LED will flash to indicate the connection is registering. Registration is complete when
the red LED stops flashing on both base stations.
6. Repeat the process to add further slave stations as required.
7. Before replacing the lids on the base stations you need to record the unique ID number
for each base station. The ID is on the white label next to the registration switch.
This number is the same as the last 4 digits on the bar code label on the outside of the
base station.
