9 Wireless communication - LED/LCD
9.1 Transmitter/receiver
Before you mount the transceiver box to the wall you should
always test if you have a signal between the transceiver box
and the hose handle in your entire home. Connect the box to
the cleaner and turn the cleaner on and off using the hose
handle from different places in your home.
Connecting the transmitter/receiver
To be able to use the wireless Flexit hose
handles, you must first connect the
transmitter/receiver to the cleaner. This is
done by using the 2 meter network cable
(RJ45) that comes with the transmitter/
receiver. Connect the cable to the
transmitter/receiver and the right socket in
the back of the cleaner.
Installing the transmitter/receiver
Mount the transmitter/receiver on the wall minimum 1
meter (if possible) away from the cleaner for best signal
between the transmitter/receiver and the hose handle. The
transmitter/receiver can be moved to different places in
your home for a better range by using an up to 30 meter
network cable. Cables can often be bought in your local
Electronics store.
The first transmission
The hose handle and the cleaner needs to have a first
communication before starting the cleaner. This is also valid
if the hose handle has been replaced (spare part) or if you
want to connect an extra hose. Do like this before starting
your wireless cleaner:
1.
Unplug the main cord.
2. Plug in the cord again, and then push the on/off button at
the hose handle for approximately 10 seconds. This must
be done within 60 seconds after the cleaner has been
plugged in
3. The handle and the cleaner do now communicate.
