Troubleshooting
All remote-control systems shipped by GAMA Electronics are 100% functionally tested just prior to shipment.
If your RF remote control system does not work out of the box, stops working or functions intermittently please take the
following steps to resolve common issues. Please note that you must be at least 2-3 feet away from the receiver when
operating the remote control. Operating closer than 2-3 feet may result in no operation or intermittent operation.
1. Replace the A23 12V Battery in the transmitter
· The remote control can activate during shipping and drain the battery that is installed in the control. We
send a replacement battery with the system if this occurs.
2. Check the voltage supply at the receiver
· The receiver is designed to function at 100-240VAC. Voltage on the black and white wires should be
within this range.
3. Reprogram the remote control
· If the system is non-functional try to reprogram the control. The program may not have taken during the
programming process or the program button may have been pressed.
4. Listen and look for functionality on the receiver.
· The LED that is used for programming the system will illuminate when the receiver is activated. You will
also hear a “click” when the internal relay engages. If you can see the LED illuminate and you hear the
relay “click” the issue is most likely in the wiring or device being controlled.
5. Add a long-range antenna
· If the receiver is in an area that is averse to the reception of an RF signal, such as near a motor or in a
metal casing, a long-range antenna may solve the issue. Connect the antenna per the instructions on
page 3 and mount the antenna in an exposed area away from any motor.
