(WVP required to perform this function)

Each.WVC.controller.requires.a.unique.

identification.number.for.proper.radio.

operation.with.the.WVP..Setting.unique.

addresses.for.each.WVC.allows.for.

separate.radio.programming.and.manual.

operations.with.individual.WVC.control-

lers.even.though.other.controllers.may.

be.in.the.surrounding.area..The.unique.

address.is.a.3-digit.number.from.000.to.

999..Once.the.address.is.set,.you.must.

remember.the.ID.for.future.operation..

(Refer.to.the.WVP.Owner’s.Manual.for.

detailed.programming.instructions).

To set the unique address on the WVC:

1.. Press.the.Transmit/Receive.button.on.the.WVP.to.enter.

the.communications.mode.(Lower.portion.of.display).

2.. Use.the.

.and.

.buttons.to.change.the.3-digit.

identification.number..Use.the.

.button.to.make.sure.

that.the.WVP.is.in.the.transmit.mode.with.the.arrow.on.

the.display.pointing.towards.the.address.icon.

.(see.

figure.1).

3.. Unscrew.the.rear.half.of.the.WVC.body.to.gain.access.

to.the.battery.compartment.

4.. Install.a.standard.9-volt.alkaline.battery.into.the.battery.

holder.(see.Connecting.the.Battery)..

5.. Wait.for.the.red.light.inside.the.battery.compartment.to.

come.on,.this.may.take.10-15.seconds.

6.. Immediately.press.and.hold.the.Transmit/Receive.

button.on.the.WVP..The.WVP.will.beep.twice.when.

transmission.commences..Release.the.button.

7.. The.WVP.will.beep.twice.again.when.the.identification.

number.has.been.learned.by.the.WVC.

8.. If.the.WVP.illuminates.the.failed.to.communicate.

icon.

.then.start.over.from.step.4.

NOTE: If no WVP communication takes 

place after the red light on the WVC comes 

on, the WVC will turn this light back off 

(after 20 seconds) and revert back to the 

address already programmed into the WVC.
