Operating Mode-3

In Mode-3, the MKFOB is bound to an individual room to allow the 
device to record and recall both Room and House scenes. This is 
done so that multiple key fobs can be used in the wireless system 
to control different areas within the home to perform localized 
tasks.

First, set the MKFOB to Mode-3.

 

1. 

Start binding from the MKFOB: Simultaneously press and 
hold button 

1

 and 

2

 until the LED starts flashing yellow 

(approximately 2 seconds).

2. 

Press and hold MKFOB button 

3

 until the LED changes to 

green then starts flashing yellow again (approximately 2 
seconds).

3. 

End the binding from the MKFOB: Simultaneously press and 
hold button 

1

 and 

2

 until the LED stops flashing yellow and 

turns green (approximately 2 seconds). 

Next, bind the MKFOB to the desired Room.

1. 

Go to the room controller device and initiate binding by 
pressing the binding activation keys until its LED flashes 
yellow (about 2 seconds). Binding is typically initiated by 
simultaneously pressing and holding the top and bottom of a 
paddle-operated device. 

2. 

Press and release any button on the MKFOB to wake it up 
and lock onto the binding operation. 

 

If its LED flashes yellow, it is already bound to the room. You 
can skip to step 3. 

 

If it flashes green, it is not yet bound to the room. 
Simultaneously press MKFOB buttons 

1

 and 

2

 until the LED 

turns yellow (about 2 seconds) indicating that the MKFOB is 
bound to the room.

3. 

Return to the same device used to initiate the binding and 
end the binding by pressing the binding activation keys until 
the device LED changes to solid green (about 2 seconds). 

  

When the MKFOB receives a close binding message (or no 
binding message is heard for 4.5 seconds) the MKFOB goes 
to sleep mode and the LED turns off. 

OPERATION

When a MKFOB is added to a system its scene buttons execute 
the same scenes as other house or room level scene controllers 
to which it is bound. (Refer to the Operating Mode charts for 
specific scenes recalled depending upon mode selected). To 
revise a scene, record the scene from the room or house level 
device to which the MKFOB is bound. 

Lock Key Fob

Locking the MKFOB prevents it from being inadvertently reset to 
factory defaults. Lock the key fob after scene configuration. 

To Lock:

  Start a binding from the MKFOB (simultaneously press 

and hold button 

1

 and 

2

 until the LED starts flashing yellow). 

Press and hold buttons 

1

 and 

3

 until the LED blinks red. 

Press and hold button 

1

 and 

to terminate the process.

To Unlock:

 Start a binding from the MKFOB (simultaneously press 

and hold button 

1

 and 

2

 until the LED starts flashing yellow). 

Press and hold buttons 

2

 and 

3

 until the LED blinks green. 

Press and hold button 

1

 and 

to terminate the process.

To prevent inadvertent scene reprogramming due to 

accidental pressing of a MKFOB button, lock the house 

confi guration from a house level scene controller.

Battery Usage

To ensure that the battery is not unnecessarily discharged, the 
MKFOB goes to sleep when it is not 
sending messages. When it wakes to send 
a message, it immediately goes back 
into the sleep mode once the message 
transmission has been confirmed and no 
other button activity is present.

Installing a New Battery

To install the battery, you must open 
the MKFOB housing. While the unit is 
designed to withstand handling, there is 
a circuit board inside, so you should avoid 
opening the housing in areas prone to excessive static electricity. 
Touch a grounded surface to discharge excessive static electricity 
from your body before touching the printed circuit board.

1. Open 

the 

MKFOB 

housing by inserting 
the edge of a coin into 
the notch on the corner 
of the unit, near the 
key-chain loop. Twist 
the coin to pop open the 
housing.

2. 

Remove the back 
housing; on it is the 
product identification 
label with battery 
instructions. The circuit 
board and battery 
remains in the front 
housing. 

3. 

Remove the old battery by pushing it out of 
the metal clip that holds it in place.

4. 

Install the new CR2450 3Volt battery with the 
positive (+) plane against the metal clip.

5. 

Reassemble the unit then snap the housing 
together. Test the buttons. Make sure you 
get the appropriate soft click when you press 
each button.
