Using Multiple Remotes and RF Wireless Extenders 

When setting up a multi-remote, multi-extender account, it is important to remember which remote 
performs the Z-Wave network setup (the remote that you pair the lights and extender to). This remote is 
referred to as the 

Primary remote

. It is strongly recommended that you put a means of identifying the 

primary remote (e.g. a sticker) on the remote for easy identification later. 

Even though each remote is connected and a configuration file is downloaded after account setup, some 
Z-Wave information is not transmitted to the other remotes. 

Once you have completed the setup you must send the information from the primary remote to the other 
remote(s) (these other remotes are referred to as secondary remotes). This is an important step in 
ensuring that everything works properly. The instructions for this step can be found on the web page 
immediately after the configuration is downloaded. 

Once the remotes and RF extenders have been updated, you need to set the 

Primary remote

 and the 

Secondary remote

Note:

 Do not have more than one remote operating at the same time in the same room. 

Setting the Primary Remote: 

1.  Once you have updated your remotes, the display on the remotes will show a welcome greeting; 

press 

OK

.  

2. Continue 

pressing 

OK

 until you see the start of the 

Activities

 menu. 

3. Press 

System Options

4. Press 

RF Network Tools

.  

5. Press 

-->

 to view more options.  

6. Press 

Add a Secondary Controller

 (only the Primary remote has this option) to add the remote. 

Note: 

If you do not see this option, it means you are not setting the correct remote. Go to step 4 

in 

Setting the Secondary Remote

.  

7.  Once the remote has been added, a message will appear. Press 

OK

 to return to the start of the 

Activities

 menu.
