WARNING
IF YOUR UNIT HAS MULTIBOX DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PROGRAM ADDITIONAL TRANSMITTERS IN THE
FIELD. TELEMOTIVE MUST COORDINATE ACCESS CODE ASSIGNMENTS WITH THE NEW TRANSMITTERS
PRIOR TO EXPANDING MULTIBOX. PLEASE CONTACT TELEMOTIVE IF YOU NEED TO ADD ADDITIONAL
TRANSMITTERS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH
AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
Many receivers have Multibox capability that allows up to 8 transmitters to access a single system. Only one transmitter
may control the receiver(s) at a given time. Access is on a first come first serve basis. Once a transmitter has gained
control, another transmitter may not access the receiver(s) until the controlling transmitter relinquishes control by
transmitting an OFF command to the receiver(s) or the receiver(s) times out due to inactivity.
The first transmitter to send an ON command after the receiver has been released will then gain control of the receiver(s).
The number of transmitters (up to 8 depending on receiver configuration) allowed to control the receiver(s) is dip switch
selectable on the Receiver Board.
NOTE
THE DESIRED MULTIBOX TRANSMITTERS MUST HAVE CONSECUTIVE ACCESS CODES BEGINNING FROM
THE FIRST ACCESS CODE.
