How to Avoid Interference from Other Remote Controls

If the 

busy LED

 on the Extender is blinking without the Remote Control sending commands, 

the Extender picks up signals from another Remote Control on the same channel. You can 
solve this problem by changing the channel.
You configure the channel in the 

Link Extenders to components

 step of the New Project 

Wizard and on the Extender. All Remote Controls and RF Extenders need to be defined on 
the same channel. Three channels (from 1 to 3) can be assigned.

1

  Choose a channel on the Extender by sliding the Channel switch.

2

  In the 

Link Extenders to components

 step of the New Project Wizard, choose the 

same channel.
Refer to the Configuration Program’s Online Help for more information.

3

  Try to operate your devices with the Remote Control.
