APPENDIX D

Resetting Remote Communication and Reprogramming the Motor

This procedure will completely reset the communication between the Remote Transmitter and Motor, as well 

as erase and reprogram the 

Open

 and 

Closed

 stop position settings of the Motor. 

This procedure programs the Awning Motor to accept commands from one primary Remote Transmitter.

This procedure overwrites the factory set 

Open

 and 

Closed

 positions with new 

Open

 and 

Closed

 positions. 

Note: To ONLY change the Open and Close preset positions, follow the procedure in Appendix A on Page 22.

ADD

 an 

additional Control Device (such as another Remote or Channel, or a Wirless Wall Switch);

• 

Press the Programming button on the back of the Transmitter that was supplied with the Awning until 

the motor “jogs.”

•  On the 

additional Control Device, press the Programming button until the motor “jogs,” then release.

To 

DELETE

 a Control Device, repeat the two steps listed above and the additional Control Device is removed.
