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 and is always recommended.
To Lock:
Start a binding from the MKFOB (simultaneously press
and hold button
1
and
2
until the LED starts flashing yellow,
approximately 2 seconds). Press and hold buttons
1
and
3
until
the LED blinks red.
To unlock:
Start a binding from the MKFOB (simultaneously press
and hold button
1
and
3
until the LED starts flashing yellow,
approximately 2 seconds). Press and hold buttons
2
and
3
until
the LED blinks green.
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 and handle the
green printed circuit board. While the
unit is designed to withstand handling,
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 handling the
exposed 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.
With your hand under the MKFOB, turn the
base of the housing over so that the printed
circuit board drops out of the housing into
your hand.
3.
Remove the old battery by pushing it out of
the metal clip that holds it in place.
4.
Install the new CR2430 3Volt battery with the
positive (+) plane against the metal clip as
shown here.
