OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS

STANDARD FUNCTIONALITY

●  The standard functionality enables wireless operation of EXTA LIFE system 

receivers.

●  The function of each remote control button depends on the operated receiv-

er type the button has been assigned to during remote control programming 

(example: if paired to an ROP-22 receiver, the buttons can be used to turn 

lights on and off; if paired to an SRP-22 controller, the buttons can open and 

close roller shutters).

●  Individual  buttons  can  be  assigned  to  more  than  one  EXTA  LIFE  system 

receivers.

●  If a single remote control is to operate more than one receiver, the recom-

mended button operation mode is On/Off (example: button (1) is the On 

command, button (2) is the Off command, or vice versa).

●  When operating roller shutters with the P-456/36 remote control (paired to 

an SRP-22), two buttons are required (one for the Up command, and one for 

the Down command). The remote control can operate up to 18 roller shut-

ters independent of each other. The remote control buttons can work in the 

local or central (group) control mode.

●  You can assign the remote control buttons to receivers with different operat-

ing modes, the range of which depends on the receiver type (details see the 

applicable EXTA LIFE receiver user manuals).

●  If the remote control buttons are programmed to a time-mode receiver, each 

button can be assigned with a custom time value from 1 s to 18 hours.

●  You can delete specific button bindings from the receiver memory.

FUNCTIONAL WITH EXTA LIFE CONTROLLER AND APP

Functionalities enabled with the EXTA LIFE controller and app:

●  Remote binding of individual remote control buttons to specific controllers

●  Program remote control buttons to playback scenes or as conditions to ex-

ecute logical functions

●  Monitor the transmitter’s battery life.

These functions are enabled only on a remote control paired with an EXTA 

LIFE controller (by registering the remote control in the EXTA LIFE system).

OPERATION

1. Press   or   to select the button bank to operate. The active button bank is 

indicated with a single LED turned on at the respective button bank number 

(for the button banks from 1 to 5) Button bank 6 is active when all 5 LEDs are 

on. Confirm the active bank button by pressing any control button (1 to 6).

2. With a button bank active, operating the control buttons 1 to 6 transmits RF 

signals to the EXTA LIFE system components. The transmission is indi-

cated with the green LEDs flashing on the remote. A single LED at the active 

button bank number is on for button banks 1 to 5. When active, button bank 

6 is indicated by LEDs 2 and 4 flashing.

3. If the LED flashes fast several times when a control button is released, the 

remote control battery is low.

To properly work and control the receivers, you need to pair the remote control 

with them. See the applicable EXTA LIFE receiver user manuals for pairing 

instructions (programming specific buttons in the receiver memory). The re-

mote control will only transmit when a button is pressed and then released. 

No command signal is transmitted as long as a button is held pressed. This 

feature prevents fast battery drainage.

REPLACING THE BATTERY

During normal operation, low battery is indicated by the LED flashing fast sev-

eral times when a button is pressed and released to transmit. If the remote has 

been paired with an EXTA LIFE controller, the low battery status is indicated 

by the EXTA LIFE mobile app with the Battery: Low message. The remote 

control will indicate that the battery has to be replaced until the battery voltage 

drops to < 2.1 V. The low battery indication stops only when the battery has 

been replaced. The remote control requires a single CR2032 (3 V) battery.

1. Remove the two screws on the 

underside of the remote control.

2. Remove the top enclosure part 

with the silicon button pad.

3. Remove the battery from the 

clip.

4. Press any transmitter button 

several times (this is to drain 

residual voltage).

5. Install a new battery. Mind the 

polarity. The polarity is marked 

on the battery clip terminal (the 

“+” pole).

CAUTION: Wrong battery po-

larity may damage the remote 

control!

6. Attach the top enclosure part 

with the silicon button pad and 

retighten the two screws.

7. Verify proper operation: the re-

mote control LEDs should be on 

like when transmitting.

CAUTION! The transmission range is specified to open areas, which are perfect transmission condi-

tions without obstacles. If there are the following obstacle types between the transmitter and the 

receiver, expect the transmission range to be reduced by 10 to 40% for brickwork, 5 to 20% for wood 

and drywall, 40 to 80% for reinforced concrete, 90 to 100% by metal, and 10 to 20% by glass. The trans-

mission range is also adversely affected by overhead and underground high-voltage power lines and 

GSM transmitter bases located near the devices.
