Menu 1.1. Add New Remotes
Menu 1.1.1. Add Remote
Any button can be set to control one or more of the three channels provided by the
SupaHelix system. When adding remote controls, it is recommended that a record be
kept of the ID number allocated by the system to each respective remote control and the
person to whom the remote control is given. This is necessary should selective deletion
be required at a later stage, or for the analysis of logging reports.
Together with the traditional single-press Learning, two secure Learning Modes have been
added for remote controls. These are intended to prevent unwanted remote controls from
being learned into the system during the remote learning process. The first is ‘Double
Press’ Learning, where the new button must be pressed twice in order to be learned in,
and the second is ‘Press for Three Seconds’ Learning, where the new button must be
pressed and held for a period of three seconds in order to be learned in.
Menu 1.1.2. Template Learning of Remotes
This function drastically reduces the time spent learning in new remotes when multiple
remote control buttons per remote control are being used in the system.
An existing (already learned-in) remote control is used as a template remote control
– and then all subsequent remote controls will be learned as ‘clones’ of the template
remote control for different unit numbers. When requested, press any button on the
template remote control. All new remote controls can now be learned with just one press
of any button, and will inherit all the functional settings of the template remote.
The template remote and remotes to be learned in will be required for this operation.
To add a new remote button, follow this procedure:
1. Press and hold the oblong button for a period of two seconds in order to enter the
menu.
2.
The very first menu item will be Remote Controls. Momentarily press the oblong
button – now acting as an enter key – to confirm your selection of this menu item.
3. Select the
Add New Remotes
sub-menu by pressing the oblong (enter) button.
4. Select the
Add Remote
sub-menu by pressing the oblong (enter) button.
5. Select your preferred learning method; either Single Press, Double Press or Press for
3 Seconds.
6. Specify a unit number to which you would like the remote control to be assigned.
7. Specify which output or combination of outputs the button should activate when
pressed.
8. Press the remote button you wish to learn into the system. How many times it needs
to be pressed and how long it needs to be pressed for will depend on the learning
method selected in Step 5.
You can now either:
•
Scroll to select a different unit and add the button of a different remote to the
newly selected unit for the same output
•
Or press the circular button to go back, scroll to select a different output and
repeat from Step 7
Exit the Add New Remotes menu.
