When pressing an external switch connected to the IR-transmitter, it will start the scanning
sequence.
•
Scanning starts on first key on last page used.
•
A light in each key will illuminate for a chosen time.
•
When all keys on a chosen page is scanned through, it will start over again with the first
key on the same page.

belonging to the key that is illuminated at the moment.
•
The green and red lights will light up as described in chapter 2.2.
•
When IR-transmission is finished, scanning sequence will halt on actual key for 3 seconds
before it proceeds. This makes it easy to activate new IR-transmissions on same key.

2.7 Battery
Pico4, Pico8 and Pico16 has a rechargeable battery.
•
Red flashing for 2 seconds when transmitting IR indicates low battery.
•
Recharge battery with the included battery charger.
•
When charging: green slow flashing.
•
When fully charged: steady green light.
•
Typical time of charging from empty battery is 4-5 hours.
•
The transmitter can be used when charger is connected. In this case, the green charging
indication will be disabled some seconds when it transmits IR. Information about light
indicators may be found in chapter 2.2.
•
A cold battery will normally have lower performance than a room tempered battery.
2.7.1 Empty battery
The battery shall not be empty when stored. Recharge battery before the IR-transmitter is
placed for storage for a long time. If the IR-remote is not used for a long time, it is
recommended to recharge it once a year.
No settings, including IR-signals, will be deleted if the battery is empty.
2.8 Outdoor use
Picomed IR remote controllers can be used outdoors, but they should be protected against
water and fluids. Avoid spilling of drinks since this can result in damage to the remote
controller. In a case of fluid entering the remote controller, the controller should be removed
