Installation

Settings

As the RF Receiver “communicates” with the Chad Remote Controller, you have to set the same Receiver ID (identity) on both appliances. The settings depend on whether you have a single RF Receiver or multiple RF Receiver.

Single RF Receiver

When you use only one RF Receiver, you can accept the default setting for the Receiver ID (ID=0). Make sure your Chad Remote Controller is set to the same default setting (see the Chad User Guide for more details).

Multiple RF Receiver

If you want to operate several of your devices independently, e.g. grouped on different locations, you will need multiple RF Receiver. When using several RF Receiver, it is important to assign a unique Extender ID to each RF Receiver. 16 Extender IDs (from 0 to 9 and from A to F) can be assigned.

1Choose an Receiver ID for the RF Receiver by turning the ID dial with a small screwdriver.

2On the Chad Remote Controller, choose the same Extender ID for each device controlled by the RF Receiver.

Refer to the Chad User Guide for more information.

3Try to operate your devices with the Chad Remote Controller.

The red LED will blink when the RF Receiver receives a correct command.

4Repeat this procedure for every RF Receiver.

RF Interference

If your devices are not responding to commands or if the red LED on the IR blaster is blinking without sending commands, it might be possible that there is RF interference. This can be the case when other RF appliances are operated nearby, for instance by your neighbours.

When you notice RF interference, you have to choose another channel on your RF Receiver. 4 channels (CH from 0 to 3) can be assigned.

1Choose a channel for the RF Receiver by turning the CH dial with a small screwdriver.

2On the remote controller, choose the same channel for each device controlled by the RF Receiver.

Refer to the Chad manual for more information.

3Try to operate your devices with the remote controller.
