6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Pairing with a Transmitter
To control the i-R Receive, it must first be paired with a compatible Selve radio transmitter (e.g., Selve i-R Transmit). The programming button is located on the back of the unit (see Figure 3.2 and 3.5).
- Ensure the i-R Receive is powered on.
- Press the programming button on the i-R Receive briefly (approx. 1 second). The connected device may briefly react (e.g., a short movement of a roller shutter) to indicate it is in pairing mode.
- Within approximately 10 seconds, press the desired "UP" or "DOWN" button on your Selve radio transmitter.
- The connected device should react again, confirming successful pairing.
- Repeat for additional transmitters if desired.
6.2 Basic Operation
Once paired, the i-R Receive will respond to commands from the linked Selve radio transmitter:
- Pressing the "UP" button on the transmitter will activate the 'Up' output.
- Pressing the "DOWN" button on the transmitter will activate the 'Down' output.
- A "STOP" or middle button (if available on the transmitter) will halt the current movement.
7. Maintenance
The Selve i-R Receive is designed for maintenance-free operation. No regular maintenance is required.
- Cleaning: If necessary, gently wipe the exterior with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Periodically check wiring connections for looseness or damage. Ensure the device is not exposed to excessive heat or moisture.
Do not attempt to open or repair the device. Refer to qualified personnel for any issues beyond basic operation.
