4.2. Pairing Plugs with the Remote Control
Each plug needs to be paired with the remote control to establish communication. Follow these steps for each plug:
- Plug the DiO Nano On/Off Plug into a standard wall socket. The LED indicator on the plug will flash slowly.
- Within 5 seconds of plugging in the device, press the ON button for the desired channel (1, 2, or 3) on your remote control.

- Repeat this process for each plug, assigning each to a different channel (or the same channel if you wish to control multiple plugs simultaneously).
Note: If the pairing is not successful within 5 seconds, unplug the device and try again. Each plug can be linked to up to 32 different DiO 1.0 transmitters.
