3. Setup and Pairing
To ensure proper functionality, the transmitter must be paired with your existing radio receiver system (e.g., gate opener, garage door opener). The pairing process typically involves activating a programming mode on your receiver and then transmitting a signal from the new remote.
3.1 Initial Pairing Procedure
- Access Receiver: Locate the control unit or receiver for your gate/door system. This often requires opening the control box.
- Activate Programming Mode: Press and hold the programming button on your receiver. Refer to your receiver's specific manual for the exact button and duration. An indicator light (LED) on the receiver may change state to confirm programming mode is active.
- Transmit from Transmitter: While the receiver is in programming mode, press and hold the desired button on your new FAAC TM XT1 transmitter (e.g., the home button or one of the directional arrows).
- Confirm Pairing: The receiver's indicator light should change again (e.g., flash rapidly, turn solid, or turn off) to confirm successful pairing. Release the button on the transmitter.
- Test Operation: After pairing, test the transmitter by pressing the programmed button to ensure it operates the gate/door correctly.
Note: If you encounter difficulties, consult the specific manual for your FAAC receiver or gate system, as programming steps can vary.
4. Operating Instructions
The FAAC TM XT1 433-1 Channel Transmitter is designed for straightforward operation of a single function (e.g., opening/closing a gate).
4.1 Basic Operation
- Activating the Function: Press the programmed button (typically the central home button or one of the directional arrows) once to send the command to the receiver.
- Range: Ensure you are within the operational range of your receiver. Obstructions and environmental factors can affect signal strength.
The black circular button at the top is generally an indicator or a secondary function button depending on the specific system configuration. The directional arrows may be used for specific movements (e.g., partial opening) if supported by your receiver.
