- Press either the left or right programming button. The left and right 3D light rings will change from rapid flashing to a steady glow, indicating successful button programming (mapping).
- Note: Up to 16 buttons can be programmed. If no button is pressed for over 1 minute, programming mode will exit automatically.
- To program the next button, repeat step 3.
Note: Programmed functions are retained after power off.
Clear Programming (Mapping) Function
