Quick Index

Troubleshooting

Issues	Possible Causes	Solution
The motor has no response	Battery in motor is depleted	Recharge with compatible AC adaptor and check connection and positioning of solar PV panel
	Insufficient charging from Solar PV Panel	Check connection and orientation of solar PV panel
	Remote control battery is discharged	Replace battery
	Battery is inserted incorrectly into remote control	Check battery polarity
	Radio interference / shielding	Ensure remote control and the antenna on the motor are positioned away from metal objects
	Receiver distance is too far from Remote Control	Move remote control to a closer position
	Power failure	Check power supply to motor is connected and active
	Incorrect wiring	Check that wiring is connected correctly (refer to motor installation instructions)
Motor beeps 10 times when in use	Battery voltage is low / PV (solar panel issue)	Recharge with AC adapter or check connection and positioning of solar PV panel
Cannot program a single motor (multiple motors respond)	Multiple motors are paired to the same channel.	Always reserve an individual channel for programming functions
		SYSTEM BEST PRACTICE – Provide an extra 15 channel remote in your multi-motor projects that provides individual control for each motor for programming purposes
		Place all other motors into sleep mode (ref to P1 button instructions)
