In order to replace batteries
and keep stored address dimming
level & scene information:
Note:
Be careful to properly install the
batteries. Battery reversal may cause a
permanent damage to the remote con-
trol.
1 Press the SET button for 2 seconds
to turn the unit off, or wait until the IR
DMX Controller shuts down on its
own (after 5 minutes of no activity).
2 Remove the 2 AA alkaline batteries
and quickly insert a new set within 15
seconds of the removal, making sure
to properly orient the battery contacts
as shown on the bottom of the battery
compartment.
3 Close the battery compartment.

back ON, point it at the IR Sensor and
press the SET button a few times.
This will guarantee that the dimmable
fixtures are set to the same levels that
were previously saved
in the IR DMX Controller.
When powering the IR DMX Controller
up for the first time after a battery
change, the Controller’s LCD will show
its installed software version. Make
note of this number in case it is needed
for technical assistance.
Note:
Be careful to properly install
the batteries. Battery reversal may
cause a permanent damage to the
remote control.
If the IR DMX Controller is left
without batteries for a period
longer than 15 seconds,
all the previously stored dimming,
addressing & scene information
will be lost, reverting to a default
value of 0%.
Note:
Remove the batteries from the
compartment if you plan on not using
the IR DMX Controller for an extended
period of time
Read battery manufacturers warnings
for safe use.
Dispose of batteries safely per state
