    Does anyone know how to simply make the remote work with the awning it was programmed for when it suddenly stops working with it? It's clearly not a battery issue, the one to four red lights still come on. Speaking of which, those red lights are a mystery. Sometimes there's one and sometimes there's four - sometimes they blink and sometimes they don't. We don't know whether there are ever two or three red lights. I have not been able to find an instruction manual anywhere that explains those lights or their button.

    No, you don't need physical access. Pairing is done via the remotes, so it shouldn't be any problem to connect your blinds.

    Note to you and others that was crucial to succeeding with the reset. Another video you made is the only of yours and others I’ve seen that mentions this “extra” step that’s not mentioned in the factory directions. Step 7 on factory directions states hold the program button until the motor jogs and then proceed to step 8. ***DO NOT RELEASE the program button after it jogs as it states. CONTINUE HOLDING for about another 8 seconds until it jogs a second time. Proceed to the next direction steps as stated and I hope your aggravations end as did mine. But I then had to reset the range. Easy: go to each desired end press both the my and direction, hold for a few seconds. Repeat opposite end. Next, Press and hold the program button until it jogs.

    Hi. I'm slightly confufsed by this and the 'adjust bottom' video. Both seems to follow the same steps, so how does the motor know that you are setting either the top or bottom position? In the original set up you needed to press the Middle and Up at the same time to set the bottom position. Thanks in advance

    Hi, the procedure is indeed very similar -> make the shutter roll to the lowest or highest position, press up and down simultaneously and hold until the motor jogs. Move to desiered position, press and hold "my" until the jog. That's it. But, only possible when: - motor has been programmed manually - lowest or highest position can be reached hope this helps..
