1.6 Connecting the ECT-2
The remote controller uses a two way communication system. To
know what product to control, the remote controller has to learn a
unique serial number stored in each product. Whit this number the
ECT-2 knows what unit to control.
This is an example showing how to include the preamplifier EC4.9
to the ECT-2:
1: Turn off the EC4.9
2: Then press and hold the Navigator left and down buttons, and turn
on the EC4.9 while still pressing down the buttons.
Press and hold both
before powering on.
3:The display on EC4.9 will show "searching for remote control"
after power on.
4: Now, at the same time press the SELECT and DEVICE buttons on
the remote controller for a couple of seconds.
5: On the EC4.9, the display will change to "Device found".
6: Restart the EC4.9. i.e. turn of the EC4.9 wait for 5 seconds and
turn on the system again.
All products from Electrocompaniet need this procedure before
being used together with the ECT-2
