When two or more fans are located near each other, you may desire to have the receiver/
transmitter for each fan set to a di erent code, so that the operation of one fan does not
a ect the operation of the other fans.
In the transmitter you can access the jumpers from the battery compartment. e
jumpers are very small. You can move them most easily using a small pair of pliers or
tweezers. IMPORTANT! Before you change jumper switches, make sure the battery is not
connected to the transmitter.
