10 TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Cause Remedy

Recharge with compatible AC
adaptor and check connection and
positioning of PV panel.

Check connection and orientation
of PV panel.

Check battery polarity

Ensure transmitter is positioned
away from metal objects and the
aerial on motor or receiver is kept
straight and away from metal

Move transmitter to a closer
position

Check power supply to motor is
connected and active

Check that wiring is connected
correctly (refer to motor
installation instructions)

Recharge with AC adaptor or check
connection and positioning of PV
pane

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 function overview

- section 3)

Motor is not responding

Motor beeps 10 times when in use

Cannot program a single Motor
(multiple motors respond)

Battery in motor is depleted

Insufficient charging from Solar
(PV) Panel

Transmitter battery is discharged Replace battery

Battery is inserted incorrectly
into transmitter

Radio interference/shielding

Receiver distance is too far from
transmitter

Power failure

Incorrect wiring

Battery voltage is low / PV (solar)
panel issue

Multiple motors are paired to the
same channel.
