How to use

Pair the transmitter with DuoFern-compatible receivers according to the receiver manufacturer’s pairing procedure. Select the desired channel on the handheld unit and operate the control buttons to send commands to the paired receiver or actuator. For multi-channel operation, program each channel separately to the corresponding receiver so that each motorized device responds only to its assigned channel. Check battery condition before first use and replace batteries following the manufacturer’s guidance. As this is a customer-return unit, inspect its physical condition and test all channels prior to full deployment.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility with your existing DuoFern receivers and motor drives before purchase. Test pairing and full range of motion for each channel in the installation environment to ensure reliable signal coverage. Keep spare batteries available and position receivers to minimize radio interference from metal structures or wireless devices.
