How do I test / commission the RadioLINK Remote Control Switch?
- Slide the yellow battery switch on the back of the switch to 'ON';
- Press the red House-Code button;
- The red light on the front of the switch should come on;
- As soon as it does, release the switch;
- The red light on the front of the switch should start flashing. Put all other RadioLINK units into House Code. Check that the number of flashes equals the number of RadioLINK units. For example, 3 units = 3 flashes, 4 units = 4 flashes etc;
- After 15 minutes the switch will automatically stop flashing (showing it has 'sealed' the codes of the other units). Alternatively, the whole system can be sealed before this 15 minutes has passed by pressing the House-Code button again until the red light comes on solidly, then release. Finally, test the switch by flicking the 'Test' switch ON and checking that all alarms sound.
