    1. Entering Pairing Mode:
    a. Press the pairing button for 1 second. The motor will jog left and right once to indicate it has entered pairing mode.
    Note: Any transmitter can be paired in this mode.
    b. Turn off the motor power for 5 seconds. Then, press and hold the UP button on the transmitter. After 3 seconds, turn on the motor power. The motor will jog left and right once to indicate it has entered pairing mode.
    Note: Only the transmitter with the UP button held down can be paired. Other transmitters cannot be paired.
    c. Press and hold the STOP button on an already-paired transmitter for 5 seconds. The motor will jog left and right once to indicate it has entered pairing mode.
    Note: Any transmitter can be paired in this mode.
       
    2. Pairing:
    While in pairing mode, press the UP button on the transmitter to be paired once. The motor will jog left and right once, indicating successful pairing.
      
    3. Switching Jog/Continuous Mode:
    While in pairing mode, press the STOP button on the transmitter once. The motor will jog left and right once, indicating successful mode switching.
    Note: The motor defaults to continuous mode; switch to jog mode when needed. In continuous mode, if the upper and lower limit points are not yet set, the motor will still operate in jog mode. It will also operate in jog mode during limit point setting.
       
    4. Direction Reversal:
    a. While in pairing mode, press the DOWN button on the transmitter once. The motor will jog left and right once, indicating successful direction reversal.
    b. Press and hold the direction reversal button on the motor head for 7 seconds. The motor will jog left and right once, indicating successful direction reversal.
       
    5. Deleting a Single Code:
    While in pairing mode, press the back button on the transmitter once. The motor will jog left and right once, indicating successful deletion of a single code.
       
    6. Deleting All Codes:a. Press and hold the pairing button for 7 seconds. The motor will jog left and right twice, indicating successful deletion of all codes.
    b. While in pairing mode, press and hold the back button on the transmitter for 7 seconds. The motor will jog left and right twice, indicating successful deletion of all codes. After deleting all codes, the motor will restore to factory settings.
    Note: If there is no operation within 10 seconds after the motor enters pairing mode, it will automatically exit pairing mode. After deleting all codes, the motor restores to factory settings and clears all memory.
       
    7. Jog Angle Adjustment:
    Press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons on the transmitter simultaneously for about 5 seconds until the motor jogs once, indicating entry into adjustment mode. Then, press and hold the STOP and UP buttons simultaneously to increase the jog angle by one level, or press and hold the STOP and DOWN buttons simultaneously to decrease it by one level. After a successful adjustment, the motor will jog once as a prompt. If there is no prompt, the operation failed or the limit has been reached. After completing the adjustment, press and hold the STOP button on the transmitter for 2 seconds. The motor will jog once and exit adjustment mode.
    Note: If there is no operation within 30 seconds after the motor enters jog angle adjustment mode, it will automatically exit the setting state.
       
    8. Setting the First Limit Point:
    Press the back button on the transmitter. The motor will jog left and right once to enter limit setting mode. Press the UP button to set the upper limit, or press the DOWN button to set the lower limit. Move the motor to the desired position, then press the back button on the transmitter once. The motor will jog left and right again, indicating the limit point is successfully saved.
       
    9. Setting Additional Limit Points:
    Move the motor to the desired position. Press the back button on the transmitter once. The motor will jog left and right once to enter limit point setting mode. Press the back button again; the motor will jog left and right once more, indicating the limit point is successfully saved.
    Note: If there is no operation within 30 seconds after the motor enters limit point setting mode, it will automatically exit the setting state.
       
    10. Fine-Tuning Limit Points:
    First, control the motor to run to the limit point. Press the back button on the transmitter; the motor will jog left and right once to enter fine-tuning mode. Use the UP or DOWN buttons on the transmitter to move the motor to the exact desired position, then press the back button once again. The motor will jog left and right once, indicating successful fine-tuning.
       
    11. Deleting a Limit Point:
    Control the motor to run to the limit point you want to delete. Press and hold the back button on the transmitter for 7 seconds. The motor will jog left and right once when the button is pressed, and jog left and right again after 7 seconds, indicating the limit point is successfully deleted.
       
    12. Additional Notes:
    a. A maximum of 6 limit points can be set. The two furthest limit points are referred to as the upper/lower limit points; the others are referred to as intermediate limit points.
    b. The first limit point must be set as either the upper or lower limit. If it is set as the upper limit, the motor cannot move upward beyond this point, and other limit points can be set at any position downward. Conversely, if the first limit point is set as the lower limit, the motor cannot move downward beyond this point, and other limit points can be set at any position upward.
    c. Each limit point can be fine-tuned or deleted individually. (Note: Limit points can only be fine-tuned and cannot be deleted individually; however, deleting all codes will clear them.)
    d. In jog mode, if the UP/DOWN button is released within 1.5 seconds, the motor will move slightly and then stop. If the button is held for more than 1.5 seconds, the motor will continue to run continuously.
    e. In continuous mode, if the UP/DOWN button is pressed twice in quick succession (once per second), the motor will run directly to the upper/lower limit point without stopping at intermediate limit points.
  • How to Operate the Timer Transmitter

    1. Channel Locking:
    Press the channel selection button to choose the desired channel. Then, press and hold the "STOP button + any channel selection button" simultaneously for 3 seconds. The current channel and all subsequent channels will be locked.
    2. Channel Unlocking:
    The unlocking method is exactly the same as the locking method.
    3. Power On/Off Button:
    Press and hold the "Power button" for 2 seconds to turn the transmitter on or off.
    4. Pairing Button:
    Used in conjunction with the controller or motor to perform pairing, limit setting, and other configuration functions.
  • Does the touch transmitter support all A-OK receiver-enabled products?

    No.
       
    A-OK offers various products with receiver functions, such as infrared receivers, clothes dryer receivers, and customized receivers. Since the universal touch transmitter supports 433MHz RF signals, it is only compatible with standard A-OK RF receiver products.
