2.4 GHz Handsender
Lit. Code: INST-CL-RM-111313
Programming Guide
Product Overview
Key Features
With the addition of a new range of
motors, new control systems and features
have been added for both convenience
and flexibility. This new line incorporates
the advanced 2.4 GHz bidirectional control
with mesh network capability. This platfor m
will be found in all product lines and will
complement the modern selection of
fabrics and hardware. A primary difference
between this handsender and 433 MHz
controls is the operating method. For
traversing systems, operation is by the
“Left” and “Right” buttons. Lifting systems
are operated using the “Up” and “Down”
buttons.

In order to program the motor, the system must first be connected to a power source.
Note: 2.4 GHz motors are initally programmed via a programming button located at the
head of the motor. Alternatively, you may enter programming mode via the Single Select
feature, however, this only works if the intended motor is already learned to the remote
or the motor has not been learned to any remote (factory default).
Note: It is possible to program multiple motors simultaneously by placing all intended
motors in program mode, then learning the handsender and channel.
Learning a Handsender/Channel
1. Press the “Program” button on the
motor and the system will begin to
step back and forth.
2. Select the desired channel on the
handsender and press the “Program”
button on the back of the remote.
You need a pen or paper clip.
3. Continue to other program functions or exit program mode by pressing the
“Program” button on the motor. Once exited, the motor will stop stepping.

How to Enter “Single Select” Program Mode
Single Select mode can be used to identify and program motors without using the
program button located on the motor head. This mode will cycle through motors that are
currently learned to your handsender, or are still in factory default mode. Single Select
WILL NOT place motors learned to other handsenders in program mode.
1. To enter Single Select mode, hold the “Stop” button on the front of the handsender
while pressing the “Program” button on the back of the handsender. You will need a
pen or paper clip.
2. The handsender will now enter search mode and look for any motors within the
listening range and place the first-recognized motor into program mode. While in
search mode, the LEDs on the handsender will cascade up and down. If the located
motor is not the one you desire, press the “Right” or “Left” button on the remote to
cycle to another motor.
3. Once your desired motor is located, per for m any programming functions you require.
4. You can exit Single Select mode at any time by quickly pressing the “Right” button
twice.
Programming Groups
Multiple motors of different types can be programmed together in a group (or multiple
groups). For best per for mance, BTX recommends grouping systems by operating direction
(lifting systems together and traversing systems together). This is due to the fact that
operation of these systems varies from “Up” and “Down” to “Left” and “Right”.
Setting a Group
1. Select the desired group channel on handsender.
2. Press the “Program” button on each of the motors you want to group together. All
systems should start stepping.
3. Press the “Program” button on the back of the handsender. All systems should stop
stepping for a moment to confir m the channel is learned, then continue stepping.
4. Press the “Program” button on each motor to exit program mode.

Operating 2.4 GHz motor with 433 MHz Control
433 MHz
2.4 GHz
The motors will operate nor mally using the “Open”, “Close”, and “Stop” buttons on the
remote. Additionally, the inter mediate settings can be controlled using the “A”, “Center”,
and “B” buttons.
The singular exception for standard control is with the 2.4 GHz vertical blind motor. To
operate the vertical system completely, it is necessary to pair the motor to two channels.
One channel is used to tilt the vanes, the second channel is used for traversing the
vanes. The standard configuration when using this control setting is to have titling by
default. For traversing, the SuperLink will convert the “Up” and “Down” (“Open” and
“Close”) buttons to the “Left” and “Right” functions as used by the 2.4 GHz controls.
