Re: IR Pogramming Problem

We had some tricky issues with this too.

First, try a few different remotes. You may have one that is incompatible with the IR PCB.

Second, we found that training the IR PCB took a couple of presses of the programmed key in order for the PCB to move on to the next LED.

1. Power up PCB while holding down the LEARN button.

2. Press and release the desired remote key. The LED should light and go out. Press the desired remote key again. The LED should light once and move to the next LED. Allow a few seconds between presses. Have a little patience.

3. Repeat step 2.

Do not hold down the programmed key for too long. This will trigger the error light.
