2. RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) FUNCTIONALITY
2.1 Pairing and Unpairing
The dongle is a target device in the pairing procedure. This means that the dongle
can only receive requests for pairing and unpairing. The initiator of pairing normally
comes from the controller device which is usually the remote controls.
For the OVU760001/01 dongle, there is no button so pairing is initiated when the
dongle is powered up. The pairing period will last 15 seconds. During this pairing
period, when the dongle is successfully paired with the remote, a pairing link is
stored in the dongle pairing table. A total of 10 devices can be paired. When there
are 10 entries in the table, the receiver will not pair with any more new devices.
Existing devices in the table need to be unpaired before new devices can be paired.
Please note that after pairing, when there are 10 entries in the pairing table, the RED
Colour indicator LED will blink 4 times. This is to show that the table is full.
To unpair a device, the remote control will have to send a unpair message to the
dongle. When unpair is done, the Red Colour Indicator LED will blink twice. Please
note that the dongle cannot initiate the unpair process by itself.
One point to note is that the remotes can unpair itself without the presence of the
dongle. This can lead to the dongle having a pairing entry with a remote that has
deleted its entry. To remove the entry in the dongle, use the same remote to pair and
unpair with the dongle again. Look out for the LED to blink twice, indicating a
successful unpair.
