[. . . ] All VCR commands are now cleared from memory. Clearing the Motion Sensor Code Using the VCR Commander Once you've programmed and tested everything, using the VCR Commander is easy. When you want to use the VCR Commander, make sure that you turn your VCR on and change the video input so that it can record your camera. You can clear the motion sensor you programmed into the VCR Commander: 1. Press and hold the PLAY button on the VCR Commander until the red light stays on. The light will stay on. Checking the VCR Commander Status The red light on the top of the VCR Commander lets you know what the VCR Commander is doing: !While the VCR Commander is waiting for motion, the red light blinks slowly, about every one and a half seconds. When motion is detected, the red light blinks quickly, about every halfsecond. While VCR Commander is recording, the red light blinks about every second. 3. The light will turn off and the motion sensor code will now be cleared from memory. Installing Batteries After you have set up your VCR Commander, you can install four C cell alkaline batteries (not included) in the battery compartment on the bottom of the VCR Commander. Leave the VCR Commander connected to power when inserting the batteries, or your learned commands will be lost. 8 9 VCR COMMANDER II (UX23A) OPTIONS VCR Commander II has three features that aren't available in the standard VCR Commander (UX21A). TROUBLESHOOTING VCR Commander Won't Learn VCR Commands If you have trouble getting your VCR Commander to learn VCR commands, first make sure that the IR emitter is not connected while you are trying to learn. Put new batteries in your VCR remote control. You can also try changing the position of the VCR remote when learning. You may need to change the angle that you are pointing the remote, move it closer to the VCR Commander, or move it farther away. After you've made some adjustments, follow the setup steps again. Timing is important, so don't wait too long between steps. If you wait too long between steps when programming, the VCR Commander will "time out" and you will need to start over. If an error occurs while programming, the VCR Commander's light will flash (VCR Commander II will also beep). Repeat the setup procedure. Programming Multiple Motion Sensors The VCR Commander II works with up to four X10 wireless motion sensors. To setup additional sensors, put batteries in them. Start by programming the first motion sensor: 1. Press and hold the UNIT button on the front of the sensor (inside the battery compartment) until the light on the motion sensor comes on solid. Then press it once and release it quickly.
