Manhattan T4
Manhattan T4 > Your T4 Remote

Remote Pairing for Multiple Manhattan Devices

Your T4 comes with a pair­ing fea­ture that con­nects your remote and box spe­cific­ally to each oth­er. Once paired, only that remote can con­trol that box, and that box will only respond to that remote. This fea­ture is par­tic­u­larly use­ful if you’ve got one or more oth­er Man­hat­tan products that you want to use along­side a T4. It allows you to:

  • Use up to nine T4 or T4•R’s in the same room without them inter­fer­ing with each other.
  • Use up to eight T4 or T4•R’s in the same room as a T2•R, T3 or T3•R without any interference.

How to pair a T4 remote and T4 box #

While your T4 is turned on and active:

  1. Press and hold the but­ton and a num­ber but­ton (1−9) on the T4 remote for 3 seconds.
  2. A mes­sage will con­firm: ​“The remote and box are paired on remote chan­nel X.”

To change just the remote’s chan­nel without affect­ing the box, press and hold P‑UP and a num­ber but­ton (0−9) for 3 seconds. This lets you use one remote to con­trol mul­tiple Man­hat­tan boxes on dif­fer­ent channels.

How to return to uni­ver­sal mode #

To unpair your remote and box, pair them on chan­nel 0:

  1. Press and hold the but­ton and 0 on the T4 remote for 3 seconds.
  2. A mes­sage will con­firm: ​“The remote and box are in uni­ver­sal mode.”

How to check the chan­nel set­ting #

While the T4 is turned on and active:

  1. Press and hold both the and but­tons at the same time for 3 seconds.
  2. The T4 will dis­play a mes­sage on the screen indic­at­ing its chan­nel number.
  3. The remote’s standby but­ton will flash blue to indic­ate its channel:
    • Flashes cor­res­pond to chan­nel num­ber (e.g., 5 flashes for Chan­nel 5)
    • Sol­id blue for 3 seconds indic­ates Chan­nel 0 (Uni­ver­sal)

Com­pat­ib­il­ity with Oth­er Man­hat­tan Devices #

Chan­nel 0 (Uni­ver­sal)

  • When a remote or box is set to Chan­nel 0, they will work togeth­er regard­less of pairing.
  • On this chan­nel, a T4 will also respond to T2•R, T3, and T3•R remotes.
  • When you fact­ory reset a T4, it reverts to Chan­nel 0, but the remote keeps its chan­nel set­ting. Because Chan­nel 0 is uni­ver­sal, they’ll still work together.

Chan­nels 1 – 9

Chan­nel 1 is used by the T2•R, T3, and T3•R. If you pair your T4 on Chan­nel 1, it will respond to those older remotes, and your T4 remote will con­trol those older boxes.

If you’re using older Man­hat­tan devices in the same room as your T4, pair your T4 on chan­nels 2 – 9 to avoid interference.
