Unboxing

The battery monitor makes it possible to check whether the supply voltage is below a certain level.

BLE Mode
The standard BLE Battery Service exposes the Battery State and Battery Level of a battery in a device. The Battery Level characteristic can beread using the GATT Read Characteristic Value sub-procedure and returns the current battery voltage level as a percentage from 0% to 100%; 0% represents a battery that is discharged to the point that operation is not guaranteed anymore; 100% represents a battery that is fully charged. The RCU should always update the battery value in the Battery Service. The Host can request readings of this characteristic whenever it desires. The RCU will notify the STB on the battery level every time that the level lowers at least 1%.

IR Mode
In IR mode (STB-IR mode) or in TV Device mode, the RCU will send an extra IR transmission upon key release, if the battery level is below 2.2 V (≈15%).

The RCU is prepared to receive upgrades whenever it is deemed necessary, using the T4H BLEOAD Protocol. The RCU firmware can be upgraded for example, to modify the User Interface. Bug corrections can also be resolved via firmware upgrades. The RCU will also be able to update the Universal IR Database it contains, via OAD.

The Setup mode is a sub-mode of the Use mode and allows the user to configure the userdefined settings for the RCU. In the Setup mode, some keys may be temporarily disabled in the user interface. Disabled keys do not trigger any action and will not create an error situation. Other keys may have to be pressed for a minimum time duration. The Key Stuck feature is enabled during Setup, unless stated otherwise.

Setup Timeout
The Setup feature has a timeout of 60 seconds; if no activity is detected during this time, the RCU aborts the Setupstate and returns to Sleep mode. The visual LED of the device being setup, will execute the Error Blink and remain off, indicating that the Setup state has terminated unsuccessfully.

Forced Pairing
The RCU can be forced to allow pairing with another STB, even if it is already paired. If the RCU is already paired and a new pair is successful, it will simply replace the old bonding information stored in the pairing table with the new. Forced Pairing can be initiated by applying the following procedure:

1. Simultaneously press and hold the VOLUME DOWN key (key #29) and the CHANNEL DOWN key (key #31), for at least 3 seconds.

2. The MIC LED (green) will turn on. Release the keys.

3. The MIC LED will execute the Pairing Blink during the pairing process.

4. 200ms after key release, the RCU transmits 3 IR frames of the PLEASE_PAIR command.

5. The RCU shall start transmitting Indirect Advertising packets.

6. If the RCU pairs successfully: The new STB pairing information will be stored in the pairing table, overwriting any previous STB’s pairing information. The STB Device LED will execute a Success Blink to indicate that pairing was successful. The RCU will change to Idle mode.

7. The RCU shall timeout after 60 seconds of advertising, if pairing with the new STB fails: It shall maintain the previously paired STB information in the pairing table. The STB Device LED will execute an Error Blink. The RCU will change to Sleep mode.

Unpairing
The device pairing information can be removed from the RCU’s memory. All other information remains unchanged. To unpair a device from the Remote, execute the following steps:

1. Simultaneously press and hold the OK key (key #20) and the CHANNEL DOWN key (key #31), for at least 3 seconds.

2. The MIC LED (green) will turn on. Release the keys.

3. After 3 seconds the MIC LED will turn on.

4. After the MIC LED turns on, release the keys.

5. The RCU will remove the pairing information from its memory. The MIC LED will give a Success Blink. The RCU will now transmit IR to control the ASTB.

6. If the RCU is not able to delete the pairing information, an Error Blink will be executed.

7. The RCU returns to Sleep mode.

Factory Reset
At any moment, the RCU Factory Settings can be restored to the device. A Factory Reset can be executed with the Remote in STB device mode or TV device mode. To execute a Factory Reset, use the following key combination:

1. Simultaneously press and hold the BACK key (key #23) and the SETTINGS key (key #25) for at least 3 seconds.

2. After 3 seconds the Setup LED and the STB Device LED shall both turn on.

3. When the LEDs turn on, release the keys.

4. Press and release the OK key (key #20).

5. The LEDs will both execute the Success Blink to indicate that the RCU has been restored to its Factory Settings.

6. If any other key is pressed, besides the OK key, or if a setup timeout occurs, then Setupis aborted. Both the Setup LED and the STB device LED will execute an Error Blink before the RCU returns to Sleep mode. All RCU settings shall be maintained.

7. The RCU exits Setup.
