How to change the default channel? I bought 4 of this to use in the house, but all 4 arrived with same channel D. Now one switch controls all 4 outlets.

As far as I can tell, there is no way to change the channel. From disassembling the transmitter, the channel is set by components soldered into the circuit board. To change it, you'd need to disassemble both the transmitter and receiver, unsolder some parts, replace them with ones for the other channel, and put everything back together - so that's a non-starter, even for me. The channel is indicated in the package, so if you buy from a brick-and-mortar store, you can choose your channels to suit your need. As far as I know, amazon doesn't let you choose which channels you get.

I couldn't tell you what is wrong. Both of mine worked fine. Did you try taking one out and trying the other by itself by changing between channels. Did you check the batteries in it, change them just to see. Also reading through the feedback of others says that some people received a set where 1 worked and the other did not. If this is the case, I would contact the seller and tell them the problem. Nobody likes bad comments and you might get lucky and get a new one. Hope this helps.

Hi, I'm not the seller of the product but I did purchase the unit awhile back and can answer the portion of the question I know the answer for. The paperwork that came with the unit stated it was available in three different frequency channels so multiple units can be used in the same location to control different devices. As for being able to choose the specific channel, I am unsure if that is an option. I know when I ordered mine through Amazon, it did not give me that option but maybe by contacting the seller before it ships. One point I wanted to make you aware of, to help you avoid any potential issues like I encountered, and that is to save the original packaging for at least a couple/few weeks. I had one of these units years ago and it worked perfectly for many years however, I wasn't so lucky on the unit I ordered a few months ago. I plugged the item in and it worked fine so not expecting any issues I went ahead and threw out all of the packaging. The item worked fine for a couple of days, maybe a total of 3x switching on/off, but stopped working after that. I've tried batteries and all troubleshooting steps in the instructions but it no longer works and I was unable to return w/o the packaging. Anyway, just wanted to let you know my experience which I assume or at least hope that is not a typical matter, especially since my prior unit worked so well for many years. Hope this helps. Best Regards

I couldn't find any way to specify channel while ordering online, if there's a certain orange home improvement store near you then you can pick these up there, and choose what channel you get. They're by the surge protectors and extension cords, red packaging.

The one I purchased worked fine and I had sound. you just had to get up and push the button to change the channel if you will between the different devices. Sounds like you could have a faulty adapter.

It mostly stays on the same channel. At times, if I'm trying to change to channel 209 for example, it would only ready one of the numbers and change to channel 2 or 9 instead. After multiple times trying, it usually works. But there are times where the effort is not really worth it.

yep right out of the box, select a clear channel and go. we deployed about 40-50 of this exact model just this way at work utilizing 3 different channels

there is 1 outlet that controls 4 other switched outlets, there are 2 other constant-always on power outlets.

I believe that you can select a different channel for each of them to operate on. In the description for both it says they are "command one programmable".

I don't know but I have never had this problem. I think you can change then channel on the remote. Check the instructions.

Mine CH 18, and need more for different channels. How do I instruct AMAZON, or whomever necessary thru them, to send me different frequencies, so have units operate separately ? I bought 1st unit to test, and works great, but need others on different channels.

I have not experienced that, but all of these devices have a "code switch" where you can set the code used by the Remote and the Outlet Box. Just set both the Remote and the Outlet box to the "same" code - of your choice. Any combination of the switches will work, just set both the Remote and the Outlet Box to the "same" code.

You have to pinch the cue boton Of the Channel you want to hear, also the cue knob in the upper left has to be all turned to the left in the cue possition, then for example if you Want to mix channels 1 and 3 you presa the 1 and 3 cue botons AT THE SAME TIME, hope it works for you (sorry the english im from México)

Let's try to answer this question in terms of what you expect the Belkin Outlet to do after you have installed it. If you want the 3 top outlets to be switched and the bottom 3 to be unswitched, nope, it won't do that. If you existing that top receptacle is switched, then after install, all 6 outlets will be switched. If your existing top receptacle is unswitched, then all your outlets will be unswitched after install. Hoping this little descript answers your question.

hi! i dont' want to presume that you are new but if you are, welcome to the hobby! its addictive.I suspect I know what the problem is. The receiver (where you put your binding pin) has a series of switches where you can select 1, 2 or three. If those are misadjusted that could cause the problem you are describing. Please tell me what transmitter you are using and send me a picture of the receiver switches martinjberger@gmail.com

No problem. Simply turn all units into the same channel (i.e. same frequency).
