How to Reset an REVBC Wireless Receiving Controller

A practical guide to resetting an REVBC wireless receiving controller safely, including the button sequence and what happens to existing switch pairings.

What this guide covers

This guide shows how to reset an REVBC wireless receiving controller. A reset removes every existing switch pairing, so it is worth treating it as a clean start rather than a casual troubleshooting step.

Before you start

  • Confirm that a full reset is necessary, as all previous pairings will be erased.
  • Make a note of the switches that will need to be paired again afterwards.
  • Keep the controller accessible and refer to its data sheet if the installation differs from the example shown.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Press and hold the button on the controller as demonstrated in the video.
  2. Keep the button held down until the red LED goes out completely.
  3. Continue holding the button for another second or two to make sure the reset has completed.
  4. Release the button, then pair and test each required wireless switch again.

Useful tips

  • Do not release the controller button as soon as the LED changes; wait until it has gone out completely.
  • Allow the extra second or two after the LED goes out. It is a small detail, but it helps avoid an incomplete reset.
  • Test every required switch after re-pairing before leaving the controller.

Troubleshooting

If the red LED does not go out, do not assume the reset has completed. Repeat the procedure in accordance with the controller data sheet. If the controller still will not reset or re-pair, contact REVBC technical support with the controller model number.
