Before you begin the steps to setup the canopy sequencer, first manually rotate the canopy lock units to the full un-lock position. This is the position in which the lock unit hooks are completly backed away from the canopy hook slots.

1. Select a switch, dial or lever to use for the canopy system. Be sure the transmitter ATV's are at 100% in each direction (you may have to adjust the transmitter ATV slightly depending on radio equipment to allow the sequencer to recognize the inputs for open and close). Once this is completed, move the switch to where you want the canopy "open" side of the switch to be. Turn on the receiver. If the sequencer programming light is "green" for a moment and then flashes slowly "red", proceed to the next step. If the light is solid "red", reverse the channel direction by going into the transmitter screen menus and select the opposite direction for the channel you are using for the canopy system. Once the channel is reversed from it's current state, the sequencer programming light will turn "green" for a moment, then flash slowly "red". Proceed to the next step.

2. With the transmitter switch still in the canopy open direction, the red sequencer light blinking slowly, press and release sw1 on the canopy sequencer. The red light should go out and the green programming light should come on briefly, then go out. This stores the canopy open position in memory.

3. The red light on the sequencer will now be blinking faster. Move the transmitter canopy switch to the canopy closed position, press and release sw2 on the sequencer. Once again the red light will go out, the green light will come on briefly and then go out. This stores the canopy closed position in memory. The red light will once again be blinking slowly.

1. After completing the above step, the red light will change from blinking to steady on. You may now adjust the first lock servo ATV. Turn the ATV pot one direction or the other until the servo moves the locking unit to the full un-locked position. Once this is done, press and release sw1. The red light will go out and the green light will come on briefly. This stores the lock1 open ATV position in memory. The red light will once again be on steady. Repeat this step exactly for lock2.

1. The light on the sequencer will once again be steady on. Turn the ATV pot to lift the rear edge of the canopy to the maximum the two slot in the canopy lift unit will allow, without the canopy shifting from side to side. Once done, press and release sw1. The red light will go green for a moment and then back to solid red. This sets the canopy rear lift open position in memory.

The red light on the sequencer will be once again steady on, rotate the ATV pot to set the maximum (open) position for the canopy. It's a good idea to also have the servo arm pointing directly at the canopy servo attach point to prevent the canopy from closing if you wish to display the canopy open with the receiver power off. Since most servos are coreless, they have no holding power when not powered up and the canopy will simply sag closed once the RX power is turned off. Once the canopy full open point is established thru this step, remove the servo arm and re-install it with the arm pointing directly at the attachment point on the canopy. The servo will hold while you complete this operation. Re-adjust the pot slightly if necessary to acheive a direct over-center for the arm, then press sw1 on the sequencer to set the canopy open ATV into memory. The green light will come on again briefly, then go back to solid red.

1. Once the light is once again solid red, rotate the ATV pot to close the canopy. You may have to adjust the two slots in the canopy flange to get the canopy to close within a 1/16th inch of fully closed. Once this has been completed, press and release sw2 on the sequencer. The green light will come on again briefly then go back to solid red.

1. rotate the ATV pot to fully close the rear lift on the canopy. The canopy should now settle into the front lock slots and be nearly flush with the canopy flange of the fuse. Press and release sw2 to set the lift closed ATV. The green light will once again come on briefly and then go back to solid red.

1. rotate the ATV pot to set lock1. Rotate the pot until the servo can be heard buzzing slightly and the canopy on lock1 side is firmly pulled down by the locking hook. Back off the setting just slightly until the buzzing stops. Be sure the canopy is still pulled down firmly. Press and release sw2 to set the lock point for lock1. The green light will come on briefly and go back to solid red. Repeat this step for lock2.

Once you have set the ATV for lock2 and pressed sw2, the sequencer will cycle the green light 4X to indicate that programming has been completed.

Once the light has gone to solid green, flip the canopy switch on the transmitter to the "Open" position. The locks will disengage and the lift will rise and then the canopy will open.

Flip the canopy switch on the transmitter to the "Closed" position. Once the canopy has closed and the rear lift has lowered, wait approx 3 seconds and then press and release sw1. You will hear the locks engage. This sets the timing for the lock sequence and completes the installation.
