Title: Changing Camera Bank for CR14A
Post by: Phil45680 on July 18, 2012, 03:35:15 PM

Does anybody know if you can change the bank of cameras for the CR14A remote control? It is factory set for bank 1-4 but is it possible to set it for banks 5-8 or 9-12, etc?

If that's possible, then HOW do you program it to do that?

No. You need CR12 for that.

Thanks Dave! I have 12A's and 13A's which will do the job, just as you suggested. I didn't know but just THOUGHT that perhaps a 14A could be re-programmed. Should have known that was too good to be true. ;D

X-10 works great if you work within its limitations. Through the years of working with it, I've finally figured out how to make it work well.

Thanks again Dave!

Yes you can but the obvious place to find the information the CR14A manual doesn't cover it.  ???
It is on page 16 of the VK74A Ninja Base Manual.
To change C1-C4 to units 5-8. Set the program-normal switch to program. Push the C2 Button. Go back to normal.
To change to units 9-12. Program; C3; Normal.
To change to units 13-16. Program; C4; Normal.
