Just bought two of these for my apartment but the remotes keep interfering with each outlet. Is it possible to change the frequency?

Such a legit question. I've not used more than one in a given area. Have you contacted the manufacturer?

My husband and I looked at the packaging and remote. It is NOT a multi-channel remote. So, we would guess that if you bought two of them there is a chance that they may be on the same channel and you wouldn't be able to change them.

The company says that both are possible, adding outlets or remotes. They say the added outlets or remotes can use a learning phase to all use one code. Contact the company for more details. Hope this helps. Viking

I haven't had to change mine yet. Had similar frustration with another remote and took it to Batteries Plus franchise and they figured it out. Chances are it will need a battery they sell and not available at Home Depot, etc. That's my suggestion.

There may be a problem with the remote transmitting to the receiver I had the same problem with mine. They are on two different frequencies.

I actually did this and it does work. You have to make sure that you get two units that have the same frequency. HOWEVER, you cannot use one switch to control two boxes (my original plan) -- it will alternate them on and off.

I don't have any problems with mine. The TV may draw too few electricity to keep the controlled outlets active. Try with a different appliance such as a table lamp on the main. If that fails then you may have a defective unit.

If by set you mean 1 remote wall unit and 1 transmitter for that unit than the frequency should not matter. Are you sure your remote unit is broken. Good luck Dorothy. Jerry

I believe there is no way to change the RF frequency so that each remote operates on a different frequency. Here are two things to try:1 Adjust the antenna on the powerblaster or maybe even remove it so it only operates in limited distance. Call Universal and ask for tech support 914 835-4484.

I didn't have that problem. Are you using the same remote for all 5 on the circuit? And are you using the same power source for them? That is my only suggestion. Sorry I couldn't help!

not sure if you can do that with this switch unless you find a remote that works on the same frequency

I have an old one, and it has two binary dip switches under the plate, so you can select among four frequencies. Presumably this feature exists on this model as well. By setting the different dip switches differently, the two will not interfere with each other.

it sounds like the remote was disconnecting I would try a different channel. I have never had any problems with mine

Unfortunately No! You will need to purchase another switch only. The remote control has two different frequency settings.

Hello Emma,Sorry I can't help you much here. I am not familiar with either system. I know for a fact that you cannot reprogram the device to operate on a different frequency. Go to a local store and try the remote and see if your system recognize it. Good luck!

You can't change the frequencies. I don't know if you buy two if the frequencies would be different.

Each outlet is paired with a channel on the remote, which has five channels. So the max would be five individual separate outlets. I would not expect a second set to operate on a different range of frequencies. But to be sure I would contact the manufacturer.
