# How do I pair my PondMAX color changing remote?

## Pairing the PondMAX remote to the RF controller is simple.

Begin with the lighting system all set up, connected to the controller and the controller connected to the transformer.  Then with the transformer unplugged from the wall, simply press the red power button on the remote and hold it.  While you are holding the power button plug the transformer into the wall and hold the button for 3 more seconds.   The lights will flash a few times and your remote should now be synchronized with the controller.
