Why does my CT MIDI remote light up when pressed but not start my machine?

Your CT MIDI remote can only be paired to ONE MIDI at a time. The remote needs to be "UNPAIRED" from the previous tool before it will work on another device.

To unpair, hold both buttons on the remote until the purple light shines. The remote is now "unpaired" and able to be paired to another machine. If the lights do not shine, check the battery, and replace if flat.

You can also find a video on our Festool TV called "Quick guide to the Festool Bluetooth system" that highlights information on the issue.
