How to Pair a Replacement Key Fob to a KTI KWR Wireless Controller
Press and hold the Pair/Reset button on the KWR receiver for 3 seconds, release it, then press either Up or Down on the new fob once. Wait 2 seconds. Done. One receiver holds up to 4 fobs. Previously paired fobs stay active when you add a new one.
What You'll Need
A replacement KTI key fob matching your KWR model (KWR-005 fobs are 2-button; KWR-006/007 fobs are 4-button β they are not interchangeable), physical access to the KWR receiver to press the Pair/Reset button, and a charged fob battery (CR2032 for most models).
Pairing a New Fob β Step by Step
- Power On the Receiver
Flip the Power On/Off switch to ON. Indicator light should blink green. If solid red or off, resolve the power issue first.
- Locate the Pair/Reset Button
Small recessed button on the front face of the KWR unit, next to the antenna ports. You may need a pen or small screwdriver to press it. Do not confuse it with the Power On/Off switch on the side.
- Hold for 3 Seconds, Then Release
Press and hold the Pair/Reset button for exactly 3 seconds. The indicator light will shift to a quick-pace blink β this is pairing mode. You have about 30 seconds to complete the next step.
- Press Up or Down on the New Fob Once
Make sure the fob's ON/OFF switch is ON. Press either Up or Down once β do not hold it.
- Wait 2 Seconds and Test
The indicator light returns to normal slow blink. Test by pressing Up β the pump should activate. If not, confirm the pump itself works via the wired pendant, then repeat the pairing procedure.
Clearing Receiver Memory
| Hold Duration | What Gets Cleared | When to Use |
|---|---|---|
| 10 seconds | All paired key fobs only | Lost fob, new owner, or hit the 4-fob limit |
| 25 seconds | All key fobs AND all Bluetooth devices | Selling the trailer or phone won't re-connect |
Your phone will still show the KWR in Bluetooth history but will fail to connect. You must go into phone Settings β Bluetooth β find the KWR device β "Forget This Device" (iOS) or "Unpair" (Android) before re-pairing via the BluetoothKTI app.
Pairing via BluetoothKTI App
- Download BluetoothKTI
iOS App Store or Google Play. Grant Bluetooth, Location, and Camera permissions β all three are required for pairing.
- Tap "Pair New Device" and Scan the QR Code
QR code is on the KWR unit itself, on the back of the key fob, or on the original box.
- Enter Passcode 123456
This is the universal KTI Bluetooth passcode.
- Understand Phone/Fob Switching
Only one device controls the pump at a time. To switch from phone to fob: close the app completely. To switch from fob to phone: wait 5 seconds after the last fob button press, then open the app.
