Pairing the DEYA R6-1 Remote with the DEYA V1 Controller: How to Connect and Remove It

The DEYA R6-1 LED dimmer remote is used to control the brightness of one lighting channel through the DEYA 5–36VDC, 8A*1CH, PUSH-DIM (V1) controller. If the remote stops working, you can pair it again or remove the old pairing.

Short answer: to connect the remote, you need to power the controller, press the MATCH button on the controller, and hold it for a few seconds. If you want to remove the remote, reset the controller to pairing mode and then pair a new remote.

What remote pairing means

Pairing the remote is simply a way to tell the controller: “this remote will control the lighting.” To do that, you press the MATCH button on the controller.

For the DEYA R6-1 remote and the V1 controller, this is very simple if you follow the steps in order.

What you need

  • DEYA 5–36VDC, 8A*1CH, PUSH-DIM (V1) controller;
  • DEYA R6-1 remote;
  • a power supply with the correct voltage;
  • an LED strip or load connected to the controller;
  • access to the MATCH button on the controller.

Before you start, make sure the controller is connected to power and that the LED strip is connected correctly. If something is connected incorrectly, the remote will not work even after pairing.

How to pair the DEYA R6-1 remote with the V1 controller

  1. Connect the controller to the power supply and turn the power on.
  2. Connect the LED strip or other load to the controller.
  3. Make sure the controller is working and not blinking.
  4. Press and hold the MATCH button on the controller for a few seconds.
  5. After that, try changing the brightness or turning the lighting on and off with the remote.

If the remote does not respond, repeat the steps again. In many cases, this helps.

How to remove or reset the remote pairing

If you need to remove an old remote or connect a new one, do this:

  1. Turn off the controller’s power.
  2. Turn it on again.
  3. Hold the MATCH button on the controller for about 5–10 seconds.
  4. After that, the controller will clear the previous pairing.
  5. You can then pair a new remote.

This is useful if the old remote stopped working or you want to connect a different one.

How to remove the remote without replacing the controller

Sometimes you only need to remove the remote from the system without changing the controller. In that case, it is enough to:

  • turn off the power;
  • after turning it back on, activate the pairing reset mode;
  • then connect a new remote or not use a remote at all.

If you have two remotes, after resetting the pairing the controller will respond only to the one you pair next.

Common reasons the remote will not pair

  • the controller is not receiving power;
  • the remote is discharged or faulty;
  • the power supply voltage does not match;
  • there is an error in the LED load connection;
  • the remote is already paired to another controller;
  • the pairing button was not held long enough.

FAQ

Can I connect another remote to the V1 controller?
Yes, but it is better to clear the old pairing first and then perform a new one.

What should I do if the remote does not respond after pairing?
Check the power, batteries, controller connection, and repeat the process again.

Can I remove the remote without losing controller functions?
Yes. Removing the remote does not damage the controller; it only removes the pairing.

Conclusion

Pairing the DEYA R6-1 remote with the DEYA V1 controller is a fairly simple process. If the remote stops working or you need to connect a new one, it is enough to reset the old pairing and pair the remote again. This lets you quickly restore control of your lighting without replacing the controller.

If you want, simply repeat these steps once more — and in most cases the remote will start working without any extra actions.
