I would do a conventional reset as GGG mentioned 1 W 5B in rapid succession and if works you will get 2 whistle toots, if you do not hear 2 whistle toots it did not RESET!! it must be dine in 1/2 second intervals you may have to practice to get it right but should work ok!

Good luck Alan

Alan, thanks for your response. As you may now have seen in my response to GGG, have (now and previously) tried the reset with both units. The doodlebug does get the message -- it gives the two whistle toots -- but keeps on sitting there in neutral anyway. Same when I try lock/unlock direction sequence.

As for the SW-1, I can only assume I'm sending the reset correctly there too, since it doesn't give me any auditory feedback. The sound stays off.

Probably saying this brands me as old and cranky, but for my money they could have put in a one or two less features and a little more robustness.
