How to Pair the Remote on the G-700
(Siemens and Inovance Versions)
⚠️ Important Disclaimer
Before beginning any steps that involve accessing internal components or wiring, unplug the machine from the power source to avoid risk of electric shock or equipment damage. This guide is provided for informational purposes only. Always follow manufacturer safety instructions, and if you're uncertain, contact technical support before proceeding.
Step 1: Identify Which Version of G-700 You Have
There are two main versions of the G-700, based on the inverter and screen type:
✅ Siemens Version
Front Screen / BOP: Labeled "Siemens"
Inverter inside the electrical box: Siemens Sinamics V20
Receiver Location:
Early units: Inside the electrical box
Later units: Mounted on the left side of the electrical box behind the side panel
✅ Inovance Version
Front Screen / BOP: Not labeled Siemens
Inverter: Inovance
Receiver Location: Always mounted outside on the left side of the electrical box behind the side panel
Pairing the Remote – Siemens Version Only (24V)
Tools Required:
Wrench for turning the power switch stem
Screwdriver for panel removal
Safety First:
Unplug the G-700 from the power source.
Remove the rear panel enclosing the main power switch.
Turn the main power switch to OFF to remove the switch cover. (The cover cannot be removed if the switch is ON.)
Remove the switch cover.
Use a wrench to turn the switch stem back to ON (required to power the receiver).
Plug the machine back in.
Pair the Remote:
Access the receiver (inside or on the left side, depending on the version).
Press the small ‘KEY’ button on the receiver board.
The light on the receiver will go dark.
Immediately press the ‘ON’ button on the remote and the LED should start flashing as it pairs. Press 'ON' again to start. If the machine does not start, press the 'OFF' button first and then press 'ON' and you should see the receiver's relay LED switching back and forth from the 'OFF' relay position to the 'ON' position.
On the Siemens screen, make sure the “Hand” symbol is not displayed.
If you see the Hand symbol, the unit is in manual mode.
Press the Hand symbol to switch to remote mode.
Test the remote for Start/Stop functionality.
After Pairing – Safely Reassemble:
Unplug the machine again.
Ignore any low-voltage error codes while the inverter capacitors discharge.
Use the wrench to turn the switch stem to OFF.
Reinstall the switch cover and rear panel.
Plug the machine back in.
✅ Your Siemens G-700 remote is now paired!

The receiver light will go dark.
Immediately press the ‘ON’ button on the remote and the LED should start flashing as it pairs. Press 'ON' again to start.
