When this screen is open the controller is listening for any remote out there that is sending a command to the shade. Simply press any button on the remote you want to link. If you are having trouble deciding which button to press, press the up button. Once the remote is detected it will automatically close the link remote window as soon as it hears the remote.

To unlink an external remote from the shade simply click on the trash can icon from the linked remotes list.
## Setting a Rolling Code
You may set the rolling code for a shade registered in ESPSomfy RTS. However, I caution you on using this feature and I hesitated to add it. If these get out of sync you will need to reset the memory on the motor. This is because each command sent to the motor increments the rolling code value stored on the motor by 1. If it does not match the expected value by a small window then the motor will not respond to the command and is part of the security features of the motor. Still if you are interested in what that number is you can click on the `Set Rolling Code` button just to see it but heed the warnings on the page. Really, I've got your back here.

# Backup and Restore
You may back up your shade settings at any time using the backup function. To back up your shade settings, from the gears menu, select the `Updates` tab. From this tab simply click on the backup button and a text file containing the current shade configuration will be downloaded to your browser. You may use this file should you need to replace your ESP32 or simply want to use another device.
To restore the settings you can simply upload a valid backup file to the device using the `Restore` button. But beware, this will overwrite all the shade settings on the device. During the upload process, ESPSomfy RTS will maintain the current rolling code if it is greater than the rolling code stored in the file.
