Got it!
Playing at work with Gigamesh...
You put the controller on lock (straight down position)
When it's there, press the key button (bottom right button, until the spybot
beeps.
For me, I held the key button and pressed any other button (1 thru 4)
This locks the spybot to that 'channel'
When you put the switch to the run postion (to the left), the spybot will
listen to that controller.
If you put the switch back to the lock position and press any other key
besides the key button or the channel you were just on, and then switch it
back to run (to the left) the 'bot will not respond to that remote.
Works well, and you can quickly switch between 4 spybots using 1 remote this
way.
