Can I control a Ceiling fan w/remote only

Hi Zack,
It’s been some time since I installed the fan so my memory is a bit fuzzy. I can tell you in my setup that the fan direction can only be changed from the switch directly on the fan (:frowning:). It would have been nice to automate this but having full voice control over the fan function, less direction control, is really what I was after. And, I must say, I love it. I vaguely remember a remote coming with the fan but never used it so I’m not sure if It could override the fan switch.

HTH,
Tim

…good question!

my fan has a physical switch, so I never ran into this issue. I did a quick google search and did not find a good answer of how the fan direction is reversed. It may not be as easy as just flipping the black and white wire…
