Homeworks HR-REP-120 Installation Instructions

Installation Instructions

Please Read Before Installing
Overview
HomeWorks Hybrid Repeaters add RF capability to
HomeWorks P5 processors configured with a Hybrid
Repeater Link and provide an additional coverage
area for radio frequency (RF) signals sent between
HomeWorks RF Dimmers/Switches, RF Shades, RF
Keypads, and RF Processors. Each repeater covers a
sphere of approximately 2500 square feet (232 m
living space. Up to five (5) repeating devices may be
placed in a HomeWorks RF system (a HomeWorks
RF Processor counts as one of the repeating devices).
Important Notes
Codes: Install in accordance with all local and
national electrical codes.
Power: The Hybrid Repeater can be powered from
EITHER of two sources:
1. Adapter power. Use only the adapter
provided with the Hybrid Repeater (Lutron
model # T120-9DC-3-WH).
Caution - Using an adapter not rated at the
following specifications could damage the
repeater and possibly overheat the adapter.
• Input: 120 V
• Output: 9 V

2. Link power. Use only power supplied via a
HomeWorks Processor Hybrid Repeater
Link (8 Series
TM
only) or a HomeWorks auxiliary power
supply. (See section about the HWI-PS in
the HomeWorks Technical Reference
Guide or Application Note HW-104.) Each
Hybrid Repeater counts as 15 LEDs.
Note: An RF Processor does not supply
power on the Hybrid Repeater Link.
Environment: Ambient operating temperature:
32-104 °F (0-40 °C), 0-90% humidity, non-condensing.
Indoor use only.
Hybrid Repeater Wiring: Hybrid Repeater Link wiring
must be in a daisy chain configuration. The total
length of any single wire run on the Hybrid Repeater
Link may be up to 1000 feet (305 m). The Hybrid
Repeater Link (all wire runs) may contain up to five (5)
Hybrid Repeaters total. Refer to Hybrid Repeater Link
(Wired) Communications (page 3).

Cleaning: To clean, wipe with a clean damp cloth. DO
NOT use any chemical cleaning solutions.
Device Placement: HomeWorks Hybrid Repeaters
must be located within 30 feet (9 m) of the RF
Dimmers, Switches, Shades, and Keypads they are
covering. Hybrid Repeaters must also be within 60
feet (18 m) of an RF Processor or another repeater
when using the RF Link for repeater-to-repeater or
repeater-to-processor communication. When using the
Wired Link for repeater-to-repeater or repeater-to-
processor communication, a total wire length of 1000
feet (305 m) may be used.
