GENERAL INFORMATION The RD-10 is a single function remote control and alarm, with status monitor for placement in the field. It has ten open collector outputs that can be set for momentary, latched, or repetitive On/Off output from a manual DTMF keypad, another RD-1, RD-10 or an RC-10.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION Be certain to follow standard anti-static procedures when handling any of Midian’s products. P1-1 to P1-10: Opto-Isolated Inputs: These are the high side status inputs of the opto isolators. See Isolator Terminal statement on P1-12. P1-11: V Com-2: This is a V common for inputs 5-10 of the optional opto isolators. In the schematic you will notice that one side of each opto isolator is connected to V Common.
If the output receives another command to turn on while the actual state of the output is still on, the on time will be reset. The RD-10 can be programmed to report the actual output state as opposed to the internal output state.

The security timing is disabled when using the manual communication method to allow manual dialing from a hand held or mobile radio. The RD-10 transponds with an audible low→high (on) or high→low (off) tone sequence. All spontaneous reporting of input status, output status or alarms is disabled. However, the manual operator can query the RD-10 to transmit the output, input or alarm status.

Report Alarm Status #XXXG*4# XXX is the 0 to 3 digit base address assigned when the unit was programmed. G is the addressed I/O Group. The unit will report the status of the addressed alarm with a low→high or high→low tone sequence. For more information about alarm conditions please refer to the Help files in the Remote Programmer.

Security The RD-10 provides a secure mode of operation to eliminate false operation from spurious transmissions and helps thwart hacking attempts. The lead-in tone is timed at 200ms and the following tones are timed using a base of 50ms on time and 50ms inter-digit time.
KL-3 Instruction Manual or the Remote Programmer online help files. To connect the RD-10 to the KL-3 cable, attach the ground lead of the KL-3 to P1-20 (Ground) of the RD-10, and the programming lead of the KL-3 to P1-16 (Programming Input) of the RD-10. NOTE: Attaching the wrong leads can lead to failure of the unit.
