Control 4 CXM-RCR1-B Installation Manual

Wireless Contact / Relay
Extender Installation Guide
Features
The Wireless Contact/Relay Extender is intended for use as a device you
®
can control with your Control4 system. It is for the user who is looking for
ways to control contact or relay devices in areas away from the main
controller or who is simply looking for additional contacts and/or relays.
When installed, the Contact/Relay Extender is physically connected to up to
four contacts and/or four relays and communicates to the Control4 system
using either an Ethernet connection or a ZigBee (wireless) connection.
The Contact/Relay Extender is designed to sit on a standard rack shelf rather
than be mounted with traditional rack ears. Its approximate dimensions are
6.5" wide (1/2 RU) x 1.5" tall (just under 1 RU) x 7.0" deep and it comes with
a small plastic rack that enables you to store it in a vertical position.
