RP-1 Remote Control Processor
MOUNTING
The RP-1 can be mounted on either a shelf or a wall (see
Appendix A for mounting hole details). Since the IR output
can drive up to 1000 feet of wire, the RP-1 does not need to be
mounted near the equipment being controlled.
CONNECTING THE AC ADAPTER
The included AC adapter should be connected to the POWER
jack on the RP-1. The power (+12VDC) LED will turn-on and
the bi-color Status LED will toggle on and off three times to
confirm that the unit is running properly.
Use only the supplied AC adapter to power the RP-1. Using a
different power supply could result in poor performance or
damage to the RP-1.
CONNECTING IR EMITTERS TO THE SIGNAL OUTPUT
The RP-1 is compatible with industry standard IR connecting
blocks. Connect the SIGNAL and GROUND terminals to the
signal input and ground terminals on the connecting block.
The connecting block can be wired up to 1000 feet away from
the RP-1 using #22 AWG (minimum) wire. The RP-1 can drive
up to ten IR mini-emitters directly. More than ten emitters
requires an amplified connecting block.
This output has short circuit protection, but does not provide
a series resistor for current limiting. It should not be
connected directly to IR emitters.
CONNECTING THE SENSE INPUT
The SENSE input is a DC voltage level sensor that uses a fixed
threshold to determine if the connected device is on or off.
