IN FR ARE D ( I R) This mechanism can be controlled via the supplied 14 button Infrared (IR) Remote Control, paired with the supplied Infrared (IR) lead and sensor. The mechanism's functions can be controlled by plugging the Infrared (IR) lead and sensor into the 3.5mm IR Input Jack shown on the General Mechanism Control page.
RADIO FREQUENCY ( R F) If purchased with the Radio Frequency (RF) control option, this mechanism can be controlled via the supplied 4 button Radio Frequency (RF) Remote Control, paired with the in-built Radio Frequency (RF) sensor. Confirmation of Radio Frequency (RF) input will be shown by a single flash of the large green LED located on the end of the control box.

C ON TA CT CLOS URE This Mechanism can be controlled via Contact Closure, utilising an 8 Pin RJ45 Connector attached to a length of CAT5 (Type 568A or 568B) cable. The mechanism’s functions can be controlled by plugging this into the RJ45 port on the mechanism control board, then shorting pins 1-8 on this connector as shown in the Contact Closure Input Table below.
Page 18
RS 23 2 CONTROL This Mechanism can be controlled via RS232, utilising a 6 Pin RJ11/RJ25 connector OR 9 Pin Serial connector attached to a length of 6 core cable. The mechanism's functions can be controlled by plugging this into the RJ11/RJ25 port on the mechanism control box, then inputting the RS232 commands shown in the RS232 Input Table below.
