Pulsed switching module

Quick Links

The 599-00 generates momentary (pulsed) outputs in response to an On/Off switched DC input voltage.
The pulsed outputs, 100 milliseconds in duration, are triggered during the On and Off transitions of the DC
input voltage. The 599-00 was developed primarily to provide momentary inputs for the Model 590-00
Programmable Controller when working with long term DC control voltages. It will work, however, in any
application requiring a pulsed output from a switched DC input.

INSTALLATION
Using the 599-00 to Provide Momentary Inputs for the Model 590 Programmable Controller.
The 590 Controller was designed to be used with momentary contact switches. In such applications, a
button is pressed, the 590 outputs an IR command, and the button is released. If the button is not released,
the 590 will either continue to repeat the same IR command or send no signal at all after the initial burst.
As long as one key is pressed, subsequent actions will be locked out; the other keys (inputs) will not respond.
The 599-00 overcomes this, allowing a system to respond to some change or function in an audio/video
system, triggered by automated actions.
• For example, if an A/V Receiver is turned ON manually, an IR command sequence can be made to turn
a DVD player ON and activate PLAY at the same time.

    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 599-00 PULSED SWITCHING MODULE The 599-00 generates momentary (pulsed) outputs in response to an On/Off switched DC input voltage. The pulsed outputs, 100 milliseconds in duration, are triggered during the On and Off transitions of the DC input voltage. The 599-00 was developed primarily to provide momentary inputs for the Model 590-00 Programmable Controller when working with long term DC control voltages.
  • Page 2 • When the AM/FM receiver is turned OFF manually, an IR command can also STOP the DVD player and turn it OFF. • To do this, the presence or absence of a constant ON and OFF DC voltage must be converted to momentary pulses to properly operate the Model 590.
  • Page 3 • When the chair is no longer occupied, the SPST switch opens, triggering another set of sequenced commands. These, in turn, could cause the lights to brighten, the drapes to open and the music to turn off. • Many other scenarios are possible, limited only by the imagination and needs of the installer and user. Driving a Relay There are times when you may want to drive a relay directly from the ON/OFF outputs of the 599-00 to trigger a device, such as a power amplifier, drape pulls, screen drops, etc.
  • Page 4 • The required momentary trigger pulses from the ON/OFF terminals is connected to the device's triggered input terminals. • As in Fig. 4, the two 1N4148 signal type diodes provide isolation between the ON & OFF outputs, yet combine them so that there is a momentary pulse for both the On and Off transitions. •...
