Introduction Thank you for choosing Remote Control Technology’s Short Range Wireless Switch System 1 (SRWSS 1). This versatile device has numerous practical applications and will surely become a mainstay in your business and production structure. This guide will show you how to install and customize your system to meet your needs.
Receiver Installation 1. Connect one side of the device to be switched to the common (COM) contact of the terminal block. The other side is connected to the normally open (NO) contact or the normally closed (NC) contact. 2. Attach the antenna to the antenna mount assembly. The lightning arrestor is shipped connected to the antenna mount.
Transmitter Installation 1. Connect a dry contact closure such as a switch to the terminal block. 2. Attach the antenna to the antenna mount assembly. The lightning arrestor is shipped connected to the antenna mount. Do not disassemble the antenna mount or the lightning arrestor.
Programming The SRWSS 1 receiver and transmitter are shipped pre-programmed to communicate with each other, which allows them to be installed and used as soon as they have been received. However, there are situations where it may be necessary to reprogram the system which are generally limited to the addition of more receivers or transmitters to an existing system.
Multi-transmitter Programming A SRWSS 1 receiver can be controlled by multiple transmitters. Configuring the receiver to accept commands from multiple transmitters is useful for applications such as alarms where multiple transmitters connected to sensor devices can send signals to a single receiver that is connected to an alarm system. To program multiple transmitters to control one receiver: 1.
Operation The Short Range Wireless Switch System 1 (SRWSS 1) 1-Watt system is suitable for applications where shorter ranges (up to ½ mile) and simple wireless switching are needed. Operation is simple; connect a switch, relay, or any other device with a dry contact closure to the transmitter input.
Table 1. Continued DIP Switch Position Receiver Operation Mode On-Off: On-Off mode requires a two-input transmitter. Push-button "1" changes the state of the output. Push-button "2" returns the output to it's original state. Test: In test mode, the output will change its state and maintain it until position 4 on the DIP switch is in the off position.
Optimizing Your Wireless Switch System Following these guidelines will help you maximize the range your signal: • Supply the antennas for the receiver and the transmitter with a good ground plane. To do this, apply a 10 AWG or larger wire from the lightning arrestor to an earth ground or mount the antenna to a metal pole or conduit connected to an earth ground.
