INSTALLATION MANUAL
C2 Relays
The C2 utilizes Cat-5 connections to devices such as garage door openers, blinds, and
gates which can be activated with 12 Volt or contact closure.
The Relay feature allows the end user to activate these devices using any touch-tone phone
in the home.
CAUTION: ALWAYS remove power to the C2 along with any other
electronics equipment prior to making any connections to or from the
C2. Set the Power Switch on the back of the C2 to the OFF
position prior to making connections.
