INSTALLATION

POWER CONNECTIONS:

OUTPUT CONNECTIONS:

EXTERNAL SWITCH:

1. Warning, shock hazard: To service the load, disconnect main power. Do not use the
manual ON/OFF override switch to disconnect load for service.

2. Make 240V (operational from 208-277V) power connection as follows:

a) Connect the power supply neutral wire to the BLACK wire marked L1 on the
board.

b) Connect the line wire to the RED wire marked L2 on the board.

c) Relay loads do not need to be connected to check operation of RB204

1. Connect the load to the GREY wire (normally open), or the BLUE wire (normally closed)
lead, and the VIOLET wire (common) lead.

2. See the "Relay Output" section in the specifications for maximum current and voltage
ratings.

1. Connect a switch to the removable terminal block P3. The switch may be any dry-contact
switch or relay. When the contact is closed the output relay will remain energized. When
the switch is opened the relay will default back to the last PCC command received.

2 The External Switch is only operational while the ON/OFF/AUTO switch is in the "AUTO”

position.

3. The External Switch is not required for proper operation of the unit - only use if this
feature is desired.

PROGRAMMING: (Restore the Power)

1. Upon power-up the RB204 will be in RUN mode. This will be indicated by the red STA­TUS LED blinking for 1/2 second every 3 seconds.

2. Program 1 Mode:

a) Setting the address: Hold in the PROGRAM push-button for approximately 3 sec-

onds. After this 3 second period release the button and make sure the STATUS LED
is on steadily. This indicates the RB204 is in the PROGRAM 1 mode.

b) Using a separate transmitter, transmit the desired letter and number code twice in

succession.

- When the RB204 accepts 2 identical letter and number codes it will blink the
STATUS LED 2 times. The RB204 is now set to that address and will default to
polite.

- To disable polite mode, send 2 additional letter/number codes. The LED will blink
4 times. To enable polite mode again, simply program another address.

- If no code is received, or if two different letter and number codes are received, then
the STATUS LED will continue to be on steady and the RB204 will remain with the
last programmed letter and number code.

c) Setting "Rude" Mode: If the address is pressed 2 more times (total of 4) then the

unit will be set to "Rude Mode", ie. No collision detection. The LED will flash 4 times
to acknowledge "Rude Mode". To return to "Polite" Program 1 Mode must be repro­grammed.

d) The RB204 may also be programmed to respond to “ALL LIGHTS ON” , ALL LIGHTS

OFF" and “ALL UNITS OFF” commands. To enable each command, transmit the
command twice in succession. The STATUS LED will blink 6, 10, or 8 times respec­tively if it receives any command twice. All 3 of these commands can be enabled at
the same time, but must be programmed one at a time. To disable all the commands,
exit and reenter program mode and program the RB204 for a different letter and
number code.

e) The user may exit the PROGRAM 1 mode by pressing the PROGRAM push button

once or wait for 60 seconds at which point the RB204 will return to the RUN mode,
but if "time out" is to be set, proceed to Program 2 Programming.

3. Program 2 Mode: (Setting the "time out" ON or OFF period) (Optional Feature)

a) The RB204 has the ability to automatically time-out to either ON or OFF (user select-

able). For instance, it may be desirable for the unit to always wait 2 hours following an
OFF command and then turn itself back ON. Or the user may wish that the unit wait a
certain number of hours and then always turn itself back OFF. To program this
feature: While in Run Mode, enter the PROGRAM 2 mode by pressing the PRO-
GRAM push button 3 times quickly. The button must be pressed and released 3
times within 1 second to enter this mode. The STATUS LED will blink each time the
button is pressed and then stay on continuously.

b) Using a separate transmitter, transmit ON twice (to default to ON) or OFF twice (to

default to OFF). The transmitter must be set to the same letter code as the address
was set (in Program 1 programming).

- If RB204 accepts 2 identical letter/number/ON codes it will blink the STATUS LED
7 times.

- If RB204 accepts 2 identical letter/number/OFF codes it will blink the STATUS LED
8 times.

c) After the time out default state has been programmed, the time-out period can be

programmed.

- Transmit the address letter of the unit along with any 1-16 number code twice. 1
denotes 1hour, 2 denotes 2 hours and so on.

- When the time out period has been accepted the STATUS LED will flash 1 time and
then resume to being continuously on.
