USER’S MANUAL
RCR/KTXWxxx Remote Control System
INTRODUCTION
This product is used in miscellaneous applications requiring short-range remote control of on/off functions.
INSTRUCTION TO THE USER
FCC ID:QY4KTXW303
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions :
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This unit has been tested and found to be in comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The user is cautioned that changes and modifications made to the equipment without the approval of manufacturer could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
OPERATION
Transmission Range
The transmission range of this unit depends upon the environment of the signal path, the type of receiver used and the type of receive
antenna used. Using Applied Wireless RCR receiver and a quarter wave vertical antenna, line-of-sight range of 350 feet is normal.
By using a dipole antenna (DP300 or DPA300A) will extend the range even further. Non line-of-site applications may have
significantly shorter transmission range, depending upon the nature of the obstruction.
Addressing
For security purposes, this transmitter is programmed to one of over 16 million different addresses. The receiver must be programmed
to the same address code as the transmitter. The receiver may come programmed to your transmitter from the factory. If not, you will
need to have the receiver “learn” the transmitter ID.
To program the receiver, remove the receiver antenna (to prevent the receiver from inadvertently learning an undesired transmitter),
press and hold (for at least 5 seconds) the learn button on the receiver (until the learn LED lights), and then press and hold any button
on the transmitter until the LEARN light goes out. The transmitter must be within two to 3 feet of he receiver. When the learn button
goes out, the receiver has finished the programmi ng.
The receiver may learn up to 4 different transmitter codes. If a fifth transmitter is programmed, the first transmitter ID code that was
programmed will be deleted and replaced with the new ID. If more than 4 transmitters need to be used with the receiver, please
request the factory to set up the KTXW transmitters with the same ID codes.
Modes of Operation
Momentary, Latched or Toggle
The RCR receiver comes from the factory in the MOMENTARY mode. In this mode, the relay output is activated for only as long as
the keyfob button is pressed. The other two modes work as follows:
Latched Mode
A relay activates when its associated button on the remote is depressed, and remains active after the button is released. When a
different button (also set up for latch mode) on the remote is pressed, the currently active relay (or output) will de-activate, and the

relay corresponding to the button just pressed will activate. A typical application of buttons used in latch mode are to have separate
ON and OFF buttons.
Toggle Mode
A relay activates when its associated button on the remote is depressed, and remains active after the button is released. A subsequent
press of the same button on the remote will deactivate the relay. In this mode, each of the relays is completely independent of the
others, thus any combination of one or more relays, or no relays, may be active at any given time.
Mode Combinations
Each relay may have different modes of operation. For instance, buttons one and two may be set up as latched for an on button and
off button application, while buttons 3 and 4 may be set up as momentary. The 8 position DIP switch sets the mode for each relay as
outlined in the table.

If LATCHED operation is used, it will be necessary to specify which buttons will be used in a Latch Group. Latch groups are used so
that buttons set up as momentary or toggle don’t affect the operation of those buttons set up as latched. It also allows the setup of
multiple latched pairs, for instance if you wanted to have on and off buttons for 3 sets of equipment independently. Only one relay
within a Latch Group can be energized at any given time. Latched groups are set up using the 4-position DIP switch (see table).

• Switch 1 shall provide the selection between horizontally-related button pairs or vertically-related buttons.
o Off: horizontal pairs of buttons (and their corresponding relays) that are configured for Latched Mode shall latch
and un-latch with respect to each other. For example, if Relays 1 and 2 are set for Latched Mode (with SW2-1 and
SW2-2), and switch 1 is set to OFF, Relay 1 turns on when Button 1 is pressed (causing Relay 2, if already latched
on, to turn off). By the same logic, pressing Button 2 will activate Relay 2 (and turn Relay 1 off). All other buttons
will have no effect on the states of Relays 1 and 2 (even if those other buttons’ corresponding relays are configured
for Latched Mode).
o ON: transmitter buttons that are vertically-oriented with respect to each other cons titute a Latch Group (and their
corresponding relays that are configured for Latched Mode shall latch and un-latch with respect to each other). For
example, if Relays 1, 3, and 5 are all set for Latched Mode (with SW2-1, SW2-3, and SW2-5 respectively), and S7-1
is set to ON, Relay 1 turns on when Button 1 is pressed (causing Relay 3 or Relay 5, if either is already latched on,
to turn off). By the same logic, pressing Button 5 will activate Relay 5 (and turn off Relay 1 or Relay 3). All other
buttons will have no effect on the states of Relays 1, 3, and 5 (even if those other buttons’ corresponding relays are
configured for Latched Mode). In the example above, if Relay 3 is configured for other than Latched Mode (i.e.
Momentary or Toggle Mode, with SW2-3), Button 3 will NOT unlatch either of the other two relays in the Latch
Group, yet Buttons 1 and 5 will continue to latch and unlatch Relay 1 and Relay 5 with respect to each other.
• Switch 2 (if set to ON) enables two three-button groups to function as Latch Groups. Each three-button group is independent of
the other. The first three-button group includes Buttons 1, 2, and 3. The second three-button group includes Buttons 4, 5, and 6.
Within a three-button group, only one relay may be latched on at a time, since pressing either of the other two buttons within that
group will activate and latch the corresponding relay, and in the process un-latch whichever relay is currently latched within the
group. (NOTE: One of the relays within a three-button group may be set (with SW2) for other than Latched Mode. If so, it will
respond accordingly, either Momentary or Toggle, however it will not unlatch either of the other two relays in the group).
Whenever S7-2 is set to ON, the receiver disregards the setting of S7-1 (Horizontal/Vertical).
