1. FUNCTIONING DESCRIPTION
After connecting the supply, the diode RECEPTION lights. It indicates that the receiver is ready to operate.
With each correctly received transmission the diode fades for a moment. When it pulses, i t indicates the
incoming transmissions. If you want the retransmitter to send the received signals, you need to program
it – to enter to its memory the codes of these senders which are su pposed to be retransmitted. When
using multi-button remote controls, you need to program each button separately. We applied such
solution because in some uses it is not advisable to send signals from all the control's buttons. Each
remote control button which is entered in the retransmitter is treated as a separate sender and occupies
one slot in the memory. The memory capacity is 500 codes.
Only those signals are retransmitted which come from a sender entered to RTS 100 memory. It
cooperates with all types of senders by GE and some of the senders by other producers.
2. PROGRAMMING A NEW SENDER TO THE RETRANSMITTER'S MEMORY
To program a given sender or remote control to the retransmitter's memory:
1. press the LEARNING button shortly – the LEARNING and RECEPTION diodes will light. The
retransmitter is waiting to get the signal from the remote control
2. press the remote control button which is supposed to be entered into the retransmitter's memory.
After sending one signal from the control, the diode CORRECT CODE will light and the LEARNING diode
will start to pulse. Press the control button once more. If the transmission is correctly received, all the
diodes will light which confirms programming of the remote control.
Repeat the programming for all the buttons in the remote control and next remote controls. Programming
stationary senders is the same as the description in the manual; the only difference is that instead of
pressing the control button, activate the sender to a short emission. The applied solution of individual
programming buttons of a multi-button control allows for deciding which signals are supposed to be
amplified.
3. DELETING SENDERS FROM THE MEMORY
To delete the remote controls' codes from the retransmitter's memory, press the LEARNING button and
keep it pressed until all diodes light – then, release the LEARNING button. The diodes will light for about
3s and then will fade which confirms the deletion. IMPORTANT! Remember that the deletion concerns the
whole content of memory. If you want to delete only one or several remote controls, after the deletion
process you must re-enter to the memory those controls which are supposed to be saved. Deleting the
senders does not change the operating mode. Disconnecting the supply does not cause losing information
about the entered remote controls and the operating mode of the retransmitter.
If the retransmitter is in the the reception mode, then after receiving a correct transmission from a
programmed remote control it will react by lighting the CORRECT CODE diode and then the EMISSION
diode which confirms the receiver's work. After sending the received information, RTS moves to the
reception mode.
4. THE OPERATING MODES
You can choose the RTS 100 retransmitter's operating mode:
1. the immediate mode – after receiving a signal RTS 100 sends the received information
2. the delay mode – the transmitter starts sending with a random delay from the scope 0,2-2 s. This
mode is used in order to avoid collisions of operations of several retransmitters in the same area. RTS
100 compares every received transmission with the 3 last transmitted ones and does not allow for
repetitions and creation of a radio loop.
DELAY switch allows you to choose the sender's operating mode:
– without switch – after receiving a signal from the remote control the retransmitter starts sending
immediately
– with switch – after receiving a signal from the remote control, the retransmi tter waits for 0,2-2s and
starts sending
– the delay is set randomly for each transmission
– the delay operating mode is useful when there are several retransmitters operating on the same area
