CAUTION #1: Do not open the RT-REL enclosure or attempt to perform any service on this device.
CAUTION #2: The RT-REL is designed to operate on 120 volts, 60 hertz. Operation with any voltage or frequency other than that can damage the equipment and create an unsafe situation.
CAUTION #3: The RT-REL should be installed and used with only in a manner described in this document.
CAUTION #4: Do not expose the RT-REL to moisture or salty air. Doing so could cause significant damage and create an unsafe condition.
Plug the power cord of the RT-REL into a switched AC outlet to sense the presence of 120VAC and latch a SPST, normally open relay. The relay contacts are made across a two position barrier strip on the outside of the RT-REL enclosure. This is a dry con­tact which will stay closed as long as there is current through the power cord. There should be no voltage on this terminal.
The RT-REL can be used with any product that needs a contact closure to activate, including the Juice Goose CQR-1500, RT-15 and RT-5. Other applications include activation of an amplifier or other audio or video equipment that may return to a standby mode when not active.
A common use for the RT-REL is to extend a remote control from the switched outlet on a rack mounted power strip, sequencer or some other electronic component such as an audio receiver or amplifier. For example, when plugged into the switched outlet on a Juice Goose JG Series power strip the RT-REL can be used to activate an AC power circuit in a remote location using the CQR­1500, RT-15 or RT-5.
