D-67
1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Linear’s single-channel standard digital receivers are used in wireless security systems and for various 
remote control applications. The receiver is typically connected to inputs of a hardwired alarm control 
panel, providing wireless remote capability. 
Five models of the single-channel receiver are available.
Model D-67: Standard receiver, the output triggers for a minimum of four seconds when activated 
and will stay triggered as long as the transmitter is activated.
Model D-67L: Latching receiver, the output latches when activated until reset manually. 
Model D-67F: Toggling receiver, the output alternately latches and unlatches when activated. 
Model DX-12: Shielded receiver in a metal case with an external antenna input for connection to a 
Model EXA-1000 or EXA-2000 remote antenna, output triggers as long as the transmitter is activated. 
To set a security code, standard digital receivers contain an eight-position coding switch. The switch 
can be set to one of 256 possible unique codes. Standard digital transmitters also contain a coding 
switch. Each single-channel transmitter used with the receiver must be set to the exact same security 
code. The receiver will only activate from transmitters set with a matching code. Multi-channel standard 
digital transmitters require setting some of the receiver code switches to pre-defi ned settings to select 
the activation channel. Refer to the instructions included with multi-channel transmitters for coding 
requirements. 
For power, the D-67 & DX-12 receivers require 11-24 VDC or 12-16 VAC. The D-67L & D-67F receivers 
require 11-14 VDC or 12 VAC. Current consumption for all models is 15 mA during standby and 40 mA 
when the relay is energized. 
Each receiver’s relay output provides normally open and normally closed (Form “C”), with dry contacts 
(isolated from the power supply) rated at 1 Amp @ 32V AC/DC maximum, NEC Class 2 circuit. 
The operating temperature range of these receivers is -4° to +140° F (-20° to +60° C).

1. APPLY POWER TO THE RECEIVER. BE SURE THE ALARM 
CONTROL PANEL IS DISARMED OR IN A TEST MODE.
2. TRIGGER EACH TRANSMITTER CODED TO THE RECEIVER. THE 
RECEIVER RELAY SHOULD CLICK. VERIFY THAT THE PROPER 
ALARM CONTROL PANEL LOOP IS VIOLATED WHEN THE 
RECEIVER ACTIVATES.
IF THE RECEIVER FAILS TO ACTIVATE, CHECK THE CODE 
SWITCH SETTINGS AND VERIFY THAT RECEIVER HAS POWER.
3. WITH PORTABLE TRANSMITTERS, OPERATE THEM FROM 
VARIOUS LOCATIONS TO DETERMINE THE USABLE RADIO 
RANGE OF THE SYSTEM. THIS WILL HELP TO LOCATE POSSIBLE 
TROUBLE AREAS WHERE METAL OR OTHER MATERIALS MAY 
SHIELD THE RECEIVER FROM THE TRANSMITTER.
IMPORTANT: ELECTRONIC PRODUCTS ARE 
NO BETTER THAN THE INSPECTION AND 
MAINTENANCE THEY RECEIVE OVER TIME. 
THEREFORE, INSTALLERS SHOULD 
INSTRUCT THEIR CUSTOMERS TO TEST 
THIS EQUIPMENT REGULARY, AT LEAST 
ONCE A WEEK.

Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fi ll an important need in portable 
wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.
✶ For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as 
Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
✶ A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by 
radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
IMPORTANT !!!
✶ Changes or modifi cations to the device may void FCC compliance.
✶ Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.
✶ A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale 
distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
