Section 1

General Description

The CP/RX is a sophisticated radio control receiver and
timing module. This single device provides 3 selectable
frequencies: High Definition Radio Control™ (HDRC™),
300 MHz and 390 MHz via a three-position slide switch.

High Definition Radio Control™ is the latest breakthrough
in radio frequency (RF) signal transmission. Unlike
conventional RF systems, HDRC™ transmitters use
sophisticated componentry to transmit a fixed frequency
signal that does not distort due to outside interference.
This fixed signal is then transmitted through a proprietary
"electronic filter" in the CP/RX ensuring door activation
occurs. For added versatility, the CP/RX includes the two
most widely used conventional frequencies, 300 MHz
and 390 MHz. A simple slide switch allows the CP/RX to
be used interchangeably with all past MS SEDCO
products and other manufacturer's products utilizing
these frequencies.

In addition to the selectable frequencies, the CP/RX can
be easily programmed to not only open automatic doors,
but to also directly control the release of electric locking
devices or sequence electric locking devices and
automatic doors. The CP/RX can also be programmed so
that upon receiving an initial signal, the relay remains
closed until a second signal is received (ratchet relay).

ATTENTION: The antenna wire on the receiver
must be exposed outside the operator housing.

!

Drill a small hole in the housing and expose as
much of the antenna wire as possible.

ATTENTION: Door operator motors and controls
may cause radio frequency interference (RFI)

!

that could impair the performance of a radio
control device. For best results, locate the
receiver away from the motor and connect the
receiver to a clean power source via a 12-24V
transformer (AC or DC).

Select Operating Mode: Refer to the pages listed below
for the detailed installation instructions for your desired
operating mode.

3. 390 MHz: Compatible with MS SEDCO and GENIE™
products

Selectable Modes: via dip switches

1. Standard Receiver (factory setting)

2. Receiver with adjustable time delay (5, 10, 15 & 20
seconds)

3. Dual Receiver*

4. Receiver with two sequenced outputs* (lock release
& door activation)

5. Receiver with ratchet relay**

* Modes 3 & 4 require the RXM add on module that
can be purchased separately or order CP/RXM for
receiver with RXM installed.
** Mode 5 requires the RXR add-on module that can
be purchased separately or order CP/RXR for
receiver with RXR installed.

Section 2

Basic Installation

The physical placement of the CP/RX is typically in the
door operator housing area since the power supply and
operator control are already in this location, however,
optimum performance is achieved with the unit located
outside the door operator housing.

Section 4

Troubleshooting

When installing the ClearPath line of radio controlled
products it may be necessary to troubleshoot the system.
If your system is not working properly here is a basic
method to troubleshoot the products.

1. When the push plate is actuated, does the
transmitter show a red LED? [Note: You will need to
view the switch/surface box assembly from the back
(i.e. hold it so that the switch is facing away from you)
in order to see the LED.]

• If yes, proceed to step 2.

• If no, check the battery and make sure the push

plate is connected to the transmitter properly. Also
check battery wires to ensure neither is damaged.
If the transmitter continues to fail in showing the
red LED, contact MS Sedco to inquire about
repairing or replacing the transmitter.

2. Are the 12 dip switches and frequency selection

switch matched between the transmitter and
receiver?

• If yes, proceed to step 3.

• If no, set the dip switches or frequency selection

switch to match between the transmitter and
receiver.

be blocking the signal where the transmitter is
normally mounted, or you may be experiencing
interference.

• Try activating the receiver with a different

transmitter. If the receiver sees a signal from a
different transmitter, there is a possibility that the
original transmitter has a problem. If this occurs,
contact MS Sedco about repairing or replacing the
original transmitter.

• Ensure that the receiver antenna is exposed from

the header box as much as possible. If necessary,
drill a small hole in the header box and pull the
antenna through. Please do not cut or lengthen the
antenna wire.

• If the receiver is not responding to the signal from

any transmitter, regardless of distance or
frequency, it is possible the receiver may need
repair. Try a different receiver if this is possible.
Contact MS Sedco if receiver needs to be repaired
or replaced.

7. If receiver and transmitter are functioning correctly

but door control is not activating, ensure that the
output of the receiver is connected properly to the
door control. If you have questions on this, please

contact MS Sedco and ask for technical support.

3. Does the receiver have power? Ensure that 12- 24 V
AC or DC is supplied to the Red and Black wires of
the CP/RX receiver. Also ensure that the wiring
harness is plugged in correctly to the receiver. Refer
to the label inside the cover of the receiver to verify
wire harness orientation.

4. When the transmitter is triggered, does the

RECEIVER show a red LED?

• If yes, the transmitter and receiver are working

properly, but there is another issue.

• If no, the receiver is not seeing a signal from the

transmitter.

5. There is a possibility that there is interference in
the area. Change the frequency settings on both the
transmitter and receiver. If frequency interference is
affecting the signal, changing frequencies may
correct this problem. It is important to remember that
regardless of the frequency settings, both the
transmitter and receiver must match.

6. If the receiver is not responding to a signal from

the transmitter, there are a few additional things to
consider:

• Materials such as metal, energy efficient (Low “E”)

glass, or other electronic devices may affect the
signal. If possible, hold the transmitter near the
receiver and activate it. If the receiver sees the
signal there is a possibility that obstructions may
