This guide assists individuals who are familiar with the Powr-Touch
program the relay panels, and to erase device assignments. For more detailed information, please refer to the primary Installation,
Operation & Maintenance Manual.
Before beginning any programming, you must be able to identify what equipment is connected to which relay set. Refer to the
gymnasium floor plan or the Custom Equipment Legend for device number assignment. Relay Set Terminal Assignment Worksheets
illustrating the relay panels are included with each relay panel – they are to be filled in by the electrician to annotate the equipment
number assignments (an example is shown on page 3).

Programming Guide
For systems with more than one TouchPad, programming can be done from any TouchPad in the system.
Note – While programming, you do not have to enter the password to activate the system.
Set the TouchPad to Address 0 (Program mode) by pushing all three dip switches on the back of the
TouchPad to the closed position. See detail at right.
Each piece of equipment is programmed at the TouchPad with the same sequence:
1. Tell the system which Relay Set you are programming (001 through 128).
2. Tell the system what type of equipment is to be operated (Backstops, Curtains, MISC.).
3. Tell the system the pre-assigned number of the Device being controlled (01 through 99).
4. Press the DOWN / Off button.
If the programming sequence has been performed properly, the TouchPad LED will illuminate red for half a second. After
programming is complete, the TouchPad dip switch must be reset to its previous valid address (1 thru 7).
Note – When punching in the Relay Set number, you must enter it as a three-digit number (001, not 1). When punching in the Device
number, you must enter it as a two-digit number (01, not 1).
Suggestion – With the TouchPad set to Program mode, it will be easier to program all equipment in succession. After all
programming has been completed, all equipment can then be tested in succession.
If programming cannot be performed successfully, double-check the following:
Verify all relay panel address settings (see chart on page 14 of the manual). Verify that one panel is set to Address 0. This panel
is the Master panel – one Master panel must be present in the system.
Verify that the four communication wires are present between each touchpad and a relay panel. Also verify that the ends of each
wire are connected to matching terminals: +12V, GND, COMM+, COMM–. See wiring diagram on page 16 or 17 of the manual.
Continue to pages 2 and 3 for additional programming notes.

1. Enter the relay set number: 015
2. Press the device type: Backstop
3. Enter the device number: 06
4. Press the DOWN / Off button.
In the above individual and multiple programming examples, Backstops 3, 4, 5 or 6 will operate individually when the operator at the
TouchPad enters Backstop 3, 4, 5 or 6 and presses and holds either the UP or DOWN button. These four backstops will operate
simultaneously when the operator at the TouchPad enters Backstop 60 and presses and holds either the UP or DOWN button.
Multiple Operation
• A maximum of four (4) backstops or height adjusters can be operated simultaneously (multiple operation).
• Each member of a multiple operation set must be powered by a separate relay bank (see pages 11, 16 and 17 of the manual).
• Any device number can be assigned to operate a multiple operation set, but number assignments 50 thru 99 are
recommended.
•Only the Backstop and MISC. function keys can be programmed for multiple operation. The Curtain function key cannot
be programmed for multiple operation.

Checklist
It is highly recommended that a checklist be created before
programming is started. The checklist will show every
device that needs to be programmed. As each device is
programmed, you can check it off the list. The checklist is
especially useful when backstops and height adjusters will
be operated individually and in multiples.
Shown at right is a checklist for a facility with six
backstops: two on one main court, and four on two cross
courts. Each backstop can be operated individually
(Backstop 1 thru 6). Backstop 50 operates both main court
backstops (1 and 2). Backstop 51 operates one of the cross
courts (Backstops 3 and 4). Backstop 52 operates the other
cross court (Backstops 5 and 6). Backstop 60 operates all
four cross court backstops (Backstops 3, 4, 5 and 6). Also
part of this system are two divider curtains.
The checklist shown at right is strictly an example. The
actual equipment configuration at each job site will be
different and unique. Create your own checklist
accordingly.
Relay Set Terminal Assignment Worksheet
Shown at right is an example of the worksheet that
is to be completed by the electrician who installed
and wired the relay panel. There will be a unique
worksheet for each relay panel (Address 0 through
Address 15). These worksheets are essential when
identifying what equipment is connected to which
relay set. Have these completed worksheets at
your disposal before beginning any programming.
All devices that are programmed properly in the Powr-Touch
programmed/assigned to four relay sets, it cannot be programmed to additional relay sets. If a mistake was made during the
programming sequence and a device number was accidentaly assigned to the wrong relay set, an erase procedure will be required.
Refer to the erase options examples below.
Complete system erase:
Note: This procedure will erase all device assignments in the Powr-Touch® II system.
1. Set the No. 12550-100 TouchPad dip switch to address "0" (Program mode)
2. Enter 999
3. Enter Backstop 00
4. Press the DOWN / Off button.
Individual device assignment erase:
Note: This procedure will erase the device number assignment selected in the Powr-Touch® II system.
1. Set the No. 12550-100 TouchPad dip switch to address "0" (Program mode)
2. Enter 900
3. Enter the device type and number. Example: Backstop 03
4. Press the DOWN / Off button.
In the above example, Backstop 3 will be erased from all memory locations (single and multiple operation) in the Powr-Touch® II
system.
Relay panel erase:
Note: This procedure will erase all device number assignments in the selected Powr-Touch® II relay panel.
1. Set the No. 12550-100 TouchPad dip switch to address "0" (Program mode)
2. Calculate the code number to enter. To erase relay panel address "0", add the number "1" to the relay panel address number, then
add the constant number "900". Example: Relay panel address "0" +1 + 900 = 901.
3. Enter 901
4. Enter Backstop 00
5. Press the DOWN / Off button.
In the above example, all device number assignments in relay panel address "0" will be erased.
