Insert the antenna to the Plug-In Remote Control as shown. Place the antenna in the upright position to have the best reception. Simply plug the Plug-In Remote Control to an electrical outlet, then plug in a light or home appliance that you would like to operate to the socket on the Plug-In Remote Control.
Note: Lighting Load
The Plug-In Remote Control is designed to operate maximum load of 1500W at 120VAC. Do not connect loading that exceeds this maximum rating.
Follow the programming instructions below to get started.
In order to operate the Plug-In Remote Control remotely with a transmitter or sensor, it must be programmed to the Plug-In Remote Control. Each module can be operated by up to 16 different transmitters (or 16 different command signals).
There are 2 operating modes with the Plug-In Remote Control:
1) On / Off Mode When a valid signal is received, it will toggle the load, i.e. turning off or on the light
2) Timer Mode When a valid signal is received, the load will be on for a specific period of time, from 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes
To program a transmitter / Sensor into the Plug-In Remote Control, follow the instructions below.
1. Plug in a load to the Plug-In Remote Control
2. Plug in the module to an AC electrical outlet, the red LED flashes once quickly. The connected load (i.e. light) will be on automatically.
3. Press and hold the “SET” button for about 3 seconds, unit the red LED flashes once. You may now release the “SET” button.
4. The red LED will continue to flash for about 15 seconds. You can now decide the operating mode of the transmitter that you plan to program.

5. If you are programming a transmitter with On / Off operation, follow steps A) to C). Otherwise, go to step 6) A. Press the PROG button on the back of the TC transmitter with a sharp object. B. Press the button on the TC transmitter that you would like to program into the module. C. Once the transmitter is programmed, the red LED on the module flashes quickly then stops flashing, indicating you have successfully programmed the transmitter to the module. D. You may operate the light with the programmed transmitter.
6. If you are programming a transmitter with Timer operation, continue to hold the “SET” button for another 6 seconds, until the LED is on steadily, then you may now follow steps 5A) to 5C) to complete the programming sequence.
“PROG” switch
Press the desired button
Note: To program other transmitters/sensors (besides TC transmitter), please refer to the instructions of thetransmitters/sensors.
Note: You must complete the programming sequence within the 15-second interval, otherwise, the module will quit from programming mode and you need to start again from step 1 if the red LED is off.
You may follow the same instructions to program additional transmitters or sensors to operate the receiver module.

As mentioned, the timer can be set to the following durations, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes.
There is only one timer setting, so all transmitters that are programmed in timer mode will have the same timer duration. To set the timer duration, follow the instructions below:
1. Plug in the module to an AC socket so it is powered on properly.
2. Turn off the connected load by a programmed transmitter. The load must be off in order to set the timer duration.
3. Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds, the red LED flashes once. The number of flash indicates the timer duration:
Timer Duration
1 min.
5 min.
15 min.
30 min.
60 min.
Antenna
Note: Once the number of flash reaches 5, it will stay at this setting. If you would like to go back to other settings, such as 1 flash, release the button and repeat from step 1 to start over.
Once a transmitter (button) is programmed in timer mode, activating this programmed transmitter (button) will turn on the light for the specified timer duration.
During a timer count down, if the module receives another signal for timer operation, the timer will start again and overrides the previous timer, therefore, extending the on period by another timer interval.
4. Continue to hold the SET button until it reaches the desired setting. The status will change every 6 seconds, i.e. hold onto the SET button for another 6 seconds, you will see the number of flashes changes from 1 to 2, 2 to 3 etc.
6. ZONE OPERATION (AVAILABLE WITH 10-BUTTON / 14-BUTTON DELUXE TRANSMITTER ONLY)
9. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
10. FCC
The Remote Control is approved by the FCC and it complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Its operation is subject to the following two conditions :
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference
WARNING:
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible of compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Input Voltage: 120V AC, 60Hz Standby Current: 5mA Maximum Rating: 13 Amps Maximum Load: 1500W at 120AVC Operating Frequency: 318MHz
A Zone Command allows you to operate multiple lights at the same time in the same zone. For instance, you may assign zone 1 to 3 different lighting fixtures in the family room (each light has its own receiver module). To set this up, refer to the Deluxe Transmitter user’s instructions.
To activate the zone command, simply press “Zone On” or “Zone Off”, then the zone number, i.e. [Zone On] + [1] means Zone 1 On.
Enter [Zone On] + [Zone Number] during step 5B of the programming sequence (ensure on / off operating mode is selected), the Zone Command signal would be programmed. Repeat this step for all the receiver modules in the same zone.
8. ERASING TRANSMITTERS FROM THE MODULE
You may erase a transmitter or sensor from the module, but you cannot erase a specific device, you must erase all the wireless devices, then program the ones you want to keep. Follow the instructions below to erase programmed transmitters / sensors.
1. Power off the Plug-In Remote Control by removing it from the AC socket.
2. Press and hold the SET button, while holding onto the SET button, plug in the module to an AC socket.
3. The red LED will be on first, then flashes rapidly for 1 second.
4. You may release the SET button, the light attached to the module is now on, indicating you have successfully erased all the devices from the lighting receiver.
