Overview:
The ResponseCard Single Event Keypad (RCSE-01) is designed to be used with the Turning
Technologies RF Receivers connected to a PC. The keypad transmits key presses via radio
frequency to the RF receiver for accumulation by the PC. The keypad consists of 6 data keys
(1-5, and Channel) and a single status LED.
In Idle state, the LED is OFF. The keypad returns to idle state after completion of a key press.
Standard Operation Mode:
Initially the status LED is OFF.
Pressing a single key will cause the key to be transmitted to the receiver. After pressing a key
the status LED shows status as follows:
Quick YELLOW Blink then OFF - Receiver is not accepting data at this time
BLINKING YELLOW - key is being transmitted (up to 5 seconds)
SOLID GREEN - key transmit successful - ready for input
SOLID RED - key transmit failed – ready for input
BLINKING GREEN - Receiver indicated correct answer
BLINKING RED - Receiver indicated incorrect answer
Blinking Green and Blinking Red will only occur if the Receiver is configured to indicate a
correct or incorrect answer (CORRECT POLLING mode).
Set RF Channel
Press Channel Button
Set RF Channel mode is indicated by the status LED flashing a RED then GREEN pattern. Set
RF Channel mode exits automatically after two valid keys are pressed, if no valid key is pressed
for 5 seconds, or at any time an invalid key is pressed. Valid keys are ‘1’ through ‘5’. Valid RF
Channels are ‘11’ through ‘55’.
While in Set RF Channel mode pressing a valid key will cause the status LED to briefly flash
YELLOW. When Set RF Channel Mode exits, the status LED indicates the result as follows:
SOLID GREEN - Set RF Channel successful
SOLID RED - Set RF Channel failed
