RC-3
3 Relay Remote Touch
Tone Controller
August 2, 2001
The RC-3 enables a standard Touch Tone
phone to control up to 3 maintained ON, maintained OFF, or momentary relay contacts from
a remote location. The RC-3 is fully user programmable and uses non-volatile E
2
memory.
Up to three RC-3’s can be daisy chained on
the same line to control up to nine relays.
The RC-3 features switchable 12V talk battery
allowing easy installation on the trunk port. In
addition, the unit can be connected directly to
a C.O. line or analog PABX/KSU station.

The RC-3 also features a built in pulse dialer activated by a contact closure from an
alarm system, temperature sensor, etc. The RC-3 will dial the number up to three times
sending alert tones indicating an emergency.

B. Expanding To Control From 4 to 9 Relays
Two or three RC-3’s can be daisy chained to the same line to control 1 to 9 relays. One “master” RC-3 can power up
to two “slave” RC-3’s by daisy chaining power from terminals 9 and 10. The master/slave shunt should be removed
from each slave unit. This will disable each slave’s ring detection and will also reduce the total REN loading on the line.
Note: Each unit must be programmed separately before connecting to the same line (see Programming), and must be programmed
with the same access code. Battery Feed switches on the slave units must be in the “OFF” position.
A. Entering the Programming Mode
a. Connect a Touch Tone phone to the RJ-OUT jack.
b. Place the BATTERY FEED switch in the ON position.
c. Come off hook.
d. Enter
✱ and the security code (factory set to 845464).
e. Two beeps should be heard. You are now in the programming mode.

1. To Locally Program the RC-3 (without connecting the unit to a telco line)
a. Place the BATTERY FEED switch in the OFF position.
b. Connect the RJ-IN jack to your C.O. line or analog PABX/KSU extension.
c. Call into the unit.
d. When the unit answers, two beeps should be heard.
e. Enter
✱ and the security code (factory set to 845464).
f. Two beeps should be heard. You are now in the programming mode.
Note: Upon entering the programming mode (or after a power outage without battery back-up), all relays will return
to their programmed state.
