Safety Advice

 -  The plug-in receiver is only de-energized 

when it is disconnected from the mains sup-

ply.

 -  The outlet in which the unit is operated must 

be easily accessible.

 -  Have faulty units checked by the manufactu-

rer!

 -  Do not open the unit housing!
 -  Do not make any unauthorized alterations or 

modifications to the unit!

Function

The RCP20 plug-in socket receiver is used to 

control an electric device via radio transmitter or 

locally using the I/O button. 
The operating modes ON/OFF, LOGIC, DEAD 

MAN and TIMER are available (see section “Ope-

rating modes“).
32 transmission codes can be programmed into  

the receiver. 
For local operation the device is controlled using 

the I/O button in ON/OFF 1-button operating 

mode.
The integrated POTA (Programming Over The 

Air) remote programming function can be used to 

reprogram an already-installed and no longer ac-

cessible receiver. A detailed POTA programming 

specification is available on our website:             
https://www.eldat.de/pota_en.pdf

or you can request support from our customer 

service.

Operation

Briefly  press  button  P  to  begin  programming 

mode for the required operation type. Any Easy-

wave transmitter can then be programmed under 

this operation type. 
A separate operation type can be assigned to 

each transmitter / transmitter button. 
When in 2-button operation (2-TB), transmitter 

buttons A and C switch ON. Transmitter buttons 

B and D switch OFF. Only one transmitter button 

must be taught-in to the receiver, as the code of 

the second button is automatically assigned.  
In 

1-button operation (1-TB)

, each function is 

triggered with just one transmitter button. Each 

button must be programmed individually into the 

receiver, there is no automatic assignment. 
The receiver can be switched ON and OFF locally 

with the I/O button. 

Timeout

 

(1)

If no button is pressed within 30 seconds, the 

RCP20 automatically switches to standby. The 

settings are not saved.

Setting up the Receiver

1.  Plug the plug-in receiver into a properly func-

tioning earthed outlet.

2.  With the programming button P, you can start 

the programming mode for the required ope-

ration type (see “Operating modes”) and as-

sociate the transmitter. 

3.  Plug the mains plug of the device to be swit-

ched into the mains output of the receiver.

 

Make sure there is no interference with 

the wireless connection!

 Do not mount the 

device in a distribution box, in  metal casings 

and in direct proximity to large metal objects.

Safety Advice

 

   

Before installing the device, carefully 

read through this operating manual! 

Failing to observe these instructions 

may result in fire or other hazards.

 -  The circuit on which the device is operated 

must be protected with a circuit breaker 

in accordance with EN60898-1 (tripping 

characteristic B or C) with a maximum rated 

current of 10 A.

 -  Caution: Do not plug in any plug-in device!

 -  We will not accept any liability for personal 

injury or damage to property caused by 

failure to observe the operating instructions 

and in particular the safety advice!

 -  Observe the applicable laws, standards and 

regulations as well as the manufacturer’s 

instructions for the devices to be operated!

Operating modes

2-button operation

ON/OFF

Transmission code B or D switches OFF.

LOGIC

 

All taught-in transmission codes are linked in ac-

cordance with AND/OR logic.  

OR

If one of the programmed transmitters trans-

mits an ON telegram (A/C), the receiver swit-

ches ON.

AND

If 

all

 programmed transmitters which have pre-

viously transmitted an ON telegram (A/C) have 

transmitted an OFF telegram (B/D), the recei-

ver switches OFF.

This operating mode is subordinate to all other 

operation types! This means that any command 

from a transmitter under another operation type 

will disable this operation type! If another opera-

tion type switches ON or OFF while logic is ON, 

the logic function is reset but can be restarted at 

any time.

1-button operation

ON/OFF

 

 

Each transmitter code A/B/C/D can switch ON 

and OFF alternately.
If the transmitter button is pressed for longer than 

2 seconds, all receivers being programmed with 

the code of the button are switched OFF (status 

of switching is synchronized).

DEAD MAN

  

The output switches as long as the transmitter 

button is pressed, but for a maximum of 36 se

-

conds.

TIMER

 

adjustable, retriggerable
The receiver switches ON and automatically OFF 

again after the set time (factory setting: 7 minu

-

tes). Any transmission code A/B/C/D can be used. 

Pressing the transmission button again before the 

timer finishes extends the switching time again to 

the set switching time. The TIMER function can 

be set by the user in a range from 1 second to 30 

hours (see “Set TIMER”).
