Control Relay Contacts Remotely

Features

The 

RC-2A

Remote Controller provides remote

relay operation from any  standard Touch Tone
telephone.

The controller is designed to be installed either lo-
cally or remotely.  For local installations the 

RC-2A

can be installed in parallel on any analog commu-
nications path, such as analog C.O. lines or analog
PABX/KSU stations and will passively monitor for
Touch Tone commands.  

For off-premise applications, the 

RC-2A

will an-

swer analog C.O. lines or PABX/KSU stations after
a selectable ring delay.  A field programmable ac-
cess code can be programmed to prevent unau-
thorized usage, and then the 

RC-2A

can be

activated to allow remote relay operation.
