AC2
8. VIDEO OUT. RCA type jack. Allows direct video loop-thru to a monitor, etc. Use if a 2nd video output
jack is not available on the Video source.
9. IR INPUT: 3.5mm mono mini jack accepts standard IR signals from the emitter output jacks of Xantech
Connecting Blocks, Controllers, etc. The AC2 operates with RC68+ IR commands set to code group
number 28.
10. IR INDICATOR: Flashes when any IR signal is present.
11. DELAY Switch: Provides 16 settings of delay time between the arrival of the CONTROL IN OR VIDEO
IN signal and the ON condition of the SWITCHED OUTLET. The delay times range from 0.05 second
to 60 seconds.
12. See Figs. 1 & 4 for a chart of the available DELAY times vs DELAY SWITCH POSITION. NOTE:
Delay action does not apply to the IR INPUT signal.
13. CODE SUB-GROUP Switch. Allows a choice of 8 different groups of the four RC68+ (or RC68)
commands that operate the AC2. Also, internal E
2
PROM can be set to different code groups, allowing
up to 240 different IR code combinations. This prevents mutual interaction in common IR systems
when using more than one AC2 in a system.
• Mounting: Flanges, plus supplied screws, permit easy mounting to flat surfaces.
• Dimensions: 10-1/2" L x 3-1/4" W x 2-1/2" H (267mm x 83mm x 64mm)
RC68+ PROGRAMMER
The RC68+ (or RC68) Programmer (available separately) contains the commands necessary for IR
operation of the AC2.
• You will need it to program universal learning devices such as the Xantech URC-1 learning remote, the
Xantech Smart Pads, the 590 Programmable Controller, the 710 Fone Link, etc., with commands that
operate the AC2.
• NOTE: The RC68+ codes operate several other Xantech models as well, such as the RS41AV, CC12,
ZPR68, etc. Therefore, only the button descriptions that apply to the operation of the AC2 (Overlay
"B") are listed below. All others should be ignored.
CAUTION: While the RC68+ will operate as a separate remote control, it is highly recommended it not be
given to the final user for the following reasons:
• Since it includes setable code groups, the user may inadvertently alter the installer configurations.
• Also, since the user will require IR commands from other brands of
equipment to control the total system, in addition to those of the AC2, all
commands should be consolidated into one learning device, for ease of
use.
APPLICABLE RC68+ BUTTONS
1. Pair OFF Command. This button activates the IR command that turns
the SWITCHED OUTLET OFF.
2. Pair ON Command. This button activates the IR command that turns
the SWITCHED OUTLET ON.
3. TGL (toggle) Command. The first press of this button turns the
SWITCHED OUTLET ON -- the second press turns it OFF.
4. MMT (momentary) Command. Pressing this button turns the
SWITCHED OUTLET ON but stays ON only as long as the button is
held down. When released, the SWITCHED OUTLET turns OFF.
5. IR Emitter Lens.
