RNC Instruction Manual
The Rako RNC is a battery powered wireless keypad with up to 10 button control
(depending on model). Programmed by NFC (Near Field Communication) with
macro capability the RNC transmits wireless Rako coded Rakom messages to other
Rako wireless receiver and Bridge units.
Note: This product can only be programmed with RASOFT Pro software and the Rako
RAMPI programming interface.
Battery
The RNC requires two CR2016 lithium cell batteries for power.
Warning
Lithium batteries may explode if handled incorrectly. Always dispose of used
batteries in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations.
Installation
The RNC is designed to fit into a UK backbox.
As the unit transmits a wireless message to
remote receivers it is important that the aerial
is not surrounded by metalwork which will
restrict transmitting range, as may be the case
with a metal backbox and cover plate. It is
highly recommended to feed the aerial out of
any backbox as shown right.
Programming.
The following assumes that the user is already programming a system using
Rasoft Pro, if this is not already the case follow the guide 'Rasoft Pro-Wireless
module set-up guide' downloadable from
www.rakocontrols.com/support/technical-information/set-up-guides/
Hold the RAMPI against (or near to) the RNC as shown below.
When the device is correctly positioned a green LED will flash in the RAMPI and a
window will pop-up in Rasoft Pro prompting the device to be named and
associated to a Room. Having done this go to the Device editor page select the
inputs as necessary and assign the associated actions. This will be a single action
such as selecting a scene. If a macro function is desired then select the Macro
radio button and a drop down menu of actions will appear (the actual macro
steps are defined under the Macro tab). Having input the required actions click
on the Data Transfer tab and click Upload to device. Rasoft will issue a prompt to
hold the RAMPI against (or near) the RNC. When transferring data a progress bar
will appear in Rasoft Pro and a solid green LED will appear on the RAMPI.
