uRx Manual 1
UNIVERSAL RECEIVER (uRx)
General Operation
•
The uRx is used as the receiver for the
Keypad and uTx (Repeater Station).
•
The Universal Receiver (uRx) is also used to
remotely trigger the operation of electronic
devices using Roboguard signals.
•
The uRx can be “taught” to respond to any
particular roboguard radio signal – Tamper,
Intruder, Auto-test and Remote Tx.
(Intruder and Remote are the most
common).
•
Once the uRx has learned a roboguard code, every time it receives
that radio signal, it will respond by triggering a connected device.
•
This connected device may be an alarm system, a camera system,
a siren, an SMS module, a timer relay - in fact any device capable
of being triggered by an electronic signal.
•
For example, the uRx can be programmed to respond to a radio
signal from a Roboguard handheld remote. This handheld remote
can then be used as a panic button and the uRx can be used to
trigger an SMS module to send an sms call for help in response to
the panic signal.
•
Other popular uses include operating garage doors, switching on
external lights and triggering a strike-lock.
•
The installer must connect the uRx to a 12V-power source and to
the device that you wish to trigger.
•
The installer must also configure the options on the uRx to correctly
trigger the connected device and must program the transmitter into
the uRx through a learning process.
Installation
•
When used as a data receiver for the uTx (repeater) or Keypad,
connect 12 volts and 0 volt to the terminals.
•
Connect the data output (RXO) terminal to the Data/RXD input
terminals on the Keypad/uTx. (see Repeater Station in this manual)
