WireLink and RadioLink DIN LVRS — MODEL: LVRS8-DIN & STOLER821

 

 

Overview 
Vantage’s DIN 

Low Voltage Relay Station

 WireLink™ model, 

LVRS8-DIN and RadioLink™ model, STOLER821 feature 8 isolated, 
latching relay channels for switching low voltage or dry contact 
closures to third party systems or devices. The DIN LVRS does not 
produce or provide any power. Each relay is single-pole, double-
throw, which offers a normally closed, normally open set of 
contacts for each relay. Each relay has an actuator button on the 
front of the LVRS which toggles the relay and is useful for testing 
wiring and operation without programming the system. Some 
examples for using a DIN LVRS would be: draperies, pumps, garage 
doors, HVAC dampers, lifts, screens, pool covers, sprinklers, 
showers, baths, security systems, etc.

CAUTION:

 36V stations have a

connected to a 36Volt Station Bus. 
  
Software/Firmware 
The WireLink model is compatible with InFusion Design Center 
software or QLink 3.5 and Controller Firmware 6.5 or higher. The 
RadioLink model is compatible with InFusion Design Center or 
QLink 4.0 and Controller Firmware 7.0 or higher. For new projects 
it is recommended that firmware and software be kept to the most 
current release. 
 
Installation/Mounting 
Installation of Vantage products should be performed or 
supervised by a

 Certified Vantage Installer. 

The Low Voltage Relay 

Station installation is very simple. There are two methods of 
connecting the Station Bus to the Low Voltage Relay Station for 
the WireLink model: 
 
a.

 

Using the 2 wire pigtail connection located on the top of the 
DIN LVRS 

b.

 

Using the pins on the side of the Station to pass Station Bus 
(see Drawing) Part #VDC-0197 

c.

 

The 

RadioLink

 model needs a power supply connected. 

Vantage part VFA-0008, 12 Volt Plug-in Supply for use with 
RadioLink Products 12VDC 1500mA is nominal.  

d.

 

The DIN LVRS is mounted on a standard 35 mm DIN Rail 
(EN 50 022: 1977).  

e.

 

All low voltage connections to the LVRS relays are wired to 
removable screw terminal connectors. These relays may be 
given custom names in software to facilitate their use in the 
installation. 

 
Connecting Device Requirements 
Each individual low voltage contact is rated as follows: 
Maximum Current = 1A 
Maximum Voltage = 48Vac / 30Vdc 
 
Station Set Up in Software 

InFusion: 

First select the room, then click on 

Vantage Objects 

in 

the 

Object Explorer

 and expand 

Stations, WireLink

 or 

Stations, 

RadioLink

. From the list of stations double click on the DIN LVRS to 

place it in the room. In the 

Object Editor,

 name the station and 

make sure it is on the correct station bus port. 
 

QLink:  

First change to Wiring view, right click on the Main 

Controller and from the pop-up menu, select 

Add DIN Stations

 or 

Add RadioLink Stations

 | 

Low Voltage Relay

 from the station list. 

This will reveal the 

DIN Relay Station Definition

 Dialog Box. Type 

the name of the Station. Click OK to exit the Definition window. 
Right click on the station and select Add Low Voltage Relay to add 
the relay loads. In the Relay Definition window, name the relay and 
assign it to the correct floor and room. 
 
Programming the Relay Station 
Because they are relays the eight buttons on the DIN LVRS cannot 
be programmed directly. Programmed Buttons, Time Controls or 
Host Commands in InFusion and V-Commands in QLink are used to 
control the relays. The relays are accessed by selecting the relay 
load in Programming.  
 
Configuration with Wired Models 
When the station is first connected to the Station Bus, the 
diagnostic LED will blink twice followed by a pause, meaning that 
the station is connected correctly but not yet configured. From 
Design Center, click on the Configure Stations button on the 
toolbar or from QLink, select System | Configure Stations and click 
on the radio Configure button in the Online Configuration section 
from the pull down menu. Highlight the DIN LVRS. The Status LED 
will blink 5 times followed by a pause and the button LEDs will 
blink rapidly indicating that the station is in configuration mode. To 
finish configuring press any button on the Station 3 times. The 
station may also be configured by typing the serial number in the 
project file, using this method the station will automatically be 
configured when the system is programmed. Once configured the 
Status LED will blink evenly and the buttons stop blinking. 
 
Configuration with RadioLink* 
RadioLink DIN LVRSRL stations need to be configured to associate 
which physical station goes with the station in software.  
 
When the station is initially powered-up, the Status LED will blink 
three times followed by a pause - this means the station is 
powered correctly but not yet on the network. 

Before

 uploading 

the file to the Vantage system, do the following: From Design  
Center, click in the 

Serial Number

 section in the 

Object Editor

 and 

type in the serial number. From the menu bar in QLink, select 

System/Configure Stations

. A list of all stations will be displayed on 

the screen. Manually enter the serial number for each RadioLink 
station to match it with the corresponding programming in QLink. 
 
The serial number of each station is located on a permanent sticker 
on the front of the station. Record the number for easy reference 
when programming. The Main Controller will add to its network 
and configure all the RadioLink stations that it has serial numbers 
for. This may take several minutes depending on the number of 
RadioLink stations on the network. The Status LED will blink 
steadily when a station has been added to the network and 
configured.
