RadioLink® AccentPoint Relay Station II — MODEL: APREL(-GU)
Overview
The Vantage AccentPoint Relay II
connects to the Vantage
Control System through RadioLink®. It enables an appliance to
be controlled by a keypad, timed event, IR button, etc. It has
two loads and one button for each load with default
programming to allow for local control/testing of the load,
whether the station is communicating with the Vantage system
or not.

System Requirements
This station is compatible with InFusion Design Center
Systems. For new projects it is recommended that firmware
and software be kept to the most current release.
Installation
Installation of Vantage products should be performed or
supervised by a
Certified Vantage Installer.
1.
Make sure the appliance to be controlled is turned OFF.
2.
Plug the appliance into the load 1 or load 2 outlet on the
bottom of the AccentPoint.
3.
Plug the AccentPoint into the bottom receptacle of a
power outlet. Notice the plug of the AccentPoint Relay II
Station may be ordered with the GND prong UP. If the
GND prong on the outlet is UP, check the Ground Pin Up
check box in Design Center to order the correct part,
APREL-GU
. Turn the appliance switch to ON
4.
It is now ready to be controlled by the Vantage system.
Station Set Up in Design Center Software
1.
Select the room
2.
Click on
Vantage Objects
in the
Object Explorer
and
expand
Stations, RadioLink
.
3.
From the list of stations double click on the
AccentPoint
Relay Station II
to place it in the room.
4.
In the
Object Editor,
name the station and make sure it is
on the correct RadioLink bus port.
5.
Select other settings as wanted in the
Object Editor
.
Configuration
RadioLink 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:
1.
In Design Center with the AccentPoint Relay II
highlighted, in the
Object Editor
click in the
Serial
Number
section
2.
Manually type in the serial number of the AccentPoint
Dimmer II station.
3.
Repeat for each AccentPoint Relay II station
4.
TIP:
The serial number of each station is located on a
permanent sticker on the station. Record this number for
easy reference when programming in Design Center.
5.
When the InFusion System is programmed, the Main
Controller will add all RadioLink stations that it has serial
numbers for. This may take several minutes depending
on the number of RadioLink stations on the network.
6.
The Status LED will blink steadily when logged on to the
network.
QLink Support
QLink Systems do not directly support the AccentPoint Relay
Station II stations which have two loads. For QLink
applications, select the AccentPoint Relay from the RadioLink
station list and note the following limitation.
QLink Limitation:
Only the left load will be switched on the APREL
when used with QLink
Device Operation
The AccentPoint Relay II is designed to be controlled from a
separate keypad, timed event or other control on the Vantage
System. It also has a button for local control of each load. The
buttons operate with default programming whether or not the
device is communicating with the Vantage System. Pressing
the buttons toggle the loads on and off.
When power is restored from a power outage the device will
return the load to the last load state. This will occur whether or
not the station is connected to a system.
Reset
The device stores the configuration data locally so that it will
continue to operate correctly if communication with the
system is lost. To reset this information to the factory default,
unplug the device, press and hold both buttons in and plug it
in while holding the buttons down. After a reset the load will
be off, and other settings will be at factory default.
Note: Make sure it is back on-line with the Controller before
testing button or load operation.
