Wireless RF Remote Control System
RFK106, RFK106L
Hand Held Transmitter and Plug-in Receiver
Imagine turning on your house lights from inside your car. Or turning off your stereo from across the room. This wireless Radio Frequency (RF) control now
makes it possible. RF Controls are an easy, convenient way to remotely control lights, and appliances in and around your home or office. The invisible RF signal
passes through walls, doors, ceilings, floors and even around corners. Simply plug the desired appliance into the receiver and the receiver into any outlet. A
press of the button on the hand held transmitter, turns whatever you’ve plugged into the receiver on or off.
Channel Code Information
Three operating channels are available so you can control three separate systems at different locations in your home. Be sure to match common frequency
channels, for those devices you want operated by the same switch.

A
Press Switch to determine if your light/appliance turns on and off. If your light/appliance does
not respond try relocating the transmitter or receiver. Large metal objects such as metal doors
should not be in the way of the Transmitter and Plug-in Receiver since this could decrease the
range of the RF signal.
A
Attach transmitter to any key ring or place in a convenient location around the house.
