Relay Response Mode Configuration
Each of the six relays of the RCRC6R remote control receiver may be configured
for one of three possible “Response Modes.” A Response Mode defines how a
relay functions when that relay’s associated button is pressed on the handheld
transmitter (part number KTXWxxxC6). The individual Response Modes for
Relay 1 through Relay 6 are determined by the settings of DIP Switches S1-1
through S1-6 respectively, as shown in Fig. 1. The three available Response
Modes are Momentary (factory default), Toggle, and Latched. The following
sections describe in detail the characteristics of, and configuration settings for,
the various Relay Response Modes.
Momentary Mode
(factory-default)
A relay energizes when its associated button on the transmitter is pressed.
The relay deactivates when the transmitter’s button is released (or reception
of the transmitter’s signal ceases). A relay is configured for Momentary
Mode when that relay’s associated section of DIP Switch S1 is set to the
center (
MOM
) position.
Toggle Mode
A relay energizes when its associated button on the transmitter is pressed,
and remains energized after the button is released. A subsequent press of the
same button on the transmitter will deactivate the relay. In this mode, each
of the relays is completely independent of the others, thus any number of
relays configured for Toggle Mode may be energized at any given time. A
relay is configured for Toggle Mode when that relay’s associated section of
DIP Switch S1 is switched down to the
TOG
position.

DIP Switch S2 defines “Latch

Latch Group will unlatch all other
latching relays in that group

Settings only take effect upon power-up.
NOTE:
For S2-1, S2-2, and S2-3 only the
highest-numbered switch is recognized if more
than one is turned ON.
This does not apply to S2-4 (Master Reset).

Latched Mode
A relay energizes when its associated button on the transmitter is
pressed, and remains energized after the button is released. That relay is
turned off when another Latched Mode relay is activated. A relay is
configured for Latched Mode when that relay’s associated section of
DIP Switch S1 is switched up to the
LATCH
position.
If any relays are configured for Latched Mode, a “Latch Group” must
also be selected via DIP Switch S2 (refer to Fig. 1). A Latch Group
consists of two or more relays. Only one relay within a Latch Group can
be energized at any given time. The receiver offers four different Latch
Groups: physical orientation of the buttons on the handheld transmitter,
as shown in the following four illustrations. The desired Latch Group
may be selected via DIP Switch S2 (refer to Fig. 1).Horizontal, Vertical,
Corner, and Global. Each Latch Group is organized by the physical
location of the buttons on the handheld transmitter, as shown in the
following four illustrations. The desired latch group may be selected via
DIP switch S2 (refer to Figure 1.)
