Each channel is independent and separately fused. The ELITE Remote control system provides 230V mains switched outputs via each terminal. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. First mount the ELITE system receiver box in the wall in your desired location (see Page 7 for wall mounting dimensions and information). Open the enclosure by removing fixing screws from the enclosure front and then removing the front from the enclosure. Wire the LIVE Neutral and Earth connections to the power supply screw terminal as shown below (shown as A). Wire your load(s) as required (shown as B) Once all required wiring is complete, use the handheld ELITE transmitter to switch the outputs on and off. As supplied the handheld will operate the outputs - Button 1 to output 1, Button 2 to output 2 etc. All buttons will operate in a latching mode - Press for on, press again for off. It is possible to change the operation to momentary mode by fitting the links (shown as C) For advanced operation such as adding extra transmitters different button mapping options see advanced operation section. Fig 1.1 DS-ELITE-1 PAGE 4 ELITE Remote control System Advanced operation The ELITE system comes with one transmitter, this is already SYNC’ed and will operate the system out of the box. To AUTO-SNYC a new transmitter 1. To SYNC a new ELITE handheld transmitter to the receiver box - simply press the SNYC button on the ELITE receiver board. (see page 3 for button locations) 2. The ELITE receiver will flash all of its relay output LEDs at a high rate to show that it is ready for AUTO-SYNC. 3. Press ANY button on the transmitter handheld that you wish to SNYC to the receiver. 4. All flashing LEDs will go out, LED 8 will flash quickly for 2 seconds then go out. 5. The ELITE receiver will then exit SYNC mode and return to normal operating mode - you may now use the transmitter to switch the outputs. MANUAL-SYNC individual transmitter buttons (advanced) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. To SYNC a specific ELITE handheld transmitter button to a specific output on the ELITE receiver box press the SNYC button on the ELITE receiver board. (see page 3 for button locations). The ELITE receiver will flash all its relay output LEDs at a high rate to show that it is ready for SYNC. Press the SYNC button again - the ELITE receiver will flash output LED 1 only - this is showing that output 1 is selected. Pressing the SYNC button again will select output 2 and so on to output 4. Once you have selected the required output (that output LED only is flashing) press ANY button on the transmitter handheld that you wish to SNYC to the receiver. The flashing LEDs will go out, LED 8 will flash quickly for 2 seconds then go out. NOTE: After a successful pairing the Elite-RX will exit SYNC mode automatically. You cannot SYNC ALL and MANUAL SYNC a single transmitter. Erasing ALL transmitters: 1. 2. 3. 4. Open the case and apply power Press and hold the ERASE button for 10 seconds All relay LEDs flash together and then go out Erase complete, you can now follow the pairing process to pair your transmitters to the receiver. ERASE Individual Transmitters: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Open the case and apply power Press and release the ERASE button The LED next to ERASE should remain lit and all relay LEDs will be flashing Press any button on the transmitter to be erased All output LEDs will go out to show that the transmitter has been erased The ELITE will exit to normal operating mode Erasing ALL Timers: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Open the case and apply power Press and hold the TIMER button for 10 seconds, A single relay LED will be flashing When all Relay LED flash together and then go out the timer erase process is complete. All relays will operate as per their jumper settings. DS-ELITE-1 PAGE 5 ELITE Remote control System Advanced operation continued… Installation TEST MODE The ELITE comes with an in-built test mode which allows a user to check the signal strength of any compatible handheld: 1. Press the SIGNAL TEST button on the PCB 2. Press any button/activate the transmitter which you want to test 3. LEDs 1-8 will show a bar graph of the signal strength - the more LEDs on the better the signal TIP: Try the transmitter in the location where it will be used to make sure it will work once installation is complete. Note: When in test mode and paired transmitter will still activate its relay. For reliable communications please ensure at least 3 LED’s are lit. Installation TIMER SELECT MODE NOTE: As default all timers are set to 0 seconds. The ELITE has a timer option which can be set individually on each output. Meaning that you can set any output to de-activate after a different amount of time should you wish 1. To enter timer select mode - Press the TIMER SELECT button 2. Select your chosen output by pressing the TIMER SELECT button to scroll through each relay in turn 3. When the LED for the required output is flashing wait until it becomes solidly LIT 4. Press the TIMER SELECT button again to increase the timer delay in line with the table belo 5. When you have selected the required delay, wait 3 seconds. All Red LEDs will flash to show that the setting is saved 0 LED 1 LED 2 LED 3 LED 4 LED 5 LED 6 LED 7 LED 8 LED 0s ½s 5s 10s 30s 1m 10m 30m 1hr Note: Settings are saved even after power is removed. When zero LED’s are lit the relays will operate as per the jumper links. Momentary or latching. Setting MOMENTARY / LATCHING links NOTE: As default all relay switches are latching. It is possible to set the relay switches on the ELITE receiver to either momentary or latching operation (Latching - one press for on, one press for off, Momentary - On while button is held only) 1. Remove all power from the receiver and then open the ELITE-RX receiver enclosure. Unscrew the antenna and slide out the PCB. 2. The Momentary/Latching Setting links are in the position shown as (C) page 4. 3. To set a relay switch to momentary, simply set the links as per the below table for the appropriate relay switch. 4. Re-assemble the ELITE-RX and re-apply the power.
