Niles Audio RVL-6 - Manual (Page 14)

Connecting Multiple Flashers to a Single Flasher Output
• Using crimp caps, wire nuts or solder, connect the negative of one flasher to
the positive of the next flasher (see Figure 14 ). This creates a “series” circuit.
The IRC-1 Flooding IR Flasher allows a maximum of two in series to be con-
nected to a single FLASHER output. The IRC-2 MicroFlasher allows a maxi-
mum of four in series to be connected to a single FLASHER output.
Automating Your System Using the CONTROL OUT
• The CONTROL OUT supplies a constant 12V DC (maximum of a 200mA draw ) when any of the room
modules are on (see Figure 15 ).
• When all the room modules are turned off the 12V DC is turned off after a 30 second delay.
Distributing System-Wide Commands Using the UART Connector
• The UART connector distributes the ALL ON and ALL OFF com-
mands to all RVL-6’s in the system by connecting in parallel
using two-conductor 20 gauge cable (see
Figure 16 ). Connect
pin one to pin one and pin two to pin two. Wiring runs should
not exceed three feet in length.
Controlling the RVL-6 with X-10 ®
• The X-10 input enables the RVL-6 to be controlled by X-10
compatible controllers using your existing AC home wiring.
• A TW-523 X-10 Interface Module (sold separately, Niles
stock# FG00256) is required to interface with the RVL-6.
• See the Setting the X-10 DIP Switches section on page 16 for
details on X-10 control options.
Powering Your RVL-6
• The RVL-6 is powered by plugging the 12V DC, 1.2 amp wall adapter (included) into the POWER jack.
