Part number 10900462 and 10900463
INSTALLATION:
The RLL unit, when received, should be checked for shipping damage. If damage has
occurred, contact the carrier that handled the shipment first and then Rapid-Air to report
the damage.
The RLL unit is shipped pretested, set to a working height of 30”, and set for payout
operation. It should be set in place on a level surface, although each stand is provided
with (4) base thru holes for 7/16 bolts if the unit is to be bolted to the floor.
Each RLL unit assembled is prewired with an Amp 14 pin circular or 25 pin D sub
connector that matches a connector output on every Rapid-Air device capable of
running from an external loop controller. Optional cord adapters are available for
interfacing each style. Contact Rapid-Air for details. The RLL gets its 115 VAC power
from the controlled device. Once the plug is attached, the RLL is ready to run.

INFRARED TRANSMITTER ASSY:
Each transmitter assy. transmits a beam of light to the receiver assy. If the beam is
interrupted by material the receiver will send the appropriate control signal to the
interface control pwb. There are no adjustments or user replaceable components on
this assy.
INFRARED RECEIVER ASSY:
Each receiver assy. receives the light beam from the transmitter assy. and sends the
appropriate control signal to the interface pwb if material interrupts the light. There is
one factory adjustment on this assy. and should never need to be field adjusted. In the
event of complete receiver replacement, a field alignment of this assy. maybe required.
Please contact Rapid-Air for details prior to any adjustments
