BEFORE YOU BEGIN...

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Make sure your installation will conform to all applicable codes and requirements.

TEST FOR SIGNAL STRENGTH AND NOISE...

using appropriate test equipment. It is necessary to test the installation in the actual operating
environment. The amount and types of line loads may reduce the strength of the transmitted signal
and/or electrical noise may cause interference with the transmitted signal. Proper installation may
require additional couplers, filters or repeaters. Special coupling devices are required to allow signal
to be distributed to all phases and zero-crossings in multi-phase and multi-transformer distributions.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS...

consult your nearest Engineered System Center (ESC) for additional information.

There are no field repairable assemblies on this unit. It is covered by a two year limited warranty. If
service is needed, the unit must be returned to the ESC where purchased. Contact your ESC for return
details.

INSTALLATION / SETTING THE ADDRESS

1. Make sure the load connected does not exceed the device rating.

2. Plug a lamp into the RD124 (make sure it is turned ON).

Note: If you first plug the RD124 into an outlet it will respond only to factory preset address A1.

3. To change the address, hold in the push-button on the front of the module, insert the RD124

into the receptacle, or apply power if already connected to a controlled circuit. The lamp connected
to the module will illuminate, turn OFF, and then turn back ON. (Make sure the lamp is turned
ON before you start). YOU DO NOT NEED A LAMP plugged into the module to change the
address, but it is helpful visual aid.

NOTE: The module waits for a new address to be configured for up to 1 minute. If a new address is
not received within that time, the module will turn off the connected lamp, and continue to respond
to the old address.

4. Now transmit the desired address twice with a 1 second pause between transmissions (can be

any single address from A1 to P16) or address plus command (can be ON or OFF). Load does
not respond to configuration command as such, but the lamp will turn OFF indicating the new
address is now configured.

5. The module will now respond to the new address. Transmit an ON command to verify proper

operation.
