4. Setup and Installation

4.1 Mounting the Receiver

1. Choose a suitable location for mounting. Due to its IP54 rating, the RE862 can be installed outdoors, but ensure it is protected from direct mechanical impact.
2. Mark the drilling points on the wall or surface using the receiver's mounting holes as a template.
3. Drill holes and insert appropriate wall plugs.
4. Secure the receiver to the surface using the provided screws.

4.2 Wiring Connections

The RE862 receiver requires a 12-24V AC or DC power supply. It provides two Normally Open (NO) contact outputs, one for each channel.

• Power Supply: Connect the 12-24V AC/DC power supply to the designated terminals on the receiver. Observe polarity if using DC power.
• Channel 1 Output: Connect the output terminals for Channel 1 to the control input of your automation system (e.g., gate opener, garage door opener). This is a Normally Open (NO) contact.
• Channel 2 Output: Connect the output terminals for Channel 2 to the control input of your second automation system or function. This is also a Normally Open (NO) contact.

Refer to the detailed wiring diagram included with your product for specific terminal assignments. Ensure all connections are secure and insulated.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Programming Remote Controls

The RE862 receiver is designed to work with Came 868.35 MHz remote controls. The programming process typically involves placing the receiver into a learning mode and then transmitting a signal from the remote control.

1. Enter Learning Mode: Locate the programming button (often labeled "PROG" or "MEM") on the RE862 receiver. Press and hold this button until an indicator LED (usually red or green) illuminates or flashes, indicating the receiver is in learning mode.
2. Transmit from Remote: While the receiver is in learning mode, press the desired button on your Came remote control that you wish to associate with Channel 1. The receiver's LED should change its behavior (e.g., flash rapidly, turn solid, or turn off) to confirm successful learning.
3. Repeat for Channel 2 (if applicable): If you wish to program a second button on the remote for Channel 2, repeat the process. Some receivers may require re-entering learning mode for each channel or have a specific sequence for multi-channel programming.
4. Exit Learning Mode: The receiver will typically exit learning mode automatically after a short period of inactivity or after a successful programming sequence. Some models may require a short press of the programming button to exit.

For detailed programming steps, including instructions for the "Rolling Code Memory" module if present, refer to the specific programming guide provided with your receiver. The exact procedure may vary slightly depending on the firmware version.

5.2 Testing Operation

After programming, test the remote control's functionality. Press the programmed button on the remote. The receiver's output relay for the corresponding channel should activate, and your connected automation system should respond.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the exterior of the receiver with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect wiring connections for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Ensure the housing remains securely mounted and free from cracks.
• Antenna: Ensure the antenna (if external) is unobstructed and in good condition for optimal range.
• Firmware Updates: Check the Came official website for any available firmware updates, though these typically require specialized tools.
