Setup and Installation

The receiver module is designed for convenient wiring without needing to open the casing for basic connections. Ensure all power is disconnected before proceeding with any wiring.

Receiver Dimensions

The receiver unit has compact dimensions for easy integration into various setups.

Internal Components and DIP Switches

The receiver features DIP switches for selecting operating modes, a learning button for pairing, and screw terminals for secure wiring connections.

Operating Modes

The receiver supports four operating modes, configurable via the DIP switches. Ensure the receiver is powered off before changing DIP switch settings.

Pairing and Clearing Remote Controls

Pairing a Transmitter

1. Ensure the receiver is powered on.
2. Press and release the Learning Button on the receiver board. The Learning Indicator LED will light up once.
3. Within a few seconds, press any button on the remote control transmitter you wish to pair.
4. The Learning Indicator LED on the receiver will flash three times and then turn off, indicating successful pairing.
5. Test the remote control to confirm functionality.

Clearing Paired Transmitters

1. Ensure the receiver is powered on.
2. Press and hold the Learning Button on the receiver board for approximately 5 seconds.
3. The Learning Indicator LED will turn ON and then OFF.
4. After the LED turns off, release the button. All previously paired remote controls are now cleared.
5. Test any previously paired remote; the relay should no longer respond.

Application Scenarios

This wireless remote control switch is versatile and can be used in a wide range of applications due to its stable RF technology and robust relay output.

• Lighting control systems
• Garage door and electric gate openers
• Remote control for curtains and blinds
• Lifting equipment and industrial remote control
• Home appliance automation
• Smart toy control
• Water pump control
• Projection screen lifter control
• Security systems and alarms
• Various low-speed digital signal transmission and motor control applications

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your wireless remote control switch, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No response from receiver:
  • Check power supply to the receiver (DC 12V-30V). Ensure connections are secure.
  • Verify the transmitter battery is not depleted.
  • Ensure the transmitter is paired with the receiver. If not, follow the pairing instructions.
  • Check for strong RF interference in the environment.
• Intermittent operation:
  • Ensure the transmitter is within the effective range (100-500m, line of sight is best). Obstacles like thick walls can reduce range.
  • Check for loose wiring connections on both the receiver and the load.
  • Verify the DIP switch settings match the desired operating mode.
• Relay clicks but load does not activate:
  • Check the wiring to the load. Ensure it is correctly connected to the NO (Normally Open) or NC (Normally Closed) and COM (Common) terminals.
  • Verify the load's power supply is active and correctly connected.
  • Ensure the load's current draw does not exceed the 10A maximum rating of the relay.
• Learning LED does not light up during pairing:
  • Ensure the receiver has power.
  • Press the learning button firmly. If the LED still doesn't respond, there might be an issue with the receiver.

Maintenance

The CENTURY AOKE wireless remote control switch is designed for low maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure longevity:

• Cleaning: Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the receiver and transmitter. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Environment: Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures, high humidity, or direct water contact.
• Battery Replacement (Transmitter): If the remote control's range decreases or it becomes unresponsive, replace the battery. The transmitter typically uses a 12V 23A battery. To replace, carefully open the transmitter casing (usually by removing screws on the back) and insert a new battery, observing polarity.
• Wiring Inspection: Periodically check all wiring connections for tightness and signs of corrosion or damage.
