WIRING APPLICATIONS

All wiring to the MRHC3 and MRRC3 is Class 2 low voltage

and shall meet local code for Class 2 Equipment wiring.

Both interfaces use removable screw terminal blocks

for easy wiring access. Power to the scene interfaces is

provided by a plug-in power supply.
Output Power: Two terminals allow the interfaces to power

external sensors: 24VDC and Ground. The 24VDC output

is capable of supplying up to 150mA to power external

occupancy sensors or other devices.
Primary applications include motion sensors, alarm

systems, time clock and home/away functions when

interfaced to a garage door. The followng sections provide

wiring instructions specific to each type of application along

with operating mode suggestions.

Garage Door

Interface the MRHC3 or MRRC3 to a multi-channel garage

door controller with at least 3 channels. Use two channels to

execute the home and away features, while the third channel

toggles the garage door open or closed. On a 4-channel

interface, the 4th channel can operate a gate or second door.

Use Mode-A to set up the MRHC3 or MRRC3 for home and

away applications.

Motion Sensor

A motion sensor application could use either Mode-A or

Mode-B. Most applications would use Mode-B. In this

configuration, a scene executes when the sensor initially

detects motion and a second scene executes when the

motion sensor determines that the space is unoccupied.

However, Mode-A allows Auto-ON, Manual-OFF and Manual-

ON Auto-OFF functions. A manual-ON Auto-OFF application

requires the input to be wired to a NC contact and the scene

stored to turn the appropriate lighting off.

Astronomic Time Clock

A time clock application is nearly identical to that of a motion

sensor. Mode-B allows a transition between two scenes, or

Mode-A executes a single scene.

MRRC3 (Only) — Scene Inhibit

The purpose of the scene inhibit feature in Mode-B is to lock

out signals on input 1 and 2 when input 3 is high. When input

3 goes high, signals to inputs 1 & 2 are ignored. This function

is commonly used with a motion detector in conjunction with

a time clock or similar device.
When input 3 goes low, signals at input 1 and input 2 will

recall scenes as appropriate for MRRC3 Mode-B binding

(see Table 4).

uSER INTERFACE

The user interface consists of two pushbuttons and a multi-

color LED for device status.

PuSHBuTTONS

The pushbuttons are the Top button ( ) and the Bottom

button ( ).

Binding Operations

Press both buttons simultaneously ( ) for about 2 seconds to

initiate binding operations.

Operating Mode Selection

See Switching Operating Modes, next page.

Reset to Factory Default/unconfigure

When both the buttons are simultaneously pressed for a

period of 10 seconds, the device performs a system reset

and clears all memory contents. This resets the device to

an unbound un-configured state (the LED changes to solid

yellow).
