INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
RC68+
PROGRAMMER / REMOTE CONTROL
The RC68+ programmer is a 55 key hand-held device that generates all the IR
codes necessary for the set up and operation of Xantech IR remote controlled
products. Such products include models ZPR68, RAT1, MIRV1, GATEKEEP-IR,
etc. The RC68+ is an upgrade of the previous 32 key RC68. While providing
additional key-code command capabilities, it retains all previous RC68 program-
ming in a similar 32 key layout section on the keypad.
GENERAL
• The RC68+ is used initially for the setup of system control parameters and IR
Code Groups for Xantech products.
• It is then used to "teach" a basic set of operational IR commands into universal
learning devices such as the Xantech URC series learning remotes, the
Xantech Smart Pads, the 590 Programmable Controller, the 710 Fone Link,
etc., for the end user.
• Included with the RC68+ is a set of keypad overlays. These overlays are marked
with command names that apply to specific Xantech models. They are provided
to make it easier for the installer when setting up the system. See
Fig. 2
and
the model listings below.
• While the RC68+ will operate as a separate remote control, it is highly
recommended it not be given to the final user for the following reasons:
• Since it includes special setup codes, the user may inadvertently alter the
installer configurations.
• Also, since the user will require IR commands from other brands of equipment to control the total system,
in addition to those of the RC68+, all commands should be consolidated into one learning device, for ease
of use.
THE RC68+ OVERLAY SYSTEM
• The RC68+ base unit comes with a permanently attached keypad overlay (A) with lettering that identifies
the commands for operation of the model ZPR68 and other models with similar commands.
• Additional temporary overlays are included for use with
Xantech models that differ greatly from the ZPR68.
• The overlays are simply placed over the RC68+ keys, as
needed. Use the overlay that corresponds to the Xantech
model or models you are working with, as listed below.
