Applicable RC68+ Button Descriptions

CAUTION: While the RC68+ can be used as a handheld remote control, it is highly recommended it not be given to the final user for the following reasons:

•Since it includes adjustable code groups, 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 680-10, all commands should be consolidated into one learning device, for ease of use.

Outlet Numbers (1 through 6).

These numbers identify the row of button commands that apply to each AC Outlet on the 680-10.

Code Group Numbers.

The 680-10 is capable of being set to 30 different IR code groups. The code groups are identified by the numbers and letters that are on the face of each button.

NOTE: When shipped from the factory, the 680-10 is set to code group number 88. Be sure to set the RC68+ to the same number!

It may be necessary to change the 680-10 to a different code group if it is used in a common IR bus controlled system with other Xantech 680-10's, to avoid mutual interaction. Refer to the RC68+ instructions for code group setting details and procedures!

Outlet Command Modes.

Depending on the installation, you may want to have the 680-10 respond to IR commands in different ways. The basic modes of operation for each outlet on the 680-10 are as follows:

OFF -Turns the power OFF to the selected outlet. ON - Turns the power ON to the selected outlet.

These dedicated OFF and ON commands are helpful when sending power commands "blind" from secondary rooms when you have no visual aid for status.

TGL - (Toggle Mode) - Switches power ON to the selected outlet when the TGL command is sent and OFF when it is sent again. If the outlet is ON, it will turn OFF-- if it is OFF it will turn ON when the code is sent.

MMT- (Momentary Mode) - Turns the selected outlet ON when the code is sent. The ON condition remains only as long as the MMT code is being sent. The outlet is normally OFF.

GP-ON(Group ON). - This button (labeled F8 on the button face) causes the 680-10 to turn all 6 AC outlets ON at the same time. GP-ON overrides all individual settings.
