5. SETTING UP THE SBC RU880 FOR YOUR PHILIPS POWER CONTROL SYSTEM

5.1USING THE SBC RU 880 TOGETHER WITH YOUR PHILIPS POWER CONTROL SYSTEM

The SBC RU880 is ready for controlling a Philips Power Control System. This innovative system (comprising a range of switches and remote controls) allows you to control electrical appliances in and around your home using radio- frequency (RF) operated remote controls. Each Power Control system has its own house code to prevent interference with a neighbour’s system.

Quick Reference

Caution: Before connecting any appliance to a Power switch check the appliances’ power consumption. These Power switches can control appliances with a maximum power rating of 1000 Watts!

NOTE: The house code’s default setting is A.

1Connect the Power switches to mains power outlets.

2Select the appliances, e.g. lamps, you want to control and plug them into the Power switches.

If the appliance has its own ON/OFF switch, make sure it is switched on.

Use the SBC RU880 to operate the appliances as follows:

1Select the HOME mode key.

–The last selected appliance is displayed (for example, UNIT1).

2 Select your module using the 10-digit keypad.

–The LCD displays UNIT X (for example, UNIT 3).

NOTE: Although the unit code on the Power switch can be set from 1 to 16, the remote control can only operate Power switches with unit code set from 1 to 10.

5.2 SETTING UP THE SBC RU880 FOR DIFFERENT HOUSE CODES.

The Power Control system’s house code prevents interference with a similar system in your neighbour’s house. Power Control Systems only respond to signals with the correct house code. The house code's default setting is A.

To change the house code:

Verify that the house code already is installed. Look at the house code selection wheel at the rear of the switches (A-P). If you want to change the house code turn this wheel with a screwdriver.

NOTE: Ensure that the house code you have selected for the remote control and all Power switches is the same!

Look at the code list at the back of this book under Power Control to find the first three-digit code for your house code.
