SCREW TERMINALS

Opto-Isolator Inputs - 16 pairs of positive and negative terminals, isolated from ground.

O - Infrared Output - Positive terminal for the IR output signal.

G - Ground - Negative terminal for the IR output signal.

The "O" and "G" terminals drive IR emitters directly or the IR input of Xantech connecting blocks, IR routers, interface modules, etc.

12VDC - 12 volts output, positive & negative terminals.

INPUTS

A decision as to the type of external input(s) must be made. Figs. 1 & 2 show some examples. The LED inside each opto-isolator within the 590 must pass current in order for the unit to recognize an input. This is accomplished by applying a momentary 5 to 30 volts DC input to these 16 circuits. While many types of switch closures to do this are possible, we will discuss only one for simplicity, the Model 598 key pad. Fig. 1 shows the 598 providing contact closures to activate 8 of the 16 opto-isolator inputs.

OUTPUT

The "O" and "G" terminals on the rear panel will drive IR emitters direct or the SIGNAL IN of Xantech

connecting blocks, controllers, etc. If a single model 282, 283, 284 or 286 Mini-Emitter(s) is to be used, cut

off the plug, strip the leads, and connect the wire with the white stripe to "O" and the black wire to "G". For the connection of more emitters, use Xantech Connecting Blocks model 789-44 or 791-44. In this case, connect the "O" and "G" terminals to the "INPUT" and "GROUND", respectively, on the Connecting Blocks.

The 590 output circuit has the same electrical characteristics as the infrared receivers and key pads in Xantech’s broad line of remote control extension systems and therefore can be wired as part of a larger system.

TURN IT ON

Plug the power supply into the 12VDC jack on the 590 then plug it into a wall outlet. The five red LEDs (ERROR, PROGRAM, CONFIRM, DELETE and OUTPUT) on the front of the 590 should be off. If any of them are on, unplug the power supply from the wall, wait 10 to 15 seconds and plug it in again. Repeat this process until all of the lamps are off.

PROGRAMMING

Before programming the 590, press the RES (reset) button on the rear panel. This will clear any data stored during factory testing. Do not push this button again unless you wish to erase ALL of the programming information which you have entered. There is no way to restore this information except by reprogramming.

NOTE: FOR THE SAKE OF CLARITY, EXTERNAL CONTACT CLOSURES WILL BE REFERRED TO AS "KEYS" THROUGHOUT THIS MANUAL (whether made with a push-button or a wire connected to the +12V DC terminal and held to the + terminal of the desired input. Refer to step 3 following).

Programming Procedure:

1.Press the PGM (program) button on the rear panel. The PROGRAM lamp on the front panel will light.

2.Place the "teaching" hand-held remote control two to four inches in front of the 590. Point it directly at the internal Infrared Sensor (located just above the OUTPUT LED on the 590's front panel).
