FEATURES

With your RadioShack Plug ’N Power Wireless Remote

Control System, you can discover the convenience, com-

fort, and security of a Plug ’N Power system. You can

turn on or off all lights or appliances plugged into your

Plug ’N Power Wireless Remote Control System with the

touch of one button from anywhere inside or outside your

home. You will never have to come home to a dark house

again!

Your Wireless Remote Control System includes a remote

control and a control center module that lets you remotely

control one light or appliance. By adding modules (not

supplied), you can control up to 16 groups of lights or ap-

pliances anywhere in your home. There are several dif-

ferent types of modules — some plug into AC outlets and

others replace wall outlets or wall switches. RadioShack

carries a wide range of modules and Plug ’N Power ac-

cessories (see “Setting up Additional Modules” on

Page 13 and “Adding Other Controllers” on Page 22).

Because Plug ’N Power is a modular concept, you can

start simply and expand your system as often as you like.

With proper modules and controllers, you can remotely

control practically every electrical device in your home!

PLUG ‘N POWER PRECAUTIONS

Turning lights and appliance on and off by remote control

is a great convenience, but there can be some unexpect-

ed consequences. For example, you might unknowingly

turn on an empty coffee pot in another room, and it could

be damaged by overheating or could even start a fire.

You might also turn on an electric heater in another room

when flammable materials are close to the heater. Again,

damage or a fire could result.

To prevent such problems, carefully plan what you want

to control (as described in this manual) and keep a chart

of your system handy. You must always be aware of what

you are controlling.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Before using the product, please follow and adhere

to all warnings, safety and operating instructions

located on the product and in the owner's manual.

Save all instructions for future use.

• Do not attempt to control lights or appliances that

exceed the ratings of the modules. If you want to

control lights or appliances that exceed the ratings of

the standard modules, see your local RadioShack

store for information.

61-2576.fm Page 3 Wednesday, September 8, 1999 1:50 PM

• Use extreme care when controlling potentially dan-

gerous products as part of your Plug ’N Power sys-

tem. Use a separate unit code exclusively for such

appliances.

• If you want to control fluorescent, mercury vapor,

sodium, or low voltage lights, see your local

RadioShack store for assistance.

• Do not use Lamp Dimmer Modules to control light fix-

tures that have built-in dimmers.

• Do not use Wall Switch or 3-Way Switch Modules to

replace switches that control wall outlets or non-

lighting devices.

• The Wall Switch and Outlet Modules require direct

connection to your house wiring. If you are not famil-

iar with typical house wiring installation, we suggest

that you have these types of modules professionally

installed. In any case, be sure that the electricity is

turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse panel while

you are installing one of these modules.

• Low-voltage electricity flows through the circuit con-

trolled by a Wall Switch Module even when the switch

is off. This is necessary for proper operation of the

Wall Switch Module. You can completely turn off the

electricity by sliding the switch's disable slide switch

to off.

HOW PLUG ‘N POWER WORKS

Plug ’N Power controllers such as your Wireless Remote

Control System send high frequency signals through your

household wiring. The remote control sends radio fre-

quency signals to the control system’s receiver, which re-

transmits the signals over your house wiring to other Plug

’N Power modules.

Be sure to carefully read this manual and the instructions

that come with the modules. They are designed to help

you get the most from your Plug ’N Power system.

SETTING CODES

Two different types of codes — house codes and unit

codes — let you control many different modules or

groups of modules within your home. It is important that

you understand how these codes are used before you set

up your system.

House Code

The house code is a master code for a

Plug ’N Power system. You must set the

remote control center mode and all the

modules it controls to the same house

code. There are 16 codes to choose from

(A through P).

You can operate two or more independent Plug ’N Power

systems in your home by using a different house code for

each system. Of course, each system must have its own

controller and modules.

You can control the same modules from two or more con-

trollers by setting all the modules and controllers to the

same house code.

The different house codes also help to prevent interfer-

ence between your Plug ’N Power system and other re-

mote control systems in your neighborhood.

61-2576.fm Page 7 Wednesday, September 8, 1999 1:50 PM

Unit Code

Each Wireless Remote Control Center

can operate up to 16 different modules or

groups of modules. Every module has a

unit code dial with settings from 1 through

16. You can set the control center to con-

trol any module or group of modules set

to the same house code.

The unit code dial on the control center sets the code for

the outlet on the control center. It can be set to respond

to unit codes 1 through 16. However, the remote control

can be set to control modules 1–8 or 9–16 by setting its

slide switch accordingly. The control center will respond

to all 16 unit codes and retransmit them to the Plug ’N

Power modules.

PLACING THE CONTROL CENTER

MODULE

Because the control center’s module is a receiver and

also a transmitter, you need to consider the best location

for its installation.

If you only want to use the control center module to con-

trol something plugged into it, then connect it to an outlet

near the lamp or appliance you want to control. However,

if you want to control other Plug ’N Power modules

through the control center receiver, consider a location

where it can receive the signals from the remote control

more easily.

Some houses have aluminum-clad insulation that might

act as a barrier to radio signals, depending on where the

control center module is located. You might find that you

can activate the control center receiver from a greater

distance if you place it in your garage, which is usually

not as insulated as the rest of the house.

If your house is large, you can increase the transmitting

range by adding multiple Wireless Remote Control Sys-

tems.

PREPARATION

INSTALLING BATTERIES

Your remote control requires four AAA batteries (not sup-

plied) for power. For the best performance and longest

life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.

Cautions:

• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and rec-

ommended type.

• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of

batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or

rechargeable batteries of different capacities.

Follow these steps to install batteries.

1. Use your fingernail or another object to lift up the bat-

tery compartment cover to remove it.

2. Place the batteries in the compartment as indicated

by the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked inside.

3. Replace the cover.

When the remote control stops operating properly, re-

place the batteries.
