Mode of operation
The wireless G8x86 44xx 703
switches are programmed as
standard Fuga/Opus switches
(but with no channel coding
for (I/O 5-8, as the leds auto-
matically follow the buttons).
The communication between
the G8x86 44xx 703 wireless
switch and the G3486 0058
230 base is established in the
following way:
The used Dupline adresses of
wireless devices are all pro-
grammed at the wireless
device. The only "special"
interaction regarding wireless
devices is the association
process.
This process makes sure that
your wireless devices are not
disturbed by the devices of
your neighbour.
To associate a device with the
base:
1) Press the "mode" button
on the base. The association
led lights up.
2) Press a button on the wire-
less device to be associated.
- All leds on the device will
light up for about 1 second.
3) Press the "mode" button
on the base unit until both
Association and disabled-leds
are off. This indicates "normal
operation".
If the connection from a wire-
less device fails, alle leds will
flash briefly after trying to
communicate with the base
unit three times.
If a device associated with
base A is in sight of bases A
and B and you want to reas-
sociate the device with base
B, do the following:
1) Select the "Disabled" mode
on base A.
2) Select the "Associate"
mode on base B.
3) Press a button on the wire-
less device to be associated.
- All leds on the device will
light up for about 1 second.
4) Press the "mode" button
on both base units until both
Association and disabled-leds
are off. This indicates "normal
operation".
The LEDs:
The "Power" LED indicates
that the unit is powered.
(230Vac)
The "Dupline OK" LED indi-
cates detected Dupline signal.
The "RF" LED indicates
received wireless communi-
cation directed to this base.
The "Associate" LED indi-
cates the association mode.
The "Disabled" LED indicates
that the base ignores any
wireless communications.
