RC68 PROGRAMMER / REMOTE CONTROL
The RC68+ (or RC68) Programmer (available separately) contains all the commands necessary to operate
the RT16-10 (see Fig. 3).
You will need it to program universal learning devices such as the Xantech URC-1 learning remote, the
Xantech Smart Pads, the 590 Programmable Controller, the 710 Fone Link, etc., with commands that
operate the RT16-10.
NOTE: The RC68+ codes operate several other Xantech models as well, such as the RS41AV, CC12,
ZPR68, etc. Therefore, only the button descriptions that apply to the operation of the RT16-10 are
listed. All others should be ignored.
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 RT16-10, all commands should be consolidated into one learning device, for
ease of use.
APPLICABLE RC68+ BUTTON DESCRIPTIONS
(use "C" overlay, Fig.3)
Routing Commands (1 through 16).
The IR commands from these buttons cause the RT16-10 to route commands to any of the 16
corresponding IR outputs. For example, pressing button 5 (labeled 00 on the button face) on the RC68+
will cause the RT16-10 to route the IR signal through to the number 5 output.
GP-ON (group ON).
This button (labeled 60 on the button face) causes the RT16-10 to route IR commands to all 16 outputs
at the same time.
GP-OFF (group OFF).
This button (labeled 88 on the button face) causes the RT16-10 to shut off all (or any smaller group of one
or more) of the 16 outputs.
Code Group Numbers.
The RT16-10 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 RT16-10 is set to code group number 70.
Be sure to set the RC68+ to the same number!
It may be necessary to change the RT16-10 to a different code group if it is used in a common IR bus
controlled system with other Xantech RT16-10's, to avoid mutual interaction.
Refer to the RC68 instructions for code group setting details and procedures!
IR ROUTING MODES
The RT16-10 has the ability to direct IR control signals to any one of the 16 output ports, any combination
of ports, or all 16 as a group as follows:
1. Single Routing
An IR route to a single port (1 through 16) occurs when a corre-
sponding RC68+ Hand Held Programmer code is sent. It remains
on until a different routing command is sent or when the GP-OFF
(group off) code is sent. This allows any individually selected port
to be driven with a control signal separate from the others.
