6. Actuate the enabled 200Tx input (from step 3) by shorting the input terminals (a bent paper clip is ideal!).
7. The learn cycle is now complete and the transmitter/encoder will operate the systems.
Note: It is not possible erase individual transmitters.
When used in conjunction with one or more 200Tx encoders in watchdog mode, relay 16 on the 210RX is
automatically used as the watchdog channel. With the auto Tx link in place, the unit is in watchdog mode and
the input status of enabled inputs is automatically transmitted every 3 - 6 seconds and system integrity is thus
continuously verified. For further information see the 200 Series Transmitter Module description, above.

Erasing the 210Rx Receiver Decoder’s Memory
1. To completely erase the 210Rx decoder’s memory, press and hold the 210Rx learn switch. The learn LED

Connecting an Antenna
The 210Rx has a 300mm flying lead cable (50ohm) with a panel mount BNC socket provided to mount on an
enclosure. This cable may be extended however please note that typically there is a 50% range reduction
with every 3metres of coax cable used!
For increasing range performance a +3dB gain antenna is available. This is supplied with wall mounting
bracket and 2metres of coax cable, it plugs in directly to the 210Rx BNC connector.
Range
The antenna choice and position directly controls the system range. Keep it clear of other metal in the system.
The best position by far, is protruding from the top of the product. This is often not desirable for practical or
ergonomic reasons and thus a compromise may be needed. If an internal antenna must be used then try to
keep it away from other metal items, and in particular large ones like transformers, batteries and PCB tracks
and earth planes.
Note that the space around the antenna is as important as the antenna itself. All radio systems are dependant
on a radio signal being received through airspace.
The range quoted is the optimal in direct line of sight without obstacles and in good atmospheric conditions.
Range is affected by many things, e.g. local environmental conditions, atmospheric conditions, interference
from other radio transmitters. For evaluating the local environment please see our RF Meter (DS006)
In very worse case applications the range quoted may be reduced to 30% of the optimal range stated.
Signal integrity
In systems where many encoders are in close proximity there may be occasions when, due to signal overlay
between encoders, it is difficult or impossible to guarantee system integrity. In such circumsstances it is the
responsibility of the installer to ensure that the system performance is adequate for the purposes of the
installation.
