TheRK-EOS-6isasix-button Wireless keypad used in a Rako Wireless system. Each button on the RK-EOS-6 can be configured via Rasoft Pro to transmit commands to multiple Rooms, providing additional flexibility for switch locations that may require multiple Rooms, such as on staircases or open-plan areas. TheRK-EOS-6istheprogrammablesection and the RP-EOS-60-XX is the cover plate and mounting kit which form the front buttons, therefore the RP-EOS-60-XX must be used in conjunction with the RK-EOS-6. 2ProgrammingtheRK-EOS-6 Before the RK-EOS-6 can be installed, it needs to be configured in Rasoft Pro using either a RAMPIoraHUB. 2.1 Using a HUB Similar to the RAMPI, the HUB has built-in NFC programming functionality, if the HUB has not yet been set up, see A1.2 HUB. - To begin the setup process, ensure you are connected to the HUB in the communication Devices in Rasoft Pro, and that the HUB has been configured. - Place the RK-EOS-6 on the top, middle section of the HUB.

- WhentheDeviceiscorrectly positioned, a green LED will show on the HUB, and a windowwill pop up in Rasoft Pro. - Give the Device a suitable name so that it is identifiable in the software. - Select the local Room for the Device. After the initial setup, the RK-EOS-6 will behave like an RCM with dip switches set to this Room. NB It is important to set the Room at this stage. If “Assign later” is selected, then the RK-EOS-6 will not be programmed and will be added as a virtual Device - Select Finish on the next page to complete the setup. The HUB will need to upload to the RK-EOS-6 at this stage. RK-EOS-6 Manual Version 2.0.0

2.2 Using a RAMPI Unlike the RCM, the RK-EOS-6 must be programmed using Rasoft Pro software, a RAMPI or a HUBis required to do this. First, ensure that the RAMPI is connected to Rasoft Pro in the communication window (see A1.1 RAMPI). - To begin the setup process, place the RAMPI on the RK-EOS-6 and ensure no metallic cover plates are fixed to the Device. - WhentheRK-EOS-6iscorrectly positioned, a green LED will flash in the RAMPI, and a window will pop up in Rasoft Pro. - Give the RK-EOS-6 a suitable name so that it is identifiable in the software. - Select the local Room for the Device. After the initial setup, the RK-EOS-6 will behave like an RCM with dip switches set to this Room. NB It is important to set the Room at this stage. If “Assign later” is selected, then the RK-EOS-6 will not be programmed and will be added as a virtual Device - Select Finish on the next page to complete the setup. The RAMPI will need to upload to the RK-EOS-6 at this stage. 2.3 Configuring an RK-EOS-6 OncesetupinRasoftPro, the RK-EOS-6 will use default Rooms. Thebutton mapping screen for the RK-EOS-6 can be accessed by selecting it in the Device list; this will open the Device Editor for the RK-EOS-6 Device. RK-EOS-6 Manual Version 2.0.0

To apply a template to an RK-EOS-6: - In the button mapping tab of the Device editor, scroll to the bottom to view the templates menu. Thetemplates section will vary depending on the RK-EOS-6 - Select the relevant template and click Load Template. This will open a pop-up box; select yes to overwrite the mapping with the template - Themappingsforthis template will now appear in the left tile of the Device editor - Click “save for upload” at the bottom of the page to upload these settings onto the RK-EOS-6. - At this point, a progress bar will appear on the screen.

2.3.2 The Mapping Section All programmed inputs for the RK-EOS-6 must first have a mapping. The purpose of a mappingis to program a button to perform a specific command. Each input has its own letter to represent its input; the RK-EOS-6 has 6 inputs.

Active mappings can be copied or pasted into disabled mappings; this is typically used whenre-using similar functions of an existing mapping to save time, such as a toggle function. Mappingright-click options NB Ensure only a single letter is used for each mapping, otherwise, the mapping will not function unless all inputs are pressed at the same time. 2.3.3 Keypad layout Theinputs for the mappings are selected in the Keypad layout section, as well as additional input options: Function Description SendStopOnRelease Whenthebuttonisreleased, a ‘Stop’ command will be triggered. Trigger on press Trigger the output command when the button is pressed. Trigger on release Trigger the output command when the button is released. 2.3.4 Button action Theoutput actions of the buttons inputs are set up in the button action section, the following options are available: Function Description Room TheRoomnumberoftheoutputcommand.

Toggle TheTogglefunction will alternate between two commands, either a Level command andOff, or a Scene command and Off. NB DonotmapmorethanoneToggletoa single button on the inputs; this will result in sporadic switching due to toggles getting out of sync. Level Sets the lighting Level to a percentage of brightness between 0-100%. Tunable White Set the temperature output.

3Installing the RK-EOS-6 with RP-EOS-60-XX Installation should only be carried out by a competent electrician. RK-EOS-6modulesshouldbemountedindryareasonly. Metalbackboxeswill reduce the transmission distance; to mitigate this, it is recommended to drill out of the backbox and into the wall. TheRK-EOS-6isabattery-powereddevice; it must be accessible for battery replacement. TheRP-EOS-60isrequiredtomounttheRK-EOS-6intoa backbox, ensure that the unit has been configured before installing the unit. Install and prepare the back-box. Step 1 NB It is advised that at least a 35mm backbox is used. Screw the grid provided with the Step 2 RP-EOS-60 into the backbox. Insert the RK-EOS-6 into the grid Step 3 NB It is not possible to program the RK-EOS-6 once inserted into the grid. Clip the face plate to the grid to Step 4 complete installation.
