TheRMR-VFisa10-wayvoltfreeinterface programmable via Rasoft Pro using a programming device such as a RAMPIorHUB. Each input can be programmed to its own Room and Channel, and each input has two states, ‘on make’ and ‘on break’ which can be configured to trigger a command for each state that the switch is in. Example: OnMake=Scene1 OnBreak=Off 2Inputs UptoteninputscanbeusedontheRMR-VF,iftheinputsarefully populated it is recommendedtouseallthreecommoninputstoavoidexceedingtheinputterminal capacities.

4ProgrammingtheRMR-VF Before the RMR-VF can function, it has to be programmed via Rasoft Pro using a programming device such as the RAMPI or HUB. Thefollowing steps assume: - AProject File has been created. - Roomshavebeencreated. - TheHUBhasbeenconfigured. - TheChannels in the Rooms have been labelled. If the above has not been done, refer to the Wireless Module Programming Guide before continuing. 4.1 Assigning the RMR-VF - Select “File” - “New device” to bring up the “New device Wizard” - Select “RMR-VF” and then select “Next”.

- Chooseadescriptive name for the Device and select “Next” - Associate the RMR-VF with a Room using the drop-down menu, leave “Associate to Channel” as it is and select “Next” - Put the RMR-VF into Setup Mode by pressing and holding the setup button on the unit for 3-4 seconds. - OncetheRMR-VFhasenteredSetupMode,theblueLEDontheunitwillblink periodically, select ‘Device is in Setup’, then ‘Finish’ RMR-VF Manual Version 2.2.0

To get to the RMR-VF configuration page, select it in the Device List as seen in the previous step. 4.2.1 The Mapping Section All programmed inputs for the Device must first have a mapping. The purpose of a mappingis to program an input to perform a specific command. Each input has its own letter to represent its input; the RMR-VF has up to 10 inputs. Newmappingscanbecreatedbyselectingadisabledfieldandselecting the corresponding input letter in the next column. RMR-VF Manual Version 2.2.0

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 4.2.2 Inputs Theinputs for the mappings are configured in the Inputs section. Whenaninputishighlighted blue, it will set the corresponding input letter active in the mapping, selecting the input multiple times will cycle through the input options which are “Normal”, “Ignore” and “Invert”, an example can be seen below: ‘A - Normal’ creates a mapping for input A, ensure that only one input is highlighted blue for each mapping. If A is set as ‘Invert’, the ‘On Make’ and ‘On Break’ commands will reverse. 4.2.3 Mapping Options Oncetheinputhasbeenselectedandconfigured,thebehaviouroftheinput is set up in the Mapping Options.

Trigger on Make Whentheswitchinput makes contact, trigger the output command. Trigger on Break Whenaswitchbreaksits contact, trigger the output command. SendStopOnRelease Whenthemadecontactisreleased, a ‘Stop’ command will be triggered. Trigger on Press Trigger the output command when the momentary switching makes contact between its input and common. Trigger on Release Trigger the output command when the momentary switch breaks contact between its input andcommon. Don't update previous room If this box is ticked this map will not update the “last used” flag for both Room and Channel. When a “last used” is sent from this Device the most recent room and Channel sent which doesn't have “don't update previous Room” selected will be sent. Set Scenes only if lights are OFF: Thecommandsentinthe“outputaction”section is a scene that will only take effect if the lights are currently off. This is often used when the device interfacing with the RMR-VF is a presence sensor. RMR-VF Manual Version 2.2.0
