Rako WCM-D Wired Interface Module

The Rako WCM-D is a versatile wired interface module designed to integrate conventional switches into Rako's wired lighting control systems. This innovative device allows up to eight single-way switches or buttons to be connected, providing users with a seamless way to incorporate existing or third-party hardware into their smart lighting setup. Compact and practical, the WCM-D is designed to fit within a standard UK back box, ensuring a tidy and professional installation.

High-Level Features

The WCM-D is engineered for flexibility and reliability. It translates inputs from connected switches into Rako-compatible commands, making it an excellent choice for both retrofit projects and new installations. With LED feedback functionality, users can visually confirm the status of their lighting system, enhancing user experience. This module is ideal for setups where traditional switches need to coexist with a sophisticated Rako lighting system, ensuring compatibility without sacrificing style or functionality.

Installation and Back Box Compatibility

Designed specifically to fit into a UK-standard back box, the WCM-D offers an efficient form factor for neat and unobtrusive installation. Its placement within the back box ensures a professional finish, suitable for residential and commercial applications alike. Installation and configuration are straightforward, with programming managed via Rako’s Rasoft Pro software, offering full control over switch functionality and system integration.

Comparing Related Products

For installations requiring network expansion, the Rako WA-NEX is a complementary product to the WCM-D. While the WCM-D focuses on integrating switches, the WA-NEX extends the reach of wired networks, enabling the creation of multiple linked networks to address challenges in large or complex installations.

Additionally, the Rako WAVMI offers another specialised solution. The WAVMI connects up to five mains switching signals, such as from PIR sensors, directly into the Rako wired network. Unlike the WCM-D, which interfaces with switches, the WAVMI is tailored for integrating sensor inputs, providing enhanced automation options for lighting control systems.

Conclusion

The Rako WCM-D is a dependable and flexible interface module, ideal for incorporating traditional switches into a Rako wired lighting system. With its compact design, back box compatibility, and seamless integration capabilities, it is an essential component for achieving a cohesive and efficient smart lighting setup.
