User manual ELK PRODUCTS ELK-9100

[. . . ] · Wire Harness: 18" wire leads, #10 AWG, MTW, stranded nickel plated copper rated for 30 Amps A. C. * Note: The ELK-9100 cannot be powered from GFCI Ground Fault Breakers. However, GFCI Breakers can be utilized on the output (load) side of the ELK-9100. * Note: The ELK-9100 is not compatible with the Leviton model 6325 Telephone Transponder due to some non-standard line signals that the Leviton transmits. ELK PRODUCTS, INC. [. . . ] RELAYS SEPARATED Each relay can be commanded separately for control of 110/120 Volts A. C. 1 (single phase) [Default] For typical residential installations 3 (3 phase) For commercial 208 Volts A. C. REPEATER YES [Default] Received X-10 signals will be transmitted onto both sides of a residential electrical system. Note: Actual signal boost is highly dependent upon the electrical system. REPEATER NO Disables the repeater functionality. J2 J3 OPERATION MANUAL CONTROL Pressing the button on the front of the ELK-9100 sends a local signal to change the state of the relay(s). As long as Jumper J1 is set to RELAYS GROUPED, both relays will toggle. If Jumper J1 is set to RELAYS SEPARATED the relays will toggle through the four possible states of ON/OFF, OFF/ON, ON/ON, OFF/OFF with each button press. CONTACT CLOSURE OPERATION The relays may also be controlled from the hardwired terminal inputs located inside the unit. In the RELAYS GROUPED operation mode, if the "Trig 1 Relay" terminals are closed together (shorted), both relays will go to the "off" state. In the RELAYS SEPARATED operation each relay is individually controlled by closure (shorting) the the appropriate trigger terminals. A relay which is hardwired triggered to be "OFF" cannot be turned ON via X-10. X-10 OPERATION The ELK-9100 has been factory programmed to respond to X-10 House Code "C" and Unit Code "16" (in grouped mode only) and can be reprogrammed by the user to respond to other House and Unit Code(s) if desired. To restore factory default C16 code, hold the On/Off switch pressed, power up the 9100, hold switch until Circuit 2 led flashes, release switch and press once more, Circuit 2 led will go out and the 9100 is now programmed for House Code "C" and Unit Code "16". Note: the same House Code must be used for both relays. PROGRAMMING THE X-10 CODES For GROUPED MODE, J1 must be set to RELAYS GROUPED. With power applied, press and hold the On/Off switch until the CIRCUIT 1 LED begins flashing. From an X-10 transmitter, send an ON signal of the desired House and Unit Code, then send an OFF signal to the same House and Unit Code. You now must send A1 ON to activate both relays (Circuit 1 & 2 On). You must send A1 OFF to deactivate both relays (Circuit 1 & 2 Off). The ELK-9100 can also be programmed to respond ONLY to a more secure double signal operation. (grouped mode only) This will significantly reduce the chance of a stray X-10 signal accidentally turning the ELK-9100 On or Off. This method requires a specific second ON or OFF signal within a time window of approximately 5 seconds. The second signal must be the same House Code but a different Unit code. [. . . ] It requires a separate 4" electrical junction and wire connectors for safely completing the installation. After disconnecting power, mount the 9100 and a 4" electrical junction box near the load. (water heater, motor, etc. ) Disconnect the existing wiring from the load and route it into the junction box. Add wiring from the junction box to the load and wire according to the diagram. [. . . ]
