F&Wave is a family of wireless devices controlled by radio with a range of up to 100
meters*. The receivers are available in either a DIN-rail mounting version (housing
1S) or a ø60 flush-mounted version. The transmitters are available as handheld remo-
te controllers or as a flush-mounted version. The receivers relay control signals. The
device that receives a control signal from the transmitter will automatically send it
forward, which allows to increase the range of the remote control.
* Range of up to 100 meters in open space without any interfering factors. In building conditions and in the presence of
interference sources (power lines, transmitters, etc.) the actual range may be smaller.

Installation of this device should be carried out by a qualified installer after re-
ading this manual. Dismantling the casing of the device will automatically void
the warranty. Before starting the assembly, make sure that the connecting
wires are not live. Conditions of storage, transport and use affect the proper
operation of the device.

Pairing

After you successfully connect the receiver, press
and hold the PROG button until the device switches
on the output circuit and the communication LED
goes off.
Press the selected button connected to the flush-
-mounted transmitter.
If the pairing is correct, the output circuit will be momentary switched off
and the LED in the receiver will switch on again.
Exit from the programming mode of the receiver occurs automatically after
30 seconds of waiting for a signal from the transmitter or by briefly pressing
the PROG button.
Unpairing
Unpairing of the flush-mounted transmitter from the receiver is only possible by cle-
aring the list of all transmitters in the receiver. To clear the list of transmitters coopera-
ting with the receiver, press and hold the PROG button for a minimum of 10 seconds.
Fast flashing of the communication LED indicates that the memory of the controller is
cleared.

C BIS BIS BIS BIS
D ON OFF S3 S4
The functions performed by the inputs depend on the type of buttons connected and
the type of receiver to be controlled.
Buttons can be connected to the transmitter:
monostable (momentary) enabling the realisation of S1, S2, S3, S4, ON and OFF
modes.
bistable (2-position) enabling the realisation of the BIS mode.
Function S1, S2, S3, S4
Briefly pressing the monostable button will:
switching on/off the relay receiver (*),
raise/lower the roller shutter (*),
switching on/off the light in the light dimmers.
A long press on the monostable button will:
raise/lower the roller shutter for the time the button is pressed,
decrease/increase the brightness level in the lighting dimmers.
ON function
A short press on the monostable button will:
switching on the relay receiver (*),
raising the roller shutter on roller shutter controllers (*),
switching on the light in lighting dimmers.
The ON mode can be used to force a group of receivers to be switched on simultaneously.
(*) In the case of multifunction receivers, the action of the button may additionally depend on the selected
programme of operation of the receiver.

OFF function
A short press on the monostable button will:
switching off the relay receiver (*),
lowering a roller shutter on roller shutter controllers (*),
switching off the light in lighting dimmers.
The OFF mode can be used to force a group of receivers off at the same time.
BIS function
This mode is recommended when bistable pushbuttons are connected. When the-
button is switched on, an ON command is sent, when the pushbutton is pressed, this
command will be repeated additionally every approx. 60 s. When the pushbutton is
switched off, the OFF command is sent, when the pushbutton is off, this command
will be repeated approximately every 60 s. This solution is dedicated to cases where a
receiver (or a group of receivers) is to be switched on for a (potentially long) time when
the button is pressed, e.g. for remote control of circulating pumps or fans.
Due to the nature of transmission and retransmission it is not recommended
to use the same button on the transmitter more often than every 2 seconds.
Switching the receiver may occur with a slight delay.
It is not recommended to use remote bi-stable transmitters to control a group
of receivers due to the risk of the switching status desynchronization (espe-
cially when working with larger distances and/or simultaneous use of the local
buttons on the receivers).
(*) In the case of multifunction receivers, the action of the button may additionally depend on the selected
programme of operation of the receiver.
