1Product overview
1.1 Introduction
The DDRC-GRMS-E relay controller offers a flexible, low cost solution for networked guest room automation. The
controller enables a room’s look and feel to adapt as guests enter and leave the room, and allows them to easily
control all room functions.
GRMS relay controllers are designed to manage all controls within a hotel room, responding to inputs from
sensors, user interfaces and third-party property management systems (PMS), as well as managing the switching
of lights, General Power Outlets (GPOs), HVAC systems, and motorized blinds. It includes DMX control of colored
lights and switching control of LED room status indicators via the digital outputs. Additionally, the controller’s 18
dry contact inputs provide an interface with third party user interfaces and sensors in the room.
This controller is a self-contained unit and includes its own power supply, relays, processor and Ethernet bridge.
It is a network device, able to communicate with Dynalite software and devices via DyNet over RS-485 or TCP/IP.
1.2 Features
The DDRC-GRMS-E relay controller includes the following features:
•Standalone or networked operation
•Power relays that can disconnect power to the room’s General Power Outlets and air conditioning when
the room is unoccupied
•Pre-programmed functions for common scenarios such as Room Occupied/Unoccupied
•Directional control for motorized blind operation
•Default factory configuration linking dry contact inputs and control channel outputs to cover all basic
guest room requirements
Configuration options are explained in Chapter 2 of this guide, and custom pre-configuration is available from
Dynalite prior to shipping.

1.3 Service Switch
The service switch has the following functions:
•One press: Signs on to the DyNet network
•Three presses: Sets all channels to 100%
•Press and hold for 4+ seconds: Resets the device on release of the button.
1.4 Service LED
The service LED on the controller indicates the following:
•Slow blink: The device is operating normally
•Quick blink: The network is busy
•Continuously lit: The device is faulty.
1.5 DIP switch addressing
In a fully networked installation, each controller on a floor requires a unique address to allow for both centralized
monitoring and autonomous control of each room. Controllers can be pre-configured with a default room
template, then set to a unique room address during installation by adjusting the DIP switches on the underside of
the device.
The DDRC-GRMS-E has two sets of DIP switches. At the time of writing, only the ID1 switches are used.
The room address is determined by the total value of all
ON switches. This example shows the ID1 DIP switch
setting for 209 (1 + 16 + 64 + 128).
The room address sets the box number of the controller,
and acts as an offset for the logical areas and box
numbers of devices on the DyNet RS-485 spur.
Note that a network gateway for each floor adds a further
‘floor offset’ to each controller’s box number and area.
For more information, refer to the Interact Hospitality
Commissioning Guide.

1.6 Guest room example
The plan below is an example of a guest room installation.
1. Bedside lamps / button panels
2. Room lighting
3. Corridor/Entrance lighting
4. Bathroom lighting / button panel
5. Keycard slot / master button panel
6. Room status indicator
7. HVAC
8. Motorized blinds
9. General Power Outlets (GPO)
This plan shows a typical guest room layout with lights, button panels, blinds and General Power Outlets. The
controller is designed to manage all of these inputs and outputs, as well as offering the flexibility to handle
custom room configurations and requirements.
The controller has 18 dry contact inputs that are used to trigger different pre-programmed functions. These inputs
are triggered by momentary switches or voltage-free button presses.
In the example above, the keycard slot signals the occupancy state of the room. The master and bedside button
panels control the corridor and overall room lighting. A bathroom button panel controls the bathroom lighting.

2Commissioning in System Builder (SB)
Commissioning is generally not required, as the controller’s factory default configuration covers the vast majority
of basic guest room scenarios. However, the controller’s functionality can be customized to meet specialized site
requirements.
2.1 Adding a controller to SB
Add the controller to your SB project using one of the following two methods:
Insert Device From Network - The controller sends a sign-on message to the network when it is powered on.
To resend the sign-on message, press the Service Switch button on the front of the device once.
Insert Device From List – You can add the controller to a project in SB and configure it for precommissioning
before connecting the physical device to the system.
When connected, use the Save To Device... and Load From Device... buttons to copy configuration data
between SB and the controller.
Once the device has been added to the project, it is displayed in the Network View and Physical View editors, and
can be configured in SB.
Refer to the System Builder Quick Start Guide for more information.
2.2 Copy/Paste
To create a new controller with identical properties, select the controller, press Ctrl-C to copy and then Ctrl-V to
paste. A dialog box opens, prompting for confirmation. Tick the Include task data checkbox to copy any
custom tasks to the new controller, otherwise it will be created with the default task list. Click the Yes button to
create the new controller with the same configuration as the original.
You can also copy the properties of one controller to another of the same model. Copy as above, then select the
second device before pasting. When prompted to paste the properties of the copied device to the matching
selected device, click Yes. This overwrites the properties of the selected device. If the selected device model does
not match the copied device, this option is unavailable.
