REPLACINGTHEBATTERY
1. Removethetwomountingscrewsofthelowercoverofthe
transmitter.
2. RemovethePCB.
3. Removethebatteryfromtheterminal(forexample:byusingaatscrewdriver).
4. Pressanybuttonconnectedtotransmitterinputsseveraltimes(thisistodrainanyresidualvolt-
age).
5. Installanewbattery.Mindthepolarity.Thepolarityismarkedonthebatteryclipterminal(the+
pole). CAUTION: Wrong battery polarity may damage the transmitter!
6. ReinsertthePCBintotheenclosureandscrewthelowercoverbackon.
7. Verifyproperoperation:theLEDshouldbeon,likewhentransmitting.
1. Ifpossible,maintainaminimumdistancebetweentransmittersduringinstallation.Inparticular,
avoidinstallingonetransmitteraboveanother.Insomesituations,thiscouldcauserangeloss

2. Duringinstallationmakesurethatthetransmitterisnotexposedtodirectwaterimpactoropera-
tioninahighhumidityenvironment.Thetemperatureattheinstallationsiteshouldbefrom-10
to+55°C.
3. TheRNP-22transmitter isdesignedforindoor installation.Inthecaseofoutdoorinstallation,
placethetransmitter inanadditional sealingboxandefcientlysealtheconnectionagainst
waterpenetration.
4. ConnectcontrolconnectorstoinputsIN1toIN4oftheRNP-22transmitter.Typically,theinputs
aredesignedtoworkwithmonostableconnectors.However,thedesignoftheinputsdoesnot
excludeusingbistableconnectors.Inthiscase,itisbesttoprogramtheinputswithareceiverin
monostablemode(thereceiverisactivatedaslongasthegiveninputistriggered).
5. After installing the transmitter, test it for proper operation. To obtain the target function, the
transmitter must rst be programmed with thereceiver(see the user manual ofthe selected
receiver).Toworkwiththecontroller,thetransmittermustbeproperlypairedwiththecontroller
(seeTransmitterregistrationintheEXTALIFEsystem).
STANDARD FUNCTIONALITY (WITHOUT CONTROLLER)
● enableswirelessoperationofEXTALIFEsystemreceivers,
● the function of each transmitter input depends on the type of receiver the inputs have been
pairedwith(example:ifpairedtoanROP-22receiver,theinputscanbeusedtoturnlightson
andoff;ifpairedtoanSRP-22controller,thebuttonscanopenandcloserollershutters),
● eachinputcanbeassignedtomultipleEXTALIFEsystemreceivers,
● ifoneinputistocontrolmorethanonereceiverofthesystem,thentherecommendedmodeof
operationis“on/off”mode(forexample:input“1”turnsonthereceiverandinput“2”turnsitoff),
● youcanassignthetransmitterinputstoreceiverswithdifferentoperatingmodes,therangeof
which depends on the receiver type (for details ofthe modes see the applicable EXTALIFE
receiverusermanuals),
● If transmitter inputsareassignedto a receiver in timemode,eachbutton canbeassigneda
customtimevaluefrom1sto18hours,
● youcandeletespecicinputassignmentsfromthereceivermemory.
FUNCTIONAL COMPATIBILITY WITH EXTA LIFE CONTROLLER AND APP
WiththeEFC-01controllerandapp,youcan:
● remotely(withoutaccesstothereceiver)bindspecictransmitterinputstotheselectedreceiv-
ers,
● assignselectedtransmitterinputstoplayscenes,
● assignselectedtransmitterinputsasaconditiontoexecutealogicalfunction,
● signalthetransmitterbatterylevel.
