Description
The S486 Radio control system in "FM" consists of one or more transmitters and one or more receivers which can be combined
to meet the specific needs of the system. As the system use dynamic codes each code is managed individually by the receiver.
Important: The transmitted code changes for each command (rolling code). If disturbance interrupts the transmission, the
receiver will wait for a different code, the relay can then only be activated by first releasing and then pressing the transmitter
channel button again.
Use
The S486 radio control allows the remote activation of electrical and electronic appliances with its best use in the following
areas: automatic opening systems, alarm systems and multiple access systems (apartment blocks etc.) and in all systems
which require remote control activation (without wires) using secret codes.
The receiver has been designed for multiple access with UP to 1000 each of which may be memorised or cancelled individually.
Each code is stored in a memory location chosen on the display and the location can activate UP to 4 functions. 1 transmitter
= 4 functions max. = 1 location; 1000 users = 4000 functions max.

Memory module
This is extractable, furnished with a non volatile EEPROM 24C64 type memory and contains the transmitter codes. The
programmed codes are maintained in this module even in the absence of power without a time limit.
Antenna
The installation of the antenna is fundamental, connected to the receiver it represents the reception point for the radio control.
When installing the antenna the following points should be observed. A tuned antenna using a coaxial cable RG58 (impedance
50Ω) with a maximum length of 15 m. must be installed. The antenna should be positioned out of doors in the highest possible
point, visible and away from metal structures.
Transmitters
The transmitter is pre-coded and is fitted with an integrated circuit which is programmed in the factory with a unique iden-
tification number. All the code parameters are contained in this integrated circuit (external memory modules are not required)
thus making code management more reliable and the system more secure. The transmitter has an automatic shut down
mechanism which cuts in after at least 20 seconds of continuous use (this limits battery consumption).
Key block function
• A key block function has been added to protect the appliance from accidental activation;
- to activate the function press and hold down "MR" for 8 seconds until the red led starts
flashing, at this point to activate a command you will need to press the required key
three times consecutively;
- to reset the function to standard operation standard press and hold down "MR" for 8
seconds until the red led starts flashing.
Receivers
Warning! The receivers must only be powered by a safety power pack. The use of non safety power packs could provoke
damage to the system.
Outdoor receiver with display (fig. 4)
- The outdoor receiver card (printed circuit CS1127a) is fitted with an 14-way terminal board and has the following electrical
connections:
12V ac/dc between binding posts 1-2 - 24V ac/dc between binding posts 1-3.
The outdoor receiver is fitted with "fast-fitting" brackets. Fix the bracket to the wall using two rawlplugs (check that it is in
square). After connecting the wiring slide the case onto the bracket therefore fixing it to the wall. If any repair work is necessary
the case can be easily extracted by pushing upwards the action of which will separate it from the bracket.
Interchangeable channel modules
In the receivers the channel functions are printed on the circuit board. Only type MCC4861R0 relays can be used.
Attention! If the receiver is powered by "24V" you may simultaneously activate two of the four available relays plus one
impulsive relay. It follows therefore that you must pay attention to the type of function each relay has. If the receiver is
powered by "12V" there is no limitation.
Receiver functions
The following functions are managed by the PGM486 for more details consult the manual supplied with the product.
Blocking buttons: The receiver programming buttons can be disabled to prevent unauthorised use.
PIN code security: This function uses a PIN code to prevent unauthorised use of the receiver.
TRS substitution: This function allows you to replace a transmitter without opening the containe
Attention! Before memorising the transmitters for the first time remember to cancel the entire memory content.
Setting up the relays (fig. 5)
• The display type receiver S486 uses an "Impulsive" type relay that can be programmed as an "On-Off" or "Timer" relay
by the receiver. When setting UP relays the UP/DOWN/MEMO and DEL buttons have special functions.
• When the receiver switches on the firmware version will be shown. This is represented by an "r" followed by two digits
which will disappear after one second. If the palm has enabled the PIN code security function (in the receiver memory) the
flashing indication "PIN" will appear and disappear after 10 seconds. The location number "001" (fig. 5a) will now auto-
matically appear indicating that the receiver is ready to accept a command. The indications on the display are maintained
for 4 seconds after the last command was received (either via radio or using the buttons on the receiver) after which the
stand-by mode will appear; only the right hand decimal point will be lit (fig. 5b).
To program the relays proceed as follows:
1) Simultaneously press the "UP" and "DOWN" buttons (fig. 5c) and the central line on the display will light UP. If you keep
the buttons pressed DOWN for 10 seconds the symbol (fig. 5d) will appear, indicating that you have entered the relay

4) To set the timer in the "Timer relay method" (fig. 5K) press the MEMO/DEL (fig. 5m), set the desired time using the "UP"
5) To confirm the new channel settings, press the "UP" button until the symbol (fig.5p) appears on the display and then wait
6) To exit the relay programming mode without saving the changes wait for twenty seconds with anything on the display
Memorising a channel (fig. 6)
• It is possible to add new transmitters or program new functions into an already memorised transmitter at any time
- If the transmitter you wish to memorise is already present in a different memory location or the function is already
- If the receiver doesn't appear to respond to the transmitter button, wait for a few seconds (if you have a high number of

Cancelling a channel/user or entire user memory (fig. 7)
• You do not need to have the transmitter to be able to cancel. This allows you to cancel a transmitter which has been lost

ERROR CONDITIONS
• The receiver is fitted with error diagnostics. The error situations are indicated on the display by the symbol "Er" flashing
• The parameters in the memory module are wrong and the receiver will attempt to manage any eventual data it can read
• The receiver is unable to read the code memory and to preserve the data contained in the module it will block the operation
• The PIN code security data is corrupt. The receiver will be blocked because this could be the result of an attempt to
