5. ترتیب کول

5.1. پورته کول

The RC-4A supports DIN Rail Mount. Secure the controller in a suitable location, ensuring adequate ventilation and access to wiring terminals.

5.2. د تارونو نښلول

1. د بریښنا پیوستون: Connect the appropriate power supply to the RC-4A's power input. Ensure the power source matches the device's requirements (voltage/اوسنی).
2. د شبکې پیوستون: Connect an Ethernet cable from your network switch or router to the RC-4A's network port. The device will obtain an IP address via DHCP by default.
3. د اړیکو اړیکې: For each of the four relays, connect your external devices (e.g., door strikes, gates, lights) to the Normally Open (NO), Normally Closed (NC), and Common (C) terminals as required by your application. The relays are rated for 4 Amps.
4. Sensor Input Connections: Connect your contact closure sensors (e.g., door sensors, push buttons) to the four sensor input terminal strips.

5.3. Initial Network Access

Once powered and connected to the network, the RC-4A will acquire an IP address. You can typically discover its IP address using network scanning tools or by checking your router's DHCP client list. Access the web interface by entering the RC-4A's IP address into a web براوزر

The default login credentials will be required for initial access. Refer to the device's label or accompanying documentation for default username and password. It is highly recommended to change these default credentials immediately after the first login for security purposes.

6. عملیاتي لارښوونې

The RC-4A is operated primarily through its web-based interface, which provides comprehensive control and monitoring capabilities.

6.1. Web انٹرفیس ختم شوview

د ننوتلو وروسته، د web interface will display the status of all four relays and four sensor inputs. You can customize the names of relays and inputs for easier identification.

6.2. Controlling Relays

• چالان/بند کول: څخه web interface, you can manually switch each relay between its Normally Open and Normally Closed states.
• Timed Closures: Relays can be activated for a specific duration, ranging from 1 to 99 seconds. This is useful for momentary actions like unlocking a door.

6.3. Monitoring Sensor Inputs

د web interface displays the current status of each of the four contact closure inputs. This allows for real-time monitoring of connected sensors.

6.4. Email and Text Notifications

Configure the RC-4A to send email or text message notifications when a change in state is detected on one or more sensor inputs. This feature requires proper SMTP server settings to be configured within the web انٹرفیس

6.5. Remote Interaction (RC-4A to RC-4A)

Two RC-4A units can be configured to interact over the network. A change in a sensor input on one RC-4A can be programmed to trigger a specific relay on a second RC-4A. This enables distributed control and automation.

6.6. User Access Levels

The RC-4A supports two levels of user access:

• مدیر: Has full access to all operational and programming settings, including network configuration, user management, and relay/sensor settings.
• میلمه: Has limited operational control, with programmable restrictions set by the Administrator. Guests cannot modify programming or critical settings.

7. ساتنه

• د فرم ویئر تازه معلومات: په دوره یي ډول د تولید کونکي معاینه وکړئ website for firmware updates. Firmware can be updated via the web interface to ensure optimal performance and access to new features.
• پاکول: Keep the device clean and free from dust. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
• د چاپیریال شرایط: ډاډ ترلاسه کړئ چې عملیاتي چاپیریال د زیان مخنیوي لپاره د ټاکل شوي تودوخې او رطوبت حدودو کې پاتې کیږي.

8. ستونزه حل کول

• وسیله نه فعاله کیږي:

  ډاډ ترلاسه کړئ چې د بریښنا رسولو په سمه توګه وصل دی او سم حجم چمتو کويtage. Check the power outlet.

• لاسرسی نشم کولی Web انٹرفیس:

  Verify the Ethernet cable is securely connected. Check network connectivity and ensure the RC-4A has obtained an IP address. Confirm you are using the correct IP address and port (if applicable). Temporarily disable any firewall on your computer.

• Relays Not Activating:

  Check wiring connections to the external device. Ensure the relay is being commanded correctly from the web interface. Verify the external device is functioning independently.
• Sensor Inputs Not Responding:

  Check the wiring of the sensor to the input terminals. Ensure the sensor is functioning correctly and providing a valid contact closure signal.

• Email/Text Notifications Not Sending:

  Verify SMTP server settings, recipient addresses, and network access for outgoing mail. Check spam folders for notifications.
