QUARTZ DIGITAL RADIO CONTROL WITH PROGRAMMABLE CODE S38-S38C
Description
The S38/C Radio control system consists of one or more transmitters and one or more receivers which can be
combined to meet the specific needs of the client. The elevated number of possible channels in one appliance
(up to 8 in the standard model) and the number of possible user code combinations (16384 per appliance set by
14 way dip-switches) make it one of the most versatile and reliable systems.

8-channel outdoor receivers IP55 (fig. 1)
The receiver is in an outdoor case fitted with a 20-way terminal board (printed circuit CS1306A/B) with the fol-
lowing electrical connections:
12V ac/dc between binding posts 17-18 with jumper "J1" in position "B"
24V ac/dc between binding posts 17-18 with jumper "J1" in position "A"
4-channel outdoor receivers IP55 (fig. 2)
The receiver is in an outdoor case fitted with a 14-way terminal board (printed circuit CS1268A/B) with the fol-
lowing electrical connections:
12V ac/dc between binding posts 11-12
24V ac/dc between binding posts 10-12
The case type receiver is fitted using "fast-fitting" brackets. The bracket should be fixed to the wall using two raw
plugs (check that it is in square). After connecting the wiring the case should be slid 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 with container the interchangeable channel modules can only have the following configurations
and must not be mixed:
- from 1 to 4 impulsive relay strips MDC038200 (only for RDQ03880C)
- from 1 to 4 impulsive relay strips MCC4491R0
- one ON-OFF relay strip MCC0381M0
- one timer relay strip MCC0381T0
Slot-in receiver card (fig. 3)
Warning! The receiver cards must be sufficiently insulated from the parts of the host device which are powered
by the mains.
- The receiver card (printed circuit CS1293A/B) is inserted directly into an appliance which is designed to receive
and has the following electrical connections:
12V ac/dc with jumper "J1" in position "B"
24V ac/dc with jumper "J1" in position "A"
The receiver cards are fitted with two relays, the outputs of which are marked CH1 (normally open contact) and
CH2 (normally open/normally closed contact). The relays CH1 and CH2 can be activated by selecting the functions
A-B-C-D and made to correspond with the transmitter channels CHA-CHB-CHC-CHD by setting the jumpers
situated on the circuit board (see fig. 3).
Mini receivers IP20 (fig. 4)
The mini receiver (CS1293A/B) is housed in an indoor container, it is fitted with an 8-way terminal board and has
the following electrical connections, 24 Vac/dc between binding posts 5-6.
The receiver cards are fitted with two relays, the outputs of which are marked CH1 and CH2 (normally open contacts).
The relays CH1 and CH2 can be activated by selecting the functions A-B-C-D and made to correspond with the
transmitter channels CHA-CHB-CHC-CHD by setting the jumpers situated on the circuit board (see fig. 4).
Receiver antenna installation
Minimum and maximum range of the radio controls. 'Range' is intended to mean the working distance, measured in
free space, between the receiver and the transmitter with the antenna installed. The range is therefore closely linked
to the technical characteristics of the system (power and sensibility) and varies according to the characteristics of
the site in which the system is located. It therefore follows that to obtain the best results from the radio control the
installation sites for the receiver and the antenna should be carefully chosen. It is not possible to install 2 receivers
at a distance of less than 1.5 m from each other. It is good practise to position the receiver away from computer
systems, alarm systems and other possible sources of disturbance.
(A bad choice of positioning could compromise the performance of the receiver).
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:
- Only use a tuned antenna connected to the receiver using a coaxial cable RG58 (impedance 50Ω) with a
maximum length of 15 m;
- The antenna should be positioned out of doors in the highest possible point, visible and away from metal
structures.
Note: If for some particular reason it is not possible to fit an antenna, reasonable performance can be obtained
by connecting a 2,5 m piece of single pole conductor wire (Ø1 mm) to the receiver.

The S38 series conforms to the essential requirements of the directive 99/05/CE and
the technical reference standards have been applied. This product has been tried and
tested in the manufacturer's laboratory, during the installation of the product follow
the supplied indications carefully.
PROGRAMMING THE USER CODE
The transmitters and receivers are supplied with a block of DIP-SWITCHES (ON/OFF) with which to program
the digital codes for each system. Programming can be carried out more than once, even after the installation,
thus ensuring the total secrecy of the user code.
A 14 way DIP-SWITCH with 16384 combinations is available for the programming of the receiver and trans-
mitter user codes in the 1 to 4 channel versions.
The use of transmitters with 8 keys allows the programming of the code in 4 to 8 channel receivers through
a 13 way DIP-SWITCH with 8192 combinations.
To ensure an exact match between the transmitter and receiver codes, when programming, the following
possibilities should be taken into consideration.
1) 2 and 4 key transmitters coupled with receivers with up to 4 channels.
Set the the same code in both the receiver and the transmitter using all the available DIPS (16384 possible
combinations).
2) 8-key transmitters coupled with receivers with up to 8 channels.
Set the the same code in both the receiver and the transmitter using all the available DIPS (8192 possible
combinations).
3) 2 and 4 key transmitters coupled with receivers with up to 8 channels.
Set the transmitter code using the first 13 of the 14 available DIPS (8192 possible combinations); Dip
number 14 is used to set the transmitter to either the first function group (14 ON = A,B,C,D) or the second
function group (14 OFF = E,F,G,H).
4) 8 key transmitters coupled with receivers with from 1 to 4 channels.
Set the transmitter code using 13 available DIPS. Set the same code in the receiver using the first 13 the
of the 14 available ; Dip number 14 is used to set the receiver to either the first function group (14 ON =
A,B,C,D) or the second function group (14 OFF = E,F,G,H).
It is important to remember that the receivers can only respond to one command at a time.
IT FOLLOWS THEREFORE THAT MULTIPLE FUNCTIONS CANNOT BE USED CONTEMPORANE-
OUSLY.
RADIO CONTROL FUNCTIONS (fig. 6, 7, 8)
Function "A" of the two-button transmitter must always correspond to function "A" of the receiver. For ease of
identification we have divided the eight functions possible on an 8-channel transmitter into two groups:
1
group: functions A,B,C,D.
st
2
group: functions E,F,G,H.
nd
The 8 key transmitters as well as the receivers with up to 8 channels (4 strips with two relays each) allow the
use of functions belonging to both groups.
The 2 and 4 key transmitters as well the receivers with up to 4 channels (4 strips with one relay each) use
either only functions from the first group or only functions from the second group. To choose between the
two groups set the DIP switch nr. 14 as follows:
14 ON = Enables the functions of group one (A,B,C,D).
14 OFF = Enables the functions of group two (E,F,G,H).
TRANSMITTERS
In the transmitters each key corresponds to a different function, with the sole exception of the two key trans-
mitters where it is possible to have the same function for both keys. (single-channel operation).
For double-channel operation which can be obtained using the second key, set the two-way dip-switch, located
separately from the fourteen-way user code dip-switch on the printed circuit board (see fig. 6,7,8).
RECEIVERS (fig. 1, 2, 3, 4)
In the receivers the channel functions are printed on the circuit board in silk-screen form. The interchangeable
slot-in STRIPS can therefore be inserted in the desired position.The characteristics of the different types of
receiver are as follows.
The Led PW (figures 1, 2) will light up when the electronic card is receiving power.
• Receivers with up to 8 channels (fig. 1)
Factory set for the insertion of four STRIPS with two relays each, this receiver has access to all the functions
of both the first and the second group.
- If the receiver is coupled with an 8 key transmitter It will be enough to move or insert one or more strips
into the position which corresponds to the desired function:
- If instead, the receiver is coupled with a 2 or 4 key transmitter then it will be necessary to decide for which
group of functions each transmitter should be set using dip switch 14 on the transmitters and then set the
strips so that they correspond to the desired functions.
Take for example one receiver with 8 channels, controlled by two 4 channel transmitters. One transmitter
will have to be set for the first group (A,B,C,D = 14 on) and the other will have to be set for the second
group (E,F,G,H = 14 OFF).
• 1 to 4 channel receiver (fig. 2)
Factory set for the insertion of four STRIPS with one relay each or either one ON-OFF or timer
module.
- If the receiver is coupled with a four key transmitter the user code in the receiver and transmitter will ensure
access to the correct function group. It is enough therefore to move or insert one or more strips into the
position which corresponds to the desired function.
- If instead, the receiver is coupled with an 8 key transmitter then it will be necessary to set dip switch 14 in
order to enable the functions of group one or group two as the case may be and then move or insert one
or more strips into the position which corresponds to the desired function.
Take for example 2 receivers with 4 channels each, controlled by an 8 channel transmitter. As the transmitter
can use functions from both groups whilst the receivers can only use functions from one group one of the
receivers will have to be set for the first group (A,B,C,D = 14 on) and the other will have to be set for the
second group (E,F,G,H = 14 OFF). After having set the receivers insert the STRIPS as described above.
• 2-channel slot-in receiver cards and "Mini" receivers (fig. 3, 4)
This receiver has access to the functions of the first group (A,B,C,D) with DIP switch 14 ON or access to
the second group (E,F,G,H) with DIP switch 14 OFF. Select the desired functions by setting the jumpers,
the indications of which are silk-screen printed on the circuit board.
- If the receiver is coupled with a four key transmitter the user code will ensure access to the correct function
group. It is enough therefore to ensure that the jumpers are set correctly and if necessary move them to
the position which corresponds to the desired function.
- If instead, the receiver is coupled with an 8 key transmitter then it will be necessary to set dip switch 14 in
order to enable the functions of group one (14 ON) or group two (14 OFF) as the case.
- Following this ensure that the jumpers are set correctly and if necessary move them to the position which
corresponds to the desired function.
