ModelPR-318
Thank you for your purchase of a Skylink lighting receiver, Plug-In
Lighting Module with Repeater, Model PR-318. This receiver module
allows you to wirelessly turn on and off, dim and brighten different lighting
fixtures with the Skylink lighting transmitters. It also repeats signal
in order to extend the operating range.
The Plug-In Lighting Module with Repeater PR-318 can communicate
with up to 16 transmitters, so user has the option to add more transmitters
to the system, such as more remote controls, or motion sensors etc.
All wireless signal communications within the Skylink lighting system
are based on rolling code technology to ensure highest security is used.

In order to operate the Plug-In Lighting Module with Repeater remotely
with a transmitter or sensor, it must be programmed to the Plug-In Lighting
Module with Repeater. Each module can be operated by up to 16 different
transmitters (or 16 different command signals).
There are 3 operating modes with the Plug-In Lighting Module with
Repeater:
1) On / Off Mode - When a valid signal is received, it will toggle the load,
i.e. turning off or on the light
2) Flashing Mode - When a valid signal is received, the light will flash for
a specific period of time, which is the time defined in the timer duration.
This works as an alert indication.
3) Timer Mode - When a valid signal is received, the load will be on for
a specific period of time, from 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30
minutes, and 60 minutes. This is mainly for energy saving, turning lights
on only when the movement is detected (with optional motion sensor)
or when a transmitter is activated.

5. If you are programming a transmitter for On / Off operation, follow steps
A) to C). Otherwise, go to step 6.
A. Press the PROG button on the back of the TC transmitter with a sharp
object.
B. Press the button on the TC transmitter that you would like to program
into the module.
C. Once the transmitter is programmed, the red LED on the module
flashes quickly then stops flashing, indicating you have successfully
programmed the transmitter to the module.
D. You may operate the light with the programmed transmitter.
6. If you are programming a transmitter for Flashing operation, continue to
hold the “SET” button for another 6 seconds, until the LED flashes twice
at a time.
7. You may now follow steps 5A) to 5C) to complete the programming
sequence.
8. If you are programming a transmitter for Timer operation,
hold the “SET” button for another 6 seconds, until the LED is on steadily.
9. You may now follow steps 5A) to 5C) to complete the programming
sequence.
Note: You must complete the programming sequence within the 15-second
interval, otherwise, the module will quit from programming mode and you
need to start again from step 1 if the red LED is off.
You may follow the same instructions to program additional transmitters or
sensors to operate the receiver module.
Otherwise, go to step 8.
continue to
Note: To program other transmitters/sensors (besides TC transmitter),
please refer to the instructions of the transmitters/sensors.
As mentioned, the timer can be set to the following durations, 1 minute,
5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes.
There is only one timer setting, so all transmitters that are programmed
in timer mode and flashing mode will have the same timer duration. To
set the timer duration, follow the instructions below:
1. Plug in the module to an AC socket so it is powered on properly.
2. Turn off the connected load by a programmed transmitter. The load
must be off in order to set the timer duration.
3. Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds, the red LED flashes
once. The number of flash indicates the timer duration:
4. Continue to hold the SET button until it reaches the desired setting. The
status will change every 6 seconds, i.e. hold onto the SET button for
another 6 seconds, you will see the number of flashes changes from 1
to 2, 2 to 3 etc.
This timer duration is used for both under Flashing Operation Mode and
Timer Operation Mode.

The PR-318 allows on / off operation,
when the programmed button is activate, it will transmit a signal to toggle
its current status. For example, if a signal is received when the light is off,
that signal will turn on the light.
