Repeater Mounting
The WPC-1 is equipped with a signal repeater that can be mounted up to 10 feet from the WPC-1
unit. This repeater receives signals from the wireless remote and sends that signal to the WPC-1
via the 10 foot cable. Establish a location for the Repeater that is in line of sight from where the
wireless remote will be used most frequently and that is no more then 75 feet from furthest where
the remote will be used. NOTE: If extension is needed, use Fiberstars part number 94-15098-00
and follow installation instructions supplied with the Repeater Extension.
To mount the Repeater, carefully insert a small flathead screwdriver into groove between the
Dome and Base approximately where the locking dimples are located. Pry the Dome out of on of
the locking dimples. Then carefully insert the small flathead screwdriver into the groove between
the Dome and the Base in an adjacent locking dimple and pry the Dome out. Then separate the
Dome from the Base by hand. Using the supplied self-drilling screws, locate a suitable mounting
surface and screw the base to this surface. Note that the marking “TOP” must be in the 12
o’clock position and the wire slit must be in the 6 o’clock position. Do not over tighten the
screws as it may damage the Repeater base. Realign the Repeater Dome to the Base and ensure
that the wire is exiting the base through the slit and the Locking Dimples are aligned with the

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WPC-1 TOGGLE SWITCH OPERATION
The WPC-1 receiver box houses two switches. For
operation with the wireless transmitter, the switches
need to be in the REMOTE position. To manually
turn ON the devices connected to either Circuit 1 or
Circuit 2, flip the switches to the ON position. When
a circuit is in the ON position, the Wireless Remote
will not be able to turn OFF the respective circuit.
To turn OFF the devices manually, flip the
respective switch to the MIDDLE or OFF position.
NOTE: In the OFF position, the wireless remote
operation will be bypassed. To re-enable the
wireless remote operation, flip the switch back to the
REMOTE position. NOTE: If the units turn ON
when the switch is returned to the REMOTE
position, simply use the wireless remote to turn OFF
the units if desired.
WIRELESS REMOTE OPERATION
NOTE: The toggle switches on the WPC-1
must be set to REMOTE for wireless
operation. The POWER ON/OFF buttons
control the individual circuits independently.
With each push of the button, the WPC-1
toggles the individual circuits from ON to OFF
and vice versa.
For Synchronization
operation, simply push the SYNC ON/OFF
button. NOTE: If all circuits are off when the
SYNC ON/OFF button is pressed, all circuits
will be turned to ON. If any one of the circuits
are in the ON state by the wireless remote,
then when the SYNC ON/OFF button is
pressed all circuits will be turned OFF and the
SYNC ON/OFF must be pressed to turn all
circuits on simultaneously.
Units equipped with toggle switches
NOTE: Circuit 1 is in the ON position
and Circuit 2 is in the REMOTE position

TIMER OPERATION
Set time to current time. In the example below, the current time is set for 9:00pm. NOTE:
Only turn the Timer dial clockwise or the timer will be damaged. Once the time has been
set to the current time, set the hours of the Pump operation by “snapping” the timer tabs inwards
towards the center. NOTE: Each tab represents 15 minutes of operation and tabs set
inwards towards the center is for OFF operations and ON when the tabs are set outwards
as illustrated. In the example below, the Pump will be off from 12:00pm to 11:45pm.
Once the time and time of operation has been set, ensure that the Timer function switch is set to
Auto for timer control of the Pump as illustrated below. To turn off timers automatic functions,
set the Timer function switch to OFF. To manually turn on the Pump, set the Timer function
switch to the ON position. NOTE: When in the ON position, the Pump will continue to run
until the Timer function switch is set to Auto where the tabs at the Set Point is in the OFF
position or if the Timer function switch is rotated to the OFF position.

CODE ADJUSTMENTS
If it is necessary to change the transmission code on the WPC-1 an adjustment to the receiver AND the transmitter
DIP switches must be performed.
RECEIVER DIP SWITCHES – Turn OFF power to the WPC-1 from the breaker panel. Open the enclosure and
unscrew the face plate. Disconnect the Molex connector that connects the front panel controls to the receiver unit
and set the face plate on a safe location where it will not be bent, scratched, or impact forces applied to the
components or the face plate itself. Unscrew the four (4) screws holding the receiver to the base of the WPC-1
control box. Unscrew the four (4) screws located on the back of the receiver to release the cover. NOTE: Take
notice of how the wires enter and exit the receiver. Remove the cover and look on the PCB to locate the DIP switch
as illustrated.
TRANSMITTER DIP SWITCHES – Remove all screws from rear of remote. Separate the bottom cover from the
top cover.
DIP SWITCH ADJUSTMENT – The four DIP switches have an ON and an OFF position. Changing just one DIP
switch will change the code. MAKE SURE BOTH THE RECEIVER AND TRANSMITTER HAVE THE SAME
DIP SWITCH SETTINGS.
