When installed, the RQT-433-RCVR allows the user to activate RQT pre-recorded messages by pressing a small keyfob transmitter. Ritron model keyfobs are pre-set to activate 1 of 8 RQT messages. Simply record your desired voice message into the RQT Series transmitter using the RQT PC Programmer and you are ready to go. RQT Radio Operation For RQT models with an RQT-433-RCVR installed, any of the 4 RQT inputs can be programmed for “KEYFOB” operation. This will allow that input to operate on 2 pre-assigned Ritron keyfobs per the following chart: Input Models Input 1 RQT-KEYFOB-1 RQT-KEYFOB-2 Input 2 RQT-KEYFOB-3 RQT-KEYFOB-4 Input 3 RQT-KEYFOB-5 RQT-KEYFOB-6 Input 4 RQT-KEYFOB-7 RQT-KEYFOB-8 Once an RQT input is set for “KEYFOB” operation it will no longer respond to switch closures or analog signals, the two Input messages can only be activated by the specific received keyfob codes assigned to that input. Refer to the RQT Programming section of this manual for details of KEYFOB input programming and the associated programming options available. Once the radio has been programmed and installed, Ritron model keyfobs can be used to activate the RQT transmitter and broadcast a unique, user recorded voice message associated with the specific keyfob. EXAMPLE: RQT Input 1 is set for “KEYFOB” operation with “Assistance needed in classroom 111” recorded for RQT-KEYFOB-1 and “Assistance needed in classroom 112” recorded for RQT-KEYFOB-2. Ritron keyfobs RQT-KEYFOB-1 and RQT-KEYFOB-2 can now activate these two recorded messages respectively. Effect on RQT Radio Battery Life In order for the RQT-433-RCVR receiver to reliably decode signals from the keyfob transmitters, RQT radio models with the RQT-433-RCVR keyfob receiver installed have increased current requirements and do not operate in the low current “standby” mode. Therefore, battery life is severely reduced and it is recommended that the RQT be externally powered. Where battery life of an RQT radio would normally be about 1 year, it drops to about 2 weeks with the RQT-433-RCVR installed.

While the transmitted signal consists of encoded digital data, only one carrier of any particular frequency can occupy airspace without contention at any given time. If two transmitters are activated in the same area at the same time, then the signals will interfere with each other and the decoder will not see a valid transmission, so it will not take any action. The effective range of a Ritron keyfob is similar to that of a garage door opener. Range will be affected by obstructions, if the keyfob is in your pocket, or how the keyfob is held. The location of the RQT transmitter can help extend the range of the RQT-433-RCVR. RQT-KEYFOB Battery Replacement The keyfob utilizes a standard CR2032 lithium button cell. In normal use, it can provide up to 1 year of operation. Access for replacement is accomplished by gently prying apart the two halves of the keyfob at the seam (fingernails will do for this). Once the unit is open, remove the battery by sliding it out from beneath the retainer. There may be the risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by the wrong type. Replace it with the same type of battery while observing the polarity shown in the adjacent figure.

A programmer update to this revision is available at www.ritron.com. 1. Connect the RQT radio your computer via the USB port and using the Ritron PC Programmer, read out the radio programming. If the model indicated is not on the following list, your radio is not equipped with the RQT-433-RCVR keyfob receiver and cannot be programmed for keyfob operation. Ritron Models with the RQT-433-RCVR installed: RQT-151-RCVR RQT-151M-RCVR RQT-152-RCVR RQT-152M-RCVR RQT-451-RCVR RQT-452-RCVR 2. Select the input you would like to program for Keyfob operation. The input you select will depend on the specific Ritron keyfobs you use. Check to see which model keyfob you have and program the input per the following list. Input Models Input 1 RQT-KEYFOB-1 RQT-KEYFOB-2 Input 2 RQT-KEYFOB-3 RQT-KEYFOB-4 Input 3 RQT-KEYFOB-5 RQT-KEYFOB-6 Input 4 RQT-KEYFOB-7 RQT-KEYFOB-8 3. From the left column of Input programming screen, set the Input Type to Keyfob. 4. Press the Record button and record a unique message for the Ritron keyfob indicated. Repeat the process if a second keyfob is to be used. 5. Program the various attributes available on the Input programming screen to customize how the RQT transmitter will respond to the keyfob.

For assistance, call RITRON at 800-872-1872, or go to www.ritron.com 7 Programmable RQT Radio Attributes Latch On - When Latch On is selected, the RQT will ignore decoded signals from the keyfob until after the transmission schedule have been completed. If not set, the RQT will transmit the recorded message every time is receives the correct code. EXAMPLE: RQT-KEYFOB-1 is scheduled for 2 transmissions, 30 seconds between transmissions. When RQT-KEYFOB-1 has been decoded the recorded message will be transmitted twice with 30 seconds in between, and any additional signals from RQT-KEYFOB-1 will be ignored until 30 seconds after the message is sent the 2nd time. Signals from other keyfobs will still be heard, only RQT-KEYFOB-1 will be ignored. Input Operation - can be set for 1 of 3 different modes: Normal operation considers the RQT-KEYFOB code as it is received. Dwell operation requires the keyfob code to be present continuously for a specified period of time before considering. Holdoff operation requires that the keyfob code is not present for a specified period of time before it is considered. EXAMPLE: RQT-KEYFOB-2 set for 1 min. holdoff. When the RQT-KEYFOB-2 code is received the recorded message will play. Any additional signals from RQT-KEYFOB-2 will be ignored until after 1 minute has elapsed. Number of Message Transmissions - specifies the number of times a recorded message will be transmitted after an RQT-KEYFOB code has been received. Time between Transmissions specifies the length of time between scheduled transmissions. If it is set to “No Message”, the recoded message will not play. If it is set to “On Changes Only”, the recorded message will only play when the keyfob code is decoded. Play Message on each Transmission specifies the number of times the recorded message will be repeated on each transmission. EXAMPLE: RQT-KEYFOB-1 is scheduled for 2 transmissions, 30 seconds between transmissions, 2 messages per transmission. When RQT-KEYFOB-1 has been decoded the recorded message will be transmitted twice, wait 30 seconds, then the message is transmitted twice again.

This establishes a relationship between a single RQT-433-RCVR receiver and multiple keyfobs with different codes. For the vast majority of users the address does not need to be changed. Occasionally the user may want to change the address to: • Install two or more RQT-433-RCVR keyfob receivers in the same location. • Avoid interference with another transmitter using the same address. • Create a more secure “non-standard” address. The RQT-433-RCVR receiver and RQT-KEYFOB transmitters allow the selection of one of 1,024 unique addresses. To avoid contention with other units or to create unique relationships, the address can be changed. This is accomplished by cutting PCB traces with a sharp object, such as an X-Acto knife. On the RQT-KEYFOB keyfob the traces are accessed by removing the rear cover. If the trace is intact, the address line is connected to ground, otherwise it is floating. The RQT-433-RCVR receiver address must match exactly in order for the units to communicate. EXAMPLE: Both the RQT-KEYFOB and the RQT-433-RCVR can be programmed with the same unique address by cutting the PCB traces at positions 2 and 4. They now have a unique relationship that allows them to communicate only with each other. RQT-KEYFOB RQT-433-RCVR
