DESCRIPTION
The MRDS10 To u c h s c r een is a Top Dog™ wire le s s network House,
Room and Group level co n t r o l le r. It has a 2-co lor LCD touch panel
d i s p l a y.
The To u c h s c r een can be opera ted with power supplied by the
MRDP10 wall-mount charger, the optional MRDC10 ta b le - to p
c h a rger, or it can be te m p o ra r i ly re m o ved from the power supply to
be used as a porta b le hand-held dev i c e .
Top Dog™ Wireless Communication
Watt Stopper wire l e ss dev i c es use radio signals to co m m u n i ca te with
each other to co n t rol lighting and other types of electric loads in
s e le c ted areas. These wire l e ss dev i ces use the 900MHz band fo r
high-speed co n t rol co m m u n i cation. Using the Watt Sto p p e r ’s ow n
“ f r e q u e n c y - a g i le” Top Dog™ te c h n o logy, these wire l e ss dev i ces avo i d
i n t e r fe r e n ce with other 900MHz dev i c es, such as co rd l e s s phones
and baby monito rs .
OPERATION
The MRDS10 To u c h s c r e e n is a house level scene co n t r o l le r.
The MRDP10 is included with the MRDS10 package. It is a wall-
m o u n t ed power supply and battery charger for the To u c h s c r een. The
To u c h s c r een can be used while attached to the MRDP10, or it can be
te m p o ra r i l y re m oved from the MRDP10 and used as a porta b l e
handheld dev i ce. The To u c h s c r een should be returned to a MRDP10
or MRDC10 power supply to re c h a rge its batte r i e s .
Human Interface
The primary human inte r fa ce on the MRDS10 is the To u c h s c re e n .
The menus and co n t rol functions are acce s sed by
touching the labels and icons on the screen. The
To u c h s c r een has a help system built into each page.
To acce ss help and information about a particular
page, pre s s the question mark button at the top of any
p a g e .
The MRDS10 also uses a multi-co lor LED (gre e n / a m b e r / red) to
i n d i c a te dev i ce status. Dire c t ly below the LED there is a single push-
b u t t on. Momenta r i ly pre s s this button to wake up the dev i c e when in
p ower save mode. This button also acts as a software reset (re b o o t )
function when held for a period of 10 seconds. When this is done the
fa c tory default co n t ra st and brightness settings are re s to red. No
other setup information is alte r ed.
To reset the unit to a fa c to r y
d e f ault sta te, the user must use
the To u c h s c reen to go into the
setup menu and perform this
function in the Lock/Reset page .
Power Fail Memory
A f ter a power fa i l u re, all wire l e ss dev i c es auto m a t i c a l l y return to the
sta te that they we re in immediate ly prior to lo s s of powe r. All
co n fi g u r ation and scene co n t rol information is pre s e r ved.

WALL-MOUNT POWER SUPPLY INSTALLATION
The MRDP10 can be insta l led in a user occupied space within radio ra n g e
of the wire l e s s network dev i ces. It must be insta l led in acco rd a n ce with
national and lo cal ele c t r i cal codes by qualified pers o n n e l .
The MRDP10 housing is designed for installation in a 3-gang ele c t r i c al box
using four mounting holes on the unit. Radio co m m u n i cation cannot be
g u a ra n teed if the unit is mounted in a metallic ele c t r i cal enclo s u re.
1 . C o m p le te the physical installation and binding of all other wire le s s
d ev i c es in the network.
2 . Shut off the circuit bre a k e r.
3 . I n s tall a 3-gang (minimum) ele c t r i cal wall box in a lo cation co n v e n i e n t
to the system user.
Back of MRDP10
4 . W i re the MRDP10 to the 120VAC supply circuit using the NEUTRAL and
LINE terminals as indica ted on the back of the MRDP10.
5 . S e c u re the MRDP10 to the ele c t r i c al wall box using the 4 mounting hole
s c rew lo c a t i o n s .
Front of MRDP10
Do not lo c a te the MRDP10 close to any dev i ce that may ca u s e
i n t e r fe re n c e or behind large metal objects that can block ra d i o
re ception. Avoid flu o r e s c ent light fix t u r es, TV sets, co m p u te rs ,
re f r i g e ra to rs, microw a ve ovens, range hoods, safes, etc .

co n fi g u r ation. See SET HOUSE ID in this manual.
SET HOUSE ID
All Watt Stopper Top Dog wire l e ss dev i c es insta l led in the same syste m
m u st acquire the same unique House ID befo re use. This pro ce s s is
k n own as house binding. Each wire l e ss dev i ce is bound to all other
w i r e le s s dev i c es in the house. If you are not familiar with the binding
p r o c e ss for the dev i c es in your installation, please rev i ew the Insta l l a t i o n
Guide, or individual installation instructions provided with the dev i ce s .
The House ID binding gives the To u c h s c r een the same House ID as the
re st of the wire le s s network.
1 . M a k e sure all dev i ces are insta l l ed and energized and all group, house,
and room bindings are co m p le t e. Make sure that every other wire le s s
d ev i ce LED is green and the MRDS10 is ye l low (amber).
2 . P re s s on any p r ev i o u s ly bound d ev i ce until its LED flashes amber
(about 2 seco n d s ) .
3 . Verify that the LED on the MRDS10 starts flashing green. This sets the
House ID to match the other dev i c es in the house.
4 . Return to the same prev i o u s ly bound d ev i ce used in step 2 and pre s s
until its LED changes to solid green (about 2 seconds). All dev i ce
LEDs including the MRDS10 should now be solid gre e n .
