• By plugging the Model 781C-00 power supply into the switched AC outlet on the back of a stereo receiver,

a constant 12V DC is applied to the 599.  The 599 generates a short pulse (+12V, 100 mSec) at its 

terminal when it first sees +5 to +30V DC at its IN+ and IN– terminals (the stereo receiver is turned on).

• Similarly, it will generate a short pulse at its 

 terminal (+12V, 100 mSec) when the +5 to +30 volts drops

to 0 volts (the stereo receiver is turned off).

 • This short pulse operation also permits momentary switches to be connected to other inputs on the 590

(such as inputs 1 and 2, as in 

).  This allows additional system commands, other than those activated

by the 599, to be executed uninhibited.

  shows another example of how a DC control voltage is converted to momentary ON and OFF pulses

by the 599 Pulsed Switching Module.

• For instance, a special SPST sensing switch, as shown, could be mounted in the springs of an over-stuffed

chair.

• When someone sits down in the chair, the SPST switch is closed causing the 599 to trigger a sequence

of IR commands stored in the 590.  The IR commands could cause the room lights to dim, the drapes to
close, and music to emanate from the speakers.

• When the chair is no longer occupied, the SPST switch opens, triggering another set of sequenced

commands.  These, in turn, could cause the lights to brighten, the drapes to open & the music to turn off.

• Many other applications are possible, limited only by the imagination and needs of the installer and user.

• The 590 inputs that are to be activated by the 599 Pulsed Switching Module 

 be programmed

with the necessary commands 

 connecting the 599.

• Do this by using the connections and procedures as previously mentioned.

• The 590 

 be programmed through the 599!

• INPUTS:

16 Opto-Isolators connected via 16 screw terminal pairs, each in series with a 1k Ohm
resistor.  Input voltage range, 5 to 30 Volts DC.  All isolated - no common ground connec-
tions.

Drive current for each input is 11 mA at 12V DC.

12V DC is available on the 

 "

" and "

" screw terminals for driving inputs through

external switch closures.

• BANKS:

Four.  16 commands per bank.

• IR OUT:

2  screw terminals marked "

" (output) and "

" (Gnd.). Same electrical

characteristics as Xantech IR Receivers and key pads.
