Part Number Description
MAINSLINK MAINSLINK System (Supplied complete with Tx/Rx)
MAINSLINK-RX MAINSLINK Receiver unit
Description
MAINSLINK is a plug and play solution to replace a switched live cable.
When 230Vac “LIVE” is input to the transmitter, the receiver provides a
230Vac “LIVE” switched output at its screw terminals.

Cable Connections
MAINSLINK is very easy to connect, simply wire as follows:
MAINSLINK-TX - Transmitter:
1. Run a switched Live from your external device or switch to the
MAINSLINK-TX Transmitter and connect into the screw terminal
marked: L (Live)
2. Run a Neutral to the MAINSLINK-TX and connect to the terminal
marked N (Neutral).

2. Connect the LOAD: L1 Output and Neutral
This device is Double Insulated i.e. does not require a
safety connection to earth. However earth terminals are
provided for convenience to ensure earth continuity if
required

Warnings :
• Product is not independently isolated, ISOLATE the mains electricity supply before
removing the cover and observe any relevant safety precautions. Maintenance to the
product that involves removal of the cover should only be carried out by a competent
person or qualified electrician.
• F2 Fuse rating is 4A (T) 250 H (Ceramic). Replace fuse with same type and rating.
• Relay is rated at 10A peak, and 5A constant.
• Product must be connected to a switch fused (spur/supply) or BS 1363 Plug.

Fixing Instructions:
1. Fix the rear of the MAINSLINK enclosure to the wall using the template above.
2. Ensure that all fixing screws are screwed flush to the enclosure.
3. Ensure that the screw covers are put in place. These ensure water proofing and
insulate the PCB from the wall fixing screws. Screw Covers are found inside the
rear of the enclosure.
4. Screw the on front plate with the PCB in place. Check that its not upside down!

Pairing a Receiver
NOTE: MAINSLINK Systems are supplied pre-paired. This process is de-
scribed for advanced use only.
Erasing a Receiver
2. When the receiver is in learn
mode you will need to pair the
transmitter within 10 seconds. To
do this,
3. Apply a 230Vac supply to the
transmitter for 2 seconds and
then turn it off.
4. Allow 15 seconds for the receiver
to return to normal operation.
230Vac
To erase all transmitters from the
MAINSLINK-RX hold a magnet beside the
learn switch for 10 seconds as shown
NOTE: You cannot erase individual
MAINSLINK-TX units.
To pair the MAINSLINK–RX it must have a
230Vac supply connected.
1. Briefly place a magnet on the receiver by the
MAINSLINK-RX as shown
This will put the system in learn mode.
Operational Features and Advanced Instructions
System Communication:
The MAINSLINK-TX transmitter sends aa Radio message to the MAINSLINK-RX Receiver every time
the MAINSLINK-TX power is applied or removed. The MAINSLINK-RX receiver then mirrors the MAIN-
SLINK-TX Transmitters’ status on its output.
Failsafe “Watchdog” feature
When enabled, the MAINSLINK-TX automatically sends a background signal every 20 secs when it is
active.
MAINSLINK-RX expects to receive this background watchdog signal. If it fails to receive one watchdog
signal within a two minute period it will deactivate its output. If the Watchdog signal is lost an LED
will flash to show signal has been lost.
Momentary / Latching Jumper
When used as a Mainslink system the Jumper link 3-4 must be OPEN (Momentary operation).
When the Mainslink Receive r is sued with an alternative Transmitter such as a pocket keyfob then
the Link can be set to Latching operation if so required
Multiple system operation:
Each MAINSLINK transmitter is uniquely coded, this means that no two systems will cross operate
by default. If multiple transmitters or receivers are required to work together the MAINSLINK can be
programmed to work together.
One to Many Operation:
To pair a transmitter to receivers together the following process must be done:
1) Apply power to MAINSLINK-RX (once powered do not touch the PCB!)
2) Pass a magnet close to the magnetic learn switch, you should see an LED start to flash
3) Whilst this LED is flashing apply power to the MAINSLINK-TX and then power unit off
4) MAINSLINK-RX will stop flashing its LED
5) Your MAINSLINK-TX will now operate your MAINSLINK-RX
Power Supply
The MAINSLINK is designed to operate between 110-230V in a fixed installation. Before removing the
cover on either Transmitter or Receiver ensure that the mains input supply is isolated. Maintenance
to the product that involves removal of the cover should only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
