RAKO Programmable Handheld Controller

The RAKO Programmable Handheld Controller offers a stylish handset with colour display screen to give more user information and flexibility. The handset can be used in multiple rooms, selectable from the menu and allows Room, Scene and Channel naming. Curtain and blind controls with open/closed and individual blind control options are also available on screen.

The controller is shipped with factory default settings. It will need to be programmed to operate correctly with your specific RAKO system. It can be programmed manually using it’s keypad with these instructions. More normally, it will be pre-programmed by the system installer through the RAKO USB to RF Interface.

Typically, the controller will be used to control lights in one or more rooms. The controller can issue "scene" commands that recall preset light levels for each dimmer; or can control individual circuits separately. The controller can also be used to open and close curtains and blinds. In this case, the curtains and blinds have been programmed to a different logical "room" to that used by the lights. The lighting "room" and the curtains "room" can be combined using the "group setup" menus. Once this is done, the shortcut key on the side of the controller can be used to make quick switch between lighting and curtain control.
