### FCC Regulation
This device complies with FCC rules Part 15. Operation is subject to the following conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept an interference that may cause undesired operation.
Transmitter distance may vary due to circumstances beyond our control. NOTE: The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized modifications to this equipment. Such modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
### Mounting the Receiver
Consider the following when mounting the receiver:
- Standard receiver cable length is 10 feet (3.05 m).
- For exterior applications run the cable through PVC conduit to protect it from damage.
- DO NOT run cable in conduit containing ac wiring.
- The receiver range can vary from 50 to 100 feet (15.2 to 30.5 m) depending upon weather, topography, and external interference.
> Figure: Drawing of the receiver mounted upright against a vertical surface. A screw is shown entering the mounting hole at the top. The antenna extends upward and the cable exits from the bottom.
**NOTE: Do not mount upside down.**
### Connect Receiver to Relay Inputs and Power

### Programming the Receiver
Programming transmitter(s) or other access devices to RB709U-NB receiver:
- Press and hold the transmitter (device) button to be learned.
- Press the ‘LEARN CH1’ (or ‘LEARN CH2’) button on the RB709U-NB receiver for 1-2 seconds or until the red LED turns on, then release the button.
- Note: When the correct code is received and the corresponding relay output is activated, the red LED will turn on.
> Figure: Photo of the rear/bottom of the receiver. Readable label:
>
> “Power In (8-24V): Red = V+, Black = COM”
> “CH1 (Normally Open): Blue & Green”
> “CH2 (Normally Open): Yellow & Brown”
>
> Two buttons are labeled “LEARN CH1” and “LEARN CH2”.
Check operation after programming:
- Press Transmitter (device) button, #1 - RED LED blinks once to confirm.
- Press Transmitter (device) button, #2 - RED LED blinks twice to confirm.
