Overview

1. Device Description: Selectronic Remote Control Programmer

The document describes the "Selectronic Remote Control Operating Manual" for American Standard products, specifically focusing on the programming and operation of various sensor-activated fixtures like hand-wash faucets, metering faucets, on/off faucets, urinal flush valves, and dual-flush toilet valves. The manual outlines how to set detection distances, configure different operating modes, and adjust various parameters using a remote programmer.

Device Description: Selectronic Remote Control Programmer

The Selectronic Remote Control Programmer is a handheld device designed to configure and manage American Standard sensor-activated plumbing fixtures. It allows for precise adjustment of operational parameters, ensuring optimal performance and water efficiency for a range of applications, from public restrooms to healthcare facilities.

Function Description: The primary function of the remote programmer is to enable users to customize the settings of Selectronic sensors without direct physical interaction with the fixture's internal components. This includes:

• Setting Detection Distance: Calibrating the range at which the sensor detects a user, crucial for preventing false activations and ensuring reliable operation.
• Configuring Operating Modes: Switching between different modes such as Hand-Wash, Metering, On/Off, Urinal, and Dual Flush, each with specific functionalities tailored to the fixture type and intended use.
• Adjusting Timers: Setting various time-based parameters like Comfort Timeout, Safety Timeout, Rinse Start Interval, and Flush Duration.
• Enabling Maintenance Features: Activating modes like Cleaning and Disinfection for temporary sensor disablement or water line purging.
• Diagnostics: Determining the current settings of a faucet or flush valve (for products manufactured starting in 2008).
• Language Selection: Choosing the display language for the programmer.
• Backlight Adjustment: Controlling the intensity of the programmer's display backlight for better visibility in different lighting conditions.

Important Technical Specifications (as derived from the manual):

• Software Version: 1.6 (June 2019).
• Connectivity: Wireless transmission to the sensor. The programmer has a Mini-SUB Port, likely for firmware updates or diagnostics, though its specific function isn't detailed beyond being a port.
• Power: The programmer automatically turns off after 2 minutes of inactivity to conserve power.
• Detection Distance Ranges:
  • Hand-Wash Faucet: Recommended 16 cm (DEFAULT).
  • Metering Faucet: Recommended 16 cm (DEFAULT).
  • On/Off Faucet: Recommended 5 cm (SHORT RANGE).
  • Urinal Flush Valve: Recommended 40 cm.
  • Toilet Flush Valve: Recommended 60 cm.
• Timer Ranges:
  • Comfort Timeout: Adjustable from 0 to 10 seconds in 0.5-second increments (Hand-Wash).
  • Safety Timeout: Adjustable from 5 to 120 seconds in 5-second increments (Hand-Wash).
  • Auto-Rinse (Sanitary Flush) Activation: From 1 to 72 hours (of non-use) in 1-hour increments.
  • Auto-Rinse (Sanitary Flush) Duration: From 1 to 240 seconds (Hand-Wash, Metering, On/Off) or 1 to 10 seconds (Flush Valves).
  • Metering Run Times: 1, 2, 3.25, 7.5, 10, 15, 30, 60, 120, or 240 seconds.
  • Detection Interval: Recommended 5 seconds (Urinal/Toilet Flush Valves).
  • Rinse Start Interval: Recommended 2 seconds (Urinal/Toilet Flush Valves).
  • Heavy Flush Count: Adjustable from 10 to 100 flushes in 10-flush increments (Urinal/Toilet Flush Valves).
  • Heavy Flush Duration: Adjustable from 1 to 15 seconds in 1-second increments (Urinal/Toilet Flush Valves).
  • Disinfection Duration: 1 to 120 minutes in 1-minute intervals.

Usage Features: The programmer is operated using four keys:

• "Enter" (✓): Used to validate selections or transmit settings to the sensor.
• "Cancel" (X): Used to cancel operations or navigate back.
• "Scroll UP" (↑): Used to navigate menus or increase values.
• "Scroll Down" (↓): Used to navigate menus or decrease values. This key also serves to turn the programmer "ON."

The programming process generally involves:

1. Turning on the programmer.
2. Selecting the desired menu (e.g., Cleaning, Disinfection, Parameter).
3. Aligning the programmer with the sensor of the fixture.
4. Pressing "Enter" to transmit signals or activate features.
5. Using "Scroll UP" and "Scroll Down" to adjust settings.
6. Confirming settings with "Enter."

For setting the detection distance, a specific procedure is outlined:

1. Press "Enter" to initiate transmission, and the sensor will blink for 5 seconds, displaying "TRANSMISSION OK."
2. Move a finger within 1 inch of the sensor until the light stops blinking and stays steady.
3. Remove the finger and, with the palm of the hand, move to the desired detection distance.
4. When the sensor blinks again, move the hand away. The new setting is programmed.

The programmer retains programmed settings for approximately 3.5 minutes after use, allowing for quick configuration of multiple sensors (Backup Function).

Maintenance Features:

• Cleaning Mode: Disables the sensor for 1 minute, allowing cleaning crews to work on the fixture without accidental activation.
• Disinfection Mode: Activates a high-temperature or anti-bacterial chemical purging cycle for water lines. This mode can be set for 1 to 120 minutes and requires the maintenance person to be present to prevent user exposure to purged water.
• Auto-Rinse (Sanitary Flush/Auto Purge): This feature, available across various fixture types, automatically turns on the water after a set period of non-use. This prevents water stagnation in hand-wash faucets and helps maintain the trap seal in flush valves, preventing odors. The activation interval and run time are configurable.

Specific Mode Details:

• Hand-Wash Faucet: Focuses on "instant on/instant off" operation, with Comfort Timeout preventing rapid on/off cycling and Safety Timeout preventing continuous flow due to obstruction.
• Metering Faucet: Water runs for a programmed duration after activation.
• On/Off Faucet: Similar to metering but with a very short detection distance, requiring users to actively start and stop water flow by moving hands close to the sensor. Suited for gooseneck fittings.
• Urinal Flush Valve: Includes "DETEC. INTERVAL" to prevent false flushing, "RINSE START INT." for flush delay, "HEAVY FLUSH COUNT" for periodic large flushes to prevent clogging, and "STADIUM MODE" for automatic 2-minute flushing during heavy usage.
• Dual Flush Toilet Valve: Features "SHORT RINSING" for flushes under 1 minute of detection and "Rinse" for longer detection times, offering different flush volumes.

The manual also includes a "Flush Valve Settings" chart, providing recommended settings (GPF, Detect Interval, Rinse Start, Rinse (Flush-Duration), Auto Rinse (Sanitary Flush), Auto Rinse (Run Time)) for various urinal, toilet, and dual-flush models (e.g., Innsbrook, 1.0 GPF, 0.5 GPF, 1.6/1.1 GPF). It advises using the 2016 sensor setting for products manufactured between 2008 and 2015 if unsure, and to try the 2008 setting if transmission errors occur.
