Rako WCM-D Wired Switch Interface Backbox Mounted for up to 8 Single Switches

Introducing the Rako Controls WCM-D Backbox mounted wired system interface for third-party switches; up to eight individual single-way switches can be connected to each unit. It is available at Sparks for the best price. The WCM-D allows custom and third-party switch plates to be used in place of a Rako wired keypad (WCM/WK-EOS/WK-MOD etc.)

The WCM-D will fit inside a single-gang UK back box. Up to eight switch inputs can be used per WCM-D. The switch plate can be formed of latching or momentary action switches connected by short wires to terminals on the WCM-D.

Please note: this item is non-returnable; due to the fact that it has an electronic component, we cannot take this item back for a refund.

It needs to be wired to terminals so that it can be used with external push buttons (to be ordered separately). 

Rako WCM-D Rako Wired Switch Interface Backbox Mounted - Features

• The Rako Controls WCM-D allows custom and third-party switch plates to be used in place of a Rako wired keypad (WCM/WK-EOS/WK-MOD etc).
• Excessive cable lengths can pick up noise, which can cause intermittent operation or spurious triggering. The recommended maximum cable length is 300mm.
• The WCM-D is an 8-way interface that fits in a standard UK backbox. The WCM-D is suitable for third party retractive and latching switches.
• When the use of 3rd party switches is required, the WCM-D provides an interface to the rest of the Rako Wired System, taking dry contact inputs from a 3rd party switch and outputting Rako Wired commands.
• LED feedback capability and connections for the RAKOM wired network. Fits within a 47mm UK back box.
• Up to eight switch inputs can be taken per WCM-D.
• The switch plate can be formed of Latching or Momentary Action switches connected by short wires to terminals on the Rako Controls WCM-D.
• The WCM-D is wired into two pluggable sets of terminals. The 8-way terminal block connects to the Rako wired network formed of Cat5/Cat6 cable with cable allocations as set out above.
• Scene selection
• Scene toggle
• Level toggle
• Fade toggle (push dim)
• Room/Channel raise and lower
• Whole House controls
• Momentary or Latching switches
