Switching module RC-SM-4 |
Description
With the switching module RC-SM-4, lights and other loads (e.g. motors, pumps, relays) can be switched directly via a channel of an RC remote control.There are 4 outputs available on the switch module, which can be loaded with a current of up to 4 A. However, the total current of all outputs must not exceed 10 A.
The states of the 4 outputs are indicated by colored LEDs. It is easy to see which of the 4 outputs are currently switched on.
The RC-SM-4 has 15 different switching modes that can be selected via setup:
Mode | Function |
1 | 4-way memory short / long |
2 | 2-way memory short / 2-way momentary long |
3 | 4-way memory via areas A, B, C, D |
4 | 4-way momentary via areas A, B, C, D |
5 | 4-way memory via counting (EKMFA - A) |
6 | 4-way memory via counting (EKMFA - D) |
7 | Pulse when moving |
8 | 4-way light switch single (step switch) |
9 | 4-way light switch combined |
10 | Indicator (steering), hazard warning lights, light 1+2 |
11 | Indicator (memory), hazard warning lights, light 1+2 |
12 | Indicator (automatic shutdown), hazard warning lights, light 1+2 |
13 | Indicator (memory), light 1, light 2 |
14 | Brake light, light, reversing light |
15 | Flasher, running light |
When the RC-SM-4 is shipped, mode 1 is set in advance.
For modes no. 3, 4, 7, 10 and 14, a proportional control element (stick, slide control, rotary control) is required at the radio, since the RC-SM-4 has to evaluate proportional (stepless) signals here.
In all other modes, a 3-position switch on the radio is sufficient to control the outputs. However, proportional controller can also be used here.
Further information and a detailed description of the 15 switching modes can be found in the operating manual (PDF).

This is a outstanding product. SO much scope for modellers and scale builds alike. Check out a video series covering each of the 15 modes. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnmQfzPh55QkfFZhYx_QAP4NTQeL5GvNb |
