2 Channel Remote Control for STICK-ONs

The RDL D-RC2ST is a two-channel remote control for STICK-ONs designed for remote selection of two audio sources, destinations, or functions. Operation is direct: one momentary pushbutton is provided for each channel, and a red LED for each channel indicates the selected channel. The control provides open-collector switching for one of two module functions. It supports either 3-wire or 4-wire remote wiring and uses a detachable terminal block for its power input and open-collector output connections.

Ideal Use Cases

This model fits systems that require a separate control point for choosing between two audio sources, two destinations, or two available functions. It is also suited to installations using STICK-ON modules or incorporating other RDL remote controls. Because every choice has its own pushbutton and status indicator, an operator can make a selection and confirm the selected channel at the control position. The focused two-choice layout keeps operation straightforward for applications that do not require additional selections.

Why Choose This Model

The D-RC2ST combines dedicated controls, visible channel indication, and open-collector switching in a professional-looking remote panel. Each option has its own momentary pushbutton instead of sharing a single selection control. Two red LEDs provide immediate visual indication of the selected channel. Support for both 3-wire and 4-wire remote wiring provides defined integration options, while the detachable terminal block makes the specified power and output connections accessible. RDL also identifies this model as a companion to its other remote controls.

Installation and Integration

The D-RC2ST mounts in a standard US electrical box and can also be installed in RDL WB- or SMB-series boxes. A cover plate is available separately, so it should be accounted for when planning the completed installation. Power and open-collector outputs connect through the detachable terminal block. The power requirement is a ground-referenced 24 Vdc supply at 30 mA. Remote connections may use either 3-wire or 4-wire wiring according to the system configuration. The open-collector outputs are current limited to 25 mA, providing a clear electrical parameter for integration with the controlled module.

Performance Highlights

Two momentary selectors provide one pushbutton for each channel, while two red LED indicators show which channel is selected. The switching section controls one of two module functions through open-collector outputs. The specified ambient operating range is 10° C to 55° C, defining the environmental limits for operation. Its 24 Vdc, 30 mA power requirement and 25 mA current-limited outputs give system designers the principal electrical details needed when incorporating the remote into an installation.

What Makes It Different

The defining feature of the D-RC2ST is its combination of dedicated per-channel operation and support for multiple control roles. The same two-channel format can be used for remote selection of sources, destinations, or module functions. Its choice of 3-wire or 4-wire remote wiring broadens the available connection arrangements without changing the operator interface. The two red indicators remain dedicated to selection status, and the panel presents the professional aesthetic specified for the product. Its role as a companion to other RDL remote controls also supports a coordinated RDL control installation.

Final Assessment

For an RDL or STICK-ON installation requiring exactly two remote selections, the D-RC2ST provides a concise set of documented capabilities: two momentary pushbuttons, two red channel indicators, current-limited open-collector outputs, and 3-wire or 4-wire connectivity. It installs in standard US electrical boxes or specified RDL boxes and operates from ground-referenced 24 Vdc power. The separately available cover plate should be included in installation planning.
