SEC-CLAPPLUSRemote Control

THE CLAPPER PLUS® (logo) 6-21-2006 Congratulations! You now have the convenience, flexibility and security of The Clapper Plus. No other product allows you to control your lights and appliance by sound and RF remote control. With The Clapper Plus, you can turn on or off up to two different appliances by clapping your hands. Clap two times to operate one appliance and three times to operate a different appliance. In addition to clapping, you can also turn on or off your appliances by pressing the buttons on the remote control. The Clapper Plus also has a special AWAY mode. In this mode almost any noise will turn on the connected appliance(s) which can be use as a limited function security device to discourage potential intruders. The AWAY mode is also great for temporarily turning on lights when entering a dark room such as a garage or basement. In this mode there is no need to clap or press any button -- any noise will turn on the lights! For QUICK INSTRUCTIONS on operating your Clapper Plus, please refer to the yellow Quick Tips card. (I THINK A DIAGRAM OF THE CLAPPER AND REMOTE ARE APPROPRIATE HERE. OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCES BY CLAPPING HOW TO OPERATE AN APPLIANCE WITH 2 CLAPS: 1. Set the three position switch on the side of the unit to the HOME (HI) position. 2. Plug an appliance into the left receptacle of The Clapper Plus. This is the receptacle below the “II.” The maximum wattage per outlet is 250 watts. If you are using both the 2 clap and 3 clap receptacles, the combined total wattage cannot exceed 400 watts. (e.g.; 250 watts + 150 watts) 3. Plug the Clapper Plus into the wall socket. 4. Manually turn the appliance on. The indicator light to the left of the “II” will glow when the appliance has been manually turned on, but is clapped off. 5. You can now turn your appliance on and off by clapping. You don’t have to clap very hard! The clapping sequence is more important than how loudly you clap. CLAP (pause) CLAP (pause) (pause) (pause) where each pause is approximately ½ to 1 second long. The three pauses after the second clap are very important since the Clapper Plus must determine that you are not going to clap a third time. If you did clap a third time, the appliance connected to the II clap receptacle would not activate. HOW TO OPERATE AN APPLIANCE WITH 3 CLAPS: 1. Set the three position switch on the side of the unit to the HOME (HI) position. 2. Plug an appliance into right receptacle of the Clapper Plus. This is the receptacle below “III.” The maximum wattage per outlet is 250 watts. If you are using both the 2 clap and 3 clap receptacles, the combined total wattage can not exceed 400 watts. (e.g.; 200 watts + 200 watts) 3. Plug Clapper Plus into the wall socket. 4. Manually turn the appliance on. The indicator light to the right of the “III” will glow when the appliance has been manually turned on, but is clapped off. 5. You can now turn your appliance on and off by clapping. You don’t have to clap very hard. The clapping sequence is more important than how loudly you clap: CLAP (pause) CLAP (pause) CLAP (pause) where each pause is approximately ½ to 1 second long. The last pause after the third clap is very important since the Clapper Plus must determine if you are not going to clap a forth time. If you did clap a fourth time, the appliance would not activate. CLAP DETECTION LIGHTS The three red lights on the face of the Clapper Plus will help you determine the proper way to clap your appliances on or off. Each clap detection light will glow when a proper clap (or similar sound) is detected. Claps that are too soft will not be detected. Claps that are too fast together or too long apart will be rejected as noise and as a result the appliance will not turn on. When the Clapper Plus detects the first clap (or similar sound) the first light will glow. The second light will glow if a second clap is detected about ½ second after the first clap occurs. If the Clapper Plus does not detect a third clap, it will activate the appliance attached to the “II Clap side.” If a third clap is detected, then the third light will glow and the appliance connected to the “III Clap Side” will activate. AUTO SOUND SENSITIVITY: If room noise is detected or if a 2 clap or 3 clap sequences are not proper, the Clapper Plus will reject the sounds as noise. It indicates that it has rejected the noise by turning the LEFT and RIGHT clap detection lights on and automatically reduces the sensitivity of the Clap detection. This feature of automatically reducing the clap detection sensitivity helps to reduce background noises from turning on the appliances. The LEFT and RIGHT lights will remain on until the background noise is not detected. You can still clap while the lights are on, but because of the background noise, you will need to clap louder. When the lights go off the sensitivity of the Clapper Plus clap detection is at its greatest. You may notice the clap detection lights on occasionally even if you have not clapped. This is not unusual as the Clapper Plus has detected sounds that are similar to a clap. Your appliances should not activate as it would require a second or third sound similar to a clap within the proper time allowed. By observing the clap detection lights you can become familiar with the types of claps (or similar sounds) that will activate your appliances attached to the Clapper Plus. MANUAL SOUND SENSITIVITY You can also manually adjust your Clapper Plus to respond to soft or loud claps, as well as adjust for the noise level in your room. Placing the three position switch on the side to the Clapper Plus to the HOME (HI) position puts the Clapper Plus in the high sensitivity mode. This is helpful if your claps are soft or if the Clapper Plus is far away. Your appliance, however, may occasionally turn on or off unexpectedly as the Clapper Plus may detect other noises similar to your claps. Sliding the switch down to the HOME (LO) position will put the Clapper Plus into the low sens…
