The bidirectional socket receiver RCP20 from ELDAT is a wireless receiver for controlling consumers in a 230 V network. It is simply plugged between a wall socket and the device to be switched, allowing it to be integrated into existing power supply lines without additional installation. The device enables wireless switching control via Easywave radio signals, with up to 32 different Easywave transmitters being programmable. Thus, the switching function can be controlled from multiple locations, for example, from remote controls, smart home systems, or other radio devices supporting the Easywave protocol.

Functions and equipment in detail
The receiver features an integrated button, allowing the connected device to be switched on and off directly at the device itself. This provides a redundant operating option that functions independently of wireless connections. The switching function is performed via a 1x-closer, which controls the power flow to the connected device. The programming of transmitters is done via a learning procedure, in which the receiver is put into learning mode and receives the signals from the transmitters. The maximum number of 32 learnable transmitters enables flexible use in larger installations or with multiple users.

Technology explained simply
The receiver operates bidirectionally, meaning it not only receives commands but can also send back status information. This bidirectional communication is enabled by integrating an Easywave neo Server, which can be learned into the receiver. This allows the status of the connected device (e.g., switched on or off) to be reported back to the control system, which is important for monitoring and automation. The Easywave radio technology is an established protocol for wireless control in residential and commercial environments, operating at a frequency of 868 MHz and designed for reliable signal transmission indoors.

Compatibility and accessories
The receiver is compatible with all Easywave transmitters supporting the standard protocol. The bidirectional functions can only be used if an Easywave neo Server is learned into the receiver. This server serves as a central interface for bidirectional communication and enables feedback of the switching status. Use with other systems not based on Easywave is not intended.

Mounting and installation
Installation is done by simply plugging the receiver into an existing socket, with the device to be switched connected to the receiver's output. No additional tools or electrical work are required. Power supply is via the socket's mains voltage (230 V), so no additional power supply is needed. Programming is done via the learning function, activated through the button on the device.

Advantages in operation
The use of the RCP20 enables flexible and decentralized control of consumers without modifying the existing electrical installation. The bidirectional functionality provides additional transparency, as the switching status of the device can be transmitted. The use of up to 32 learnable transmitters enables scalable use in apartments, offices, or industrial installations. The integrated button ensures an independent operating option that also functions during radio interference or when the wireless connection is disabled.
