Texecom Ricochet Relay DC-W 868MHz Wireless Low Voltage Relay | GHF-0001

Wireless Low Voltage Relay for Security & Automation Applications

The Texecom Relay DC-W GHF-0001 is a wireless low-voltage relay designed to provide secure and flexible control of security, access control and automation equipment.

Powered from 7–24V DC, the Relay DC-W uses Texecom's Ricochet® 868MHz wireless technology to add wireless control to suitable wired devices. It can provide both On/Off and pulse operation, making it ideal for applications such as electric gates, garage doors, magnetic locks, sirens, barriers and roller shutters.

Compatible with the Texecom Connect app when incorporated into a suitable Texecom system, the Relay DC-W provides a practical way to remotely control connected equipment while reducing the need for additional control cabling.

7–24V DC Low Voltage Operation

The Relay DC-W is powered by a 7–24V DC supply, making it particularly suited to low-voltage security, access control and automation equipment.

Unlike the AC mains-switching Relay-W variant, the GHF-0001 is designed as a low-voltage wireless relay, providing flexible switching for compatible circuits and equipment.

On/Off & Pulse Control

The Relay DC-W supports both On/Off and pulse control, allowing it to perform different functions depending on the connected equipment.

On/Off control can be used where a device needs to remain activated or deactivated until another command is received.

Pulse control provides a momentary switching action, making it particularly useful for equipment such as:

• Automatic Gates
• Garage Doors
• Barriers
• Electric Locks
• Roller Shutters
• Other Momentary-Trigger Equipment

This flexibility allows a single relay design to be used across a wide range of security and automation applications.

Ricochet® Mesh Wireless Technology

The GHF-0001 uses Texecom Ricochet 868MHz wireless technology for communication with a compatible Texecom system.

Ricochet-enabled devices can receive and repeat wireless transmissions from other compatible devices, creating a mesh network rather than relying solely on conventional point-to-point communication.

This architecture helps extend the size, scalability and effective wireless coverage of the system, making Ricochet particularly useful in larger or more complex buildings.

Add Wireless Control to Wired Equipment

The Relay DC-W can be installed alongside suitable conventional wired equipment to provide Ricochet wireless control.

This allows existing equipment to become part of a wireless security or automation system without requiring the controlled device itself to incorporate Ricochet technology.

It provides a particularly useful solution for retrofit projects or installations where running additional control cables would be difficult or disruptive.

How the Relay DC-W Works

The Relay DC-W receives secure wireless commands from the compatible control system through Ricochet communication.

When a command is received, the relay can open or close the connected circuit according to its configuration.

The relay can then either maintain the selected state for On/Off applications or provide a momentary pulse for equipment requiring a trigger signal.

This allows suitable equipment to be operated wirelessly from the security and automation system.

Texecom Connect App Control

When configured as part of a compatible Texecom system, the Relay DC-W can be incorporated into Texecom Connect functionality.

This provides convenient control of connected equipment through the wider security system, allowing suitable devices and automation functions to be managed remotely.
