Why Rako RACUB

Is the universal model in the range, suiting 230V AC, 12V DC and dry-contact motors

Curtains and blinds

Open, stop and close from the Rako keypad, in the same scene as the lights.

Wireless

One plate

The wall plate already on the lights can recall a scene that also draws the blinds.

What the Rako RACUB is

The Rako RACUB is a dual-relay switching module for motor control, suitable for mains, low-voltage and dry-contact motors. It is the most flexible of Rako's three wireless curtain modules: the RACUB2L is for mains motors with two live inputs, and the RACUB24DC is for 24V DC polarity-reversing motors.

Where it sits in a Rako system

The RACUB is controlled by Rako wireless commands from keypads such as the RK-EOS-6, and works with the Rako app through an RK-HUB. Basic set-up can be done from a Rako keypad; full customisation, including relay time-out and latching or momentary switching, uses RASOFT Pro with a RAMPI or RK-HUB. See all Rako wireless blinds and curtains.

The RACUB is the universal model; the RACUB2L is for mains motors and the RACUB24DC for 24V DC motors.

Rako app

Scenes from the keypad, and from the phone

This product sits in a Rako system. The keypad on the wall runs the room. With an RK-HUB or WK-HUB, the same scenes also run from the free Rako app.

  • Room scenes from the keypad on the wall
  • App control once an RK-HUB or WK-HUB is on the network
  • Voice, timers and holiday mode from the Hub

The Rako app is published by Rako, and needs an RK-HUB or WK-HUB with firmware 3.7.6 or later.
