What the Rako WDA-600 is
The Rako WDA-600 is a 600W insert card for 0-10V, DSI and DALI dimmable ballasts. It is the RAK8 counterpart of the in-line RDA-800.
Where it sits in a Rako system
The WDA-600 plugs into one of the eight slots on a RAK8-MB motherboard and can be mixed with other RAK8 cards. It has no memory of its own: programming is stored on the motherboard, so cards can be swapped without reprogramming. It needs a RAK-LINK in a wired system or an RX-LINK in a wireless one. It is programmed in RASOFT Pro and controlled from Rako keypads, remotes and the Rako app. See the Rako RAK system.
Ratings and limits
- Maximum load: 600W

Power and connection
The card takes power and control from the RAK8-MB, which runs from 230V AC 50Hz and needs a 10A Type B MCB. Rako's RAK8-MB instruction manual covers installation, which should be done by a competent electrician.
Fitting
Plugs into a RAK8-MB slot. The motherboard must be mounted vertically so its ventilation works.
