The no touch round 868MHz wireless kick switch is a versatile wireless contactless door sensor designed for hygienic activation of automatic doors, access control systems, and accessible entrances. Featuring a unique round wedge-shaped design, it is operated comfortably by foot, making it an ideal solution for environments where hands-free access and hygiene are essential.

Using advanced 868MHz wireless technology, the RTXFOOT provides reliable, cable free operation with a touch free range of up to 20mm. Simply wave your foot near the sensor to activate the door. No physical contact or pressure is required! The intelligent battery-saving design ensures the sensor transmits only a single signal if a hand or foot remains within the sensing area, helping to maximise battery life.

The smooth, rounded wedge profile has no sharp edges, making it particularly suitable as a wireless foot switch for automatic doors. It provides a comfortable, intuitive method of activation in hospitals, healthcare facilities, cleanrooms, commercial buildings, and public entrances.

Manufactured with a tough, scratch resistant antimicrobial acrylic faceplate, the RTXFOOT continuously protects against contamination. The antimicrobial technology actively eliminates 99.9% of bacteria, including E. coli, MRSA, Salmonella, and Legionella, while also helping prevent the growth of black mould, fungi, and biofilm. This ongoing protection reduces the risk of cross-contamination, prevents staining and unpleasant odours, and helps extend the lifespan of the product.

Combining robust construction with reliable wireless performance, it offers a modern, hygienic alternative to traditional mechanical push pads and door switches.

▪ You must locate & access the receiver to program a touch sensor

Compatible receivers are: RX-2, RX-4, RX-2-5A, RX-MINI-1, RX-MINI-1-PLUS, RX-T
The receiver will be wired in to whatever it is switching. If switching an automatic door, it is likely to be inside the operator. You may need to trace some wires back to it.
Please note the receiver may have been taken out of its housing.

▪ Touch sensor has stopped working or won’t program

Solution:

Change the batteries.
Follow the programming video tutorial.
Check there are no metal objects obstructing the receiver, check its power supply by making sure there’s correct voltage and that the output isn’t powering too many things, and extend the antenna if possible.
Test in a different location to determine if signal interference is the issue.
If it’s determined to be interference, hardwiring is the best option.

▪ Touch sensor is intermittent

Solution:

Change the batteries.
Check there are no metal objects obstructing the receiver, check its power supply by making sure there’s correct voltage and that the output isn’t powering too many things, and extend the antenna if possible.
Test in a different location to determine if signal interference is the issue.
If it’s determined to be interference, hardwiring is the best option.

▪ The automatic door isn’t opening when the touch sensor is activated

Solution:

If the relay in the receiver is clicking when the touch sensor is activated:

Check the wiring from the receiver to the auto door operator. Check the operator is in automatic mode. Refer to the manual of the auto door operator or contact the manufacturer.

If the relay in the receiver NOT is clicking when the transmitter or touch sensor is pressed:
