The RF Solutions 118 system is designed to provide simple, low cost remote control in numerous applications including: outdoor lighting, garage door operation and powered window opening.
Two PP3 batteries power each unit and a power saving auto shut off feature ensures maximum battery life.
The units automatically transmit a battery low warning when batteries near the end of their working life.
The 103 transmitters utilise the Arizona Microchip 67-bit 'Keeloq' code hopping protocol to ensure totally secure transmission and are available in three licence-exempt frequency options.
Units operating at 433MHz have a range of 200m while transmitters based on the 458MHz frequency band can transmit over distances of up to 6000m.
A third 433MHz 'narrow band' option offers an operating range of 1000m.
All units feature an on-board LED to indicate when transmission is taking place.
Combined with one of the RF Solutions family of off-the-shelf decoders, the new transmitters can deliver a complete, high-security code hopping remote control system.
Alternatively, the transmitters can be used with customer-specific decoding solutions based on Microchip PIC processors.
In addition to the standard products, RF Solutions is also able to develop custom transmitters based on the 103 technology.
