Remote control transmitters need no licence
RF Solutions has launched a series of rugged, licence-exempt hand-held radio transmitter encoders for remote control applications designed to operate in harsh and outdoor environments
The DIN rail mounted receiver and decoder is able to 'learn' up to 50 transmitter encoders.
It has 16 available outputs arranged as 4 x 4 connectors, into which a choice of relay and dimming modules can be plugged.
Outputs can be configured to be momentary, latching, dimming, or timed for between 5 and 15s.
Transmitter switches can be easily set to any output channel, and each has LED indication.
The first of the two available radio transmitter encoders is the 204 series.
This has a range of approximately 50m and is housed in an enclosure measuring just 96 x 47 x 23mm.
It is available in either 4 or 8/16 switch options.
The 8/16 version has a shift key that enables selection of either 1 to 8 or 9 to 16.
Visual indication of selection is given by the transmit LED illuminating either red or green.
The unit is supplied with a wall mounting holster and power is supplied by a single 3V lithium cell.
For applications requiring longer range, a second transmitter encoder, the 206 series, is able to work at a distance of up to 500m from the receiver decoder.
It also offers 4, and 8/16 switch options, and has a PP3 battery to provide power.
The DIN rail remote control system does not require a radio licence and is able to operate at temperatures between 0 and +55C.
