wireless remote control of electricalapparatus in avariety of industrial
applications. Systems can consist of any number of receivers and
handheld or contact input transmitters working together.This receiver is
equipped with 8 independent relays that can switch 5 amps @ 120VAC or
30VDC. The relays are user programmablefor momentary or
toggle/latching operation andcan be directly interfaced with the
customer's equipment or P.L.C. Eight userselectable frequencies allow
multiple systems to be used inthe same area. Capable of receiving
remote signals transmitted from up to 600 feet away the Air-Eagle SR
Receiver utilizes spread-spectrum technology and provides the utmost in
security and reliability.
