AIR-EAGLE®SR
2.4GHz RF Receiver
MODEL 38UL-20800-DC
DESCRIPTION
The AIR-EAGLE SRis a UL/CSA approved RF system designed for short
to medium range wireless remote control of electrical apparatus in a
variety of industrial applications. Systems canconsist 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 programmable for
momentary or toggle/latching operation and can be directly interfaced with
the customer's equipment or P.L.C. Eight user selectable frequencies
allowmultiple systems to be used in the same area. Capable of receiving
remote signals transmitted from up to 100 feet away (with the SR
transmitter) or up to 600 feet away (with the SR PLUS transmitter), the
Air-EagleSR Receiver utilizes spread-spectrum technology and provides
the utmost security and reliability even in the noisiest RF environments.
Please read through this document in its entirety before proceeding
with installation.
INSTALLATION
DISCONNECT DC Power from all equipment before installation.
1. Mount the control unit in a suitablelocation that allows the user to
easily remove the lid ofthe enclosure for wiring access. When
possible select a locationthat is not directlybeside high energy
transformers or large inductive relay housings. It is recommended to
allow for a minimum of 2.0” clearance on all sides of the unit’s
housing& mounting plate. The power andcontrol wiring exiting thru
the provided cord grips should have ample room to bend without
excessive stress. It is also important that any coax cable connected
to the TNC connector have room to bend without “kinking”.
2. Install relay wiring to terminal strip (TER2).
3. Attach supplied rubber duck antenna to TNC connector on the right
side ofthe unit.
4. Connect DC power to the proper terminals in your control circuit.
Note 1: (4) 1/4-20 thru holes are provided on the mounting feet to secure
the unit)
Note 2: The recommended power/control wire sizes to the terminalstrip
ranges from 24 AWG (0.205mm2) (min) to 18 AWG (0.823mm2) (max).

CONTROLS & INDICATORS
POWER LED
Dualcolor LED. Illuminates red while receiver is
booting up; changes to green when boot-up is
successful and unit is readyto operate. If this LED
fails to turn green, power unit off for 15-20 seconds,
then reapply power.
RELAY LEDS
Illuminated green while relay is energized
DIP SWITCHES
Switches used to set user-selectable options and/or
network frequency
EEPROM CHIP
Socket mounted integrated circuit that holds unit’s
program
RF MODULE
RF Module that sends/receives data from our
transmitters/receivers
RELAY MODES OF OPERATION
Auto Reset (Maintained Momentary)
When signal is received from an authorized transmitter, the relay will
energize. The relay will maintain the energized state as long as the
transmitter is sending the signal. The relayde-energizes when the
transmitted signal stops.
Toggle Reset (Toggle Latch)
When a signal is received from an authorized transmitter, the relay will
energize and latch.The relaystays energized until the same signal is
received again, at which time it unlatches and de-energizes.
Latching Reset (True Latch)
When a signal is received from an authorized transmitter, the relay will
energize and latch.The relaystays energized until a different signal is
received from the transmitter, at whichtime it unlatches and de-energizes.
i.e. –Transmissionfrom Input 1 of authorized transmitter energizes and
latches relay 1. Transmission from Input 2 of an authorized transmitter de-
energizes relay 1.
RELAY & FREQUENCY SET-UP
This unit is shipped from the factory with the SEL1 switches in the open
positions. All eight relays will operate in a maintained momentary manner,
and unit is receivingcommands on frequencyone. If you wish to change
these default settings, followthe instructions on thetable below.
1) Remove power from unit.
2) Remove top cover.
3) Select desired relay operation and/or networkfrequency using table
below.
4) Reattach cover and apply power.
