AIR-EAGLE®XLT
900 MHz RF Receiver
MODEL 44UL-2000-DC
DESCRIPTION
The AIR-EAGLE XLTis aUL/CSA approved RF system designedfor
medium to long 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 4 independent relays that can switch 5
amps @ 120VAC or 30VDC. The relays are user programmablefor
momentary or toggle/latching operation and can be directly interfaced with
the customer's equipment or P.L.C. Seven user selectable frequencies
allowmultiple systems to be used in the same area. Capable of receiving
remote signals transmitted from up to 2500 feet away (with the handheld
transmitter) or up to 2 miles away (with thecontact input transmitter),the
Air-Eagle XLT 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 (TER1).
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: (6) #10 thru holes & (4) 1/4-20 thru holes are provided on the
mounted plate to securethe 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).

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 relay de-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 thesame 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 differentsignal is
received from the transmitter, at which time 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
The unit is shipped from the factory with SEL1 switches in the open
positions. All four relays will operate as maintained momentary and unitis
receiving commands on frequency one. If you wish to change these
default settings, follow the instructions onthe table below.
1) Remove power from unit
2) Remove top cover.
3) Select desired relay operation and/or network frequency using table
below.
4) Reattach cover and apply power.
5) Programming is now complete.
