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
Each unit is supplied in an IP65-rated TASTOMAT enclosure and uses the Arizona Microchip 67-bit 'Keeloq' code-hopping protocol to ensure totally secure data transmission.
Available in licence-exempt frequency options of 173, 418, 433, 458 and 868MHz, the new transmitter encoders offer operating distances of between 200 and 6000m depending on the particular model chosen.
The units are supplied ready for use and can be pre-configured with up to 15 different switches based on specific application requirements.
The new 107 series radio transmitter encoders are fully compatible with the RF Solutions range of 'off-the-shelf' decoders and can also be used with custom-built Keeloq decoders based around Arizona Microchip's PIC processor family.
Each 107 unit is powered by two PP3 batteries.
A power saving auto shut off feature ensures maximum battery life, while automatic transmission of a battery low warning informs the user when to replace the batteries.
