Features

  • Quick and easy installation by wireless pairing procedure using the keyboard pushbuttons.
  • Supplied as standard with a primary working frequency and a secondary working one: by Automatic Channel Switching (ACS), in case of radio interference, the radio communication automatically switches to the secondary frequency, allowing continuous operation for the user.
  • Transmitter featuring 12 indipendent LEDs to give a visual real time feedback on STATUS of the battery and of each relay in the receiver. ("Data feedback" function).
  • Receiver equipped with red and green LEDs to warn receiving transmission status between the transmitter and the receiver unit by signaling via pulse code.
  • Protection degree: RCM is classified IP 65.
  • Extreme temperature resistance: from -25°C to +55°C.
  • Case in nylon PA66 (GF 30%).
  • Featuring "Zero-G" function to prevent the uncontrolled input of commands in specific emergencies: the G sensor can detect if the transmitter receives a hard impact, drops or is trown and deactivate either the complete radio system or only the safety-relevant function relays.
  • Activation of the transmitter protected by an electronic key-code and by an auto shut-off programmable option..
  • Featuring "My key" function to set restricted controlling mode settings depensing on the user (i.e.: limit top speed, Multi-control System, transmitting power and "My drive" function to configurate and activate a spare transmitter quickly by inserting the original battery housing into the spare transmitter.
  • Featuring "Black Box" function to collect the usage data of both transmitter and receiver.

Options

  • Receiver equipped with pull-out terminals for an easy wiring to any system by means of 4 corner brackets, or through fastening to the center nut.
  • Receiving antenna easily suitable to be screwed onto the SMA type connector. On request it's possible to mount an external antenna with 2 or 5 meters cable with a magnetic base.
  • Programmable to work with special functions that can be integrated via software.
  • Supplied with bag, pouch belt and shoulder strap, 1 set of 1.5 V alkaline batteries + 1 spare set and replacement standard button labels.
  • Remote control station available on request with QI wireless charging pad, programming cable, optional labels, 230 V battery charger with 2 sets 2600 mA rechargeable batteries and 230 V - 12/24 V battery charger with USB socket and 2 sets 2400 mA rechargeable batteries.
