Wireless Automation System with 6 Digital I/O Connections (4+ Mile Range, scalable System)

Description

Remote Control Technology 80660S - The Wireless Automation System (WAS) is a 900MHz radio frequency network with integrated I/Os that can operate in most environments while eliminating the need for wiring runs. Systems are built around a Gateway, which acts as the wireless network master device, and one or more Nodes. Additional Nodes (80660N) can be added to expand the range (4 miles) & capabilities of the Wireless Automation System. Each Node can be connected to a sensor or output device and report back the state of the I/O to the Gateway. The WAS has six discrete inputs, and 6 discrete outputs, with DIP switches for user configuration. The system combines Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology and Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) control architecture to ensure reliable data delivery within the unlicensed ISM bands. The transceivers provide 2-way communication between the Gateway and Node, including fully acknowledged data transmission site survey analyses. Lost RF links are detected, and relevant outputs set to user-defined conditions. Possible Applications: Control of pumps, conveyors, lights alarm systems & more. PLC activation, flow rate & tank monitoring, data logging and wireless automation.
