Long Range Handheld

The Long Range Wireless Switch System Handheld includes a 12-key handheld transmitter and a six-output receiver. The system provides simple, reliable wireless switching from distances up to 2 miles and can be integrated with existing equipment control circuits.

The receiver is supplied with the power supply, relays, and antenna components needed for installation, providing a complete wireless control solution for remotely located equipment.

Operation

To operate the system, select the desired receiver output number on the handheld transmitter and press ON. The transmitter sends a wireless command to the receiver, activating the selected 12 VDC output and its connected external relay.

Pressing OFF sends a second wireless command, deactivating the selected receiver output and returning the connected relay to its normal state.

This allows individual receiver outputs to be controlled remotely from the handheld transmitter without the need for control wire between the operator and the equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far will the Long Range Handheld system operate?
The system can provide wireless control at distances up to 2 miles. Actual operating range depends on terrain, obstructions, antenna installation, and site conditions.

How many outputs can the receiver control?
This Long Range Wireless Switch System Handheld uses a six-output receiver, allowing the handheld transmitter to independently control multiple equipment functions.

How does the handheld transmitter control an output?
The operator selects the desired receiver output number on the transmitter and presses ON or OFF. The corresponding receiver output changes state to operate the connected control relay.

Can this system be used to control a pump?
Yes. Pump control is a common application. The receiver interfaces with the appropriate pump control circuit rather than directly powering the pump motor.

Can it control equipment other than pumps?
Yes. Applications include valves, conveyors, grain augers, motors, lighting, gates, alarms, and other equipment that can be operated through an appropriate control circuit.

Can the receiver be installed outdoors?
Yes. The system can be configured for outdoor installations using an appropriate enclosure and installation practices for the application.

What if utility power isn’t available at the receiver location?
Optional 12 VDC solar panel kits are available for remote locations where utility power is unavailable.
