FREQUENCY HOPPING SPREAD SPECTRUM
RANGER SERIES
RADIO REMOTE CONTROLS
Model # FHSR-B
Developed for industrial OEM applications requiring interference-free, fail-safe machine control. Up to twelve wireless commands via BASE Engineering’s proprietary ‘Safe-Link’ communication protocol. Operator handheld and machine mounted transceiver continuously communicate to ensure signal validity and strength. Any loss of signal results in all active functions automatically shutting down and failing safe. Common uses include latched pumping operations, high-pressure ‘jetter’ operations, concrete construction equipment, mobile crane operations, or any other application where maintained operator control is critical.
System incorporates a secure frequency-hopping, spread-spectrum radio link that greatly reduces outside electrical or RF interference. Active channels fail safe (shut-down) with any loss of signal from transmitter. Rechargeable transmitter delivers 30 hrs of continuous use between charges (charger supplied). Optional ‘Enable’ button requires two deliberate steps before signal is sent (Enable plus command signal). Up to twelve pre-programmed high-side or low-side functions available. Interface to OEM electronic controls can be simplified with factory installed, direct-plug connectors or through J1939 serial communication (other protocols available). Optional pre-wired solenoids are available for Pneumatic, Hydraulic, or Electromechanical machine control interface. Modular components allow for easy installation and field replacement

Handheld transmitters are available with one through twelve buttons and corresponding receiver units are available with several output and range options. Outputs can be selectively interlocked to other operations for safety reasons and outputs can be sequenced with time delay or auto shut-off if required- Optional receivers available to handle higher amperage loads, mix of high side and low side voltage, and dry contact relay outputs. Specify the “H” receiver for these applications and the “CP” receiver for fully potted electronics. Please call our factory support staff at -800-924-1010 to specify the correct model number for your application
