Extended Long Range Remote (XLR)
The Extended Long Range Remote (XLR) is a solar powered device that has a large number of inputs for various monitoring options and uses UHF radio to communicate with an ITU G2 base station.Key Features
- Large number of input types for varying sensor and output types
- Relay outputs for control solutions. Can be remote controlled by any smartphone
- Typical range 2km
- Optional repeater function (repeats other remotes back to ITU G2)
- Stainless steel weatherproof enclosure and mounting
- Solar or mains powered with backup battery
Typical Configurations
- Installed at pump shed for monitoring of pump faults/signals, water meters, well or tank depth and control of the pump
- Mounted on a travelling effluent irrigator to monitor pipe pressure, wheel speed, GPS for proof of placement, and provide automatic shutoff of pump in case of failure
- Installed at a high point as a repeater with weather sensors attached
