Description
The 151MHz receivers use dual conversion, narrow band FM which makes it ideal for industrial applications. Built into the receiver is a noise and signal strength indicator. The user selectable frequency synthesizer allows for easy installation on a frequency that is not in use, allowing optimal performance in the receiving range.
The receiver outputs are relays that are voltage free allowing the user to connect any voltage up to 240VAC with currents of 8 amps.
Modes
The four dip switches correspond to the respective relays. Switch 1 for relay output 1, switch 2 for relay output 2 and so forth.
1. Momentary Mode
If the dipswitch is off the relays will be in momentary mode.
2. Flip Flop Mode
If the dipswitch is on the relays will be in flipflop mode.
Coding
The 12 way dip switch on the receiver sets the 12 bit unique code for the system. This has to be matched to that on the transmitter.
Apart from the 12 way dip switch there is an additional 1 way dip switch :
This 1 way DIP switch on the right side of the 12 way dip switch denotes the channels. See table below.
Generally to use a 4 channel Tx to 4 channel Rx match all the 13 dip switch (12way + 1way just on the right side of the 12 way).
To use an 8 channel tx to control 2 x four channel Rx match all the 12 dip switch and switch 13 off will 1 Tx and switch 13 on will use the other Tx.

Noise Strength Indicator
If more than 1 led is “ON” without a valid transmission, this indicates that there is noise on the frequency selected. Change the 3-way dipswitch on the receiver module to select a different frequency.The default setting is for 151.6MHz (All 3 dipswitches “ON”). Below is a table with the Dipswitch settings and the frequencies.
