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.

Case

The FMR1510812R, FMR1510824R can be supplied without a case, this allows the receiver to be integrated according to your needs.

The C160 case (weather proof) can be used to enclose the FMR1510812R, FMR1510824R receiver. The receiver with a case is known as FMR1510812RE, FMR1510824RE.

Different Modes for each Output
Modes are user selectable from the 4-way dip switch, shown below.

DIP Switch Mode Settings
The output relay will respond in the following manner when receiving the correct signal from a transmitter
"All Momentary": Relay on, only while correct signal is received
"All Flip-Flop": Outputs alternate at every correct incoming signal
"Momentary & Flip-Flop": Outputs 1-4 are momentary & 5-8 are flip-flop
"Latching on": Outputs will be on until supply to receiver is momentarily interrupted
"Momentary & Flip-Flop": Outputs 1-6 are momentary & 7-8 are flip-flop
"Momentary & Flip-Flop": Outputs 1-2 are momentary & 3-8 are flip-flop
"Momentary & Flip-Flop": Outputs 1-3 are momentary & 4-8 are flip-flop
"Latching on": Output 1 is latching & 2-8 are momentary
"Latching on": Output 1-7 is latching & 8 is momentary.
Mode added on 21/05/07

 

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.

Signal Strength Indicator

The 151MHz receivers have five blue LED’s on the board. The table below indicates the level of the valid transmitted signal.

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.
