Description

The FMT-212E has a 1/2-watt transmission with a current consumption of 600mA .

The FMT-212E is designed to give a controlled range of up to 2km. The controlled operation can be any electronic or electrical operated device when used with the FMR-… series of receivers.

The transmitter uses a specially programmed micro-controller , which ensures the highest reliability, low sleep mode current (10uA) consumption and greater flexibility.

The FMT-212 transmitter is the PCB assembly only, while the FMT-212E transmitter is enclosed in an alloy metal case.

External supply connection and SO239 antenna socket is provided with the transmitter.

The transmitter modes are user selectable by simply setting the 2-Way dip-switch on the transmitter board.

Transmitter Modes

Off Delay 2 – 62 seconds

Transmitter will transmit a 1.5 second transmission burst and then stop for the "off delay" time selected. The "off delay" time is user selectable between 2 to 62 seconds by adjusting trimpot on the transmitter board. If the code changes during the "off delay" period the new code will be transmitted immediately. When the "off delay" time lapses, transmitter will transmit another burst. The transmitter will cycle (transmission and off delay) indefinitely, if at least one code switch from the 12-Way code switch is ON and supply is connected.

Off Delay 1 – 10 minutes

Same as mode 1 except the "off delay" is user selectable between 1 to 10 minutes.

Continues Transmission

Transmitter will transmit continuously, if at least one code switch from the 12-Way code switch is ON and supply is connected. The transmitter will transmit as long as the supply is connected.

1.5 – 10 seconds one burst transmission

Transmitter will transmit one burst and then go to standby or sleep mode. Adjusting the trimpot will vary the burst length. When the code is changed and supply is connected, transmitter will emit one new burst of the new code.
Sleep mode (10 uA) is activated when all 12 code switches are OFF; this applies to all four modes.
