Description

The GLT2712(E) is designed to give a controlled range of up to 3 kilometres. The controlled operation can be either electronic or electrical operated device when used with the GLR-…. series of receivers.

The transmitter uses a specially programmed MICRO-CONTROLLER, which ensures the highest reliability, low current consumption on sleep mode (10uA) and greater flexibility. The GLT2712 is the transmitter without a case, while the GLT2712E transmitter is enclosed in an alloy metal case, which has an external supply connection, and a SO239 antenna socket provided.

The transmitter modes are user selectable by simply setting the 2-Way dip-switch on the transmitter board. Below is a summary of the modes.

Transmitter Modes

Off Delay 2 to 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 the trimpot of the transmitter board. If another channel is activated during the "off delay" period the new channel 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 channel is activated and the supply is connected.

Off Delay 1 to 10 minutes.

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

Continuous transmission.

Transmitter will transmit continuously, if at least one channel is activated and supply is connected. A transmission limit of five minutes is used to comply with local radio regulations.

To activate a receiver longer than 5 minutes, use a delay off feature in the receiver (GLR2701) and transmitter. The delay off feature in the receiver needs to be set more than the transmitter. This ensures that the transmitter keeps resetting the off delay in the receiver. Refer to Application Note

1.5 to 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 another channel is activated and supply is connected, transmitter will emit one new burst.

Sleep mode (10 uA) is activated when all 8-channels are OFF, this applies to all four modes.

Optional

 

Using the 16-Way ribbon cable (Part # 16W-1) and the 16 pin IC socket to terminal (Part # 8WT) gives the user eight external inputs.

To install follow these steps:

  1. Remove the aluminum lid from the GLT2712E.
  2. Remove the wire link or 8-way code switch from the 16-pin IC socket.
  3. Plug one end of the ribbon cable into the 16-pin IC socket.
  4. Plug the other end of the ribbon cable into the 8WT
  5. File a narrow slot into the aluminum case that has the width of the ribbon cable.
  6. Place the ribbon cable into the slot.

Screw the lid back onto the case.

To use several channels simultaneously, you need to program the transmitter and receiver using the channelised method.

Eight External Inputs - Use 16-way Ribbon Cable
