By
combining the new RF Solutions 102 series encoder
transmitters and 008 series decoder units, engineers
can create a versatile 315-MHz FM remote control system
using the highly secure Keeloq code-hopping protocol.

The
102 series handheld transmitters are available with
one, two, or four switches, and are capable of being
expanded up to 15 switches. The switch overlay itself
can be customized to meet the needs of particular applications.
If required, each encode can be board level programmed
with a specific manufacturer’s ID code.
The
transmitter, which is housed in a tough ABS enclosure,
is FCC compliant. Further features include LED indication
of transmission, a power-saving auto shutoff feature,
and automatic transmission of low battery condition.
Each encoder is supplied with a 9-V battery.
The
008 series decoder is able to work with up to 50 transmitter
encoders, which are configured using an "easy learn"
feature and memorized even if the power to the decoder
is disconnected. The unit features four 1 A at 50-VDC
rated relay outputs. These can be set up to be either
momentary or latching.
The
decoder can be powered by either a 12- or 24-V supply
and housed in a sealed ABS enclosure that is suitable
for outdoor use. The maximum operating range for the
008 series varies from 300˘
to 1200˘ , depending on the
operating frequency selected.
The
102 series transmitters start at $39.95 in 100-piece
quantities for units with one switch. The 008 series
decoder starts at $69.80 in 100-piece quantities.
