RF-TRP-4BUTTON-TX

Wireless Interface of 4 GPIO to one or more BrightSigns

 

RF 4BUTTON TRANSMITTER

Note: Antenna Included!

 

This board set is used to 'remote control' one or more BrightSigns with the RF-TRP-LOC-4B (receiver).

Order adapter TB12-DB15 for connection to legacy BrightSigns with DB15 GPIO connector

Fixed address.  Contact HMS Electronics 'Technical Support' if you require custom addresses due to close proximity of wireless sets!

Operation:

This 'Local' unit transmits two times when any 'GPIO' changes states.  The state of the GPIO pins of the BrightSign are reflected to the LED's for a visual verification that the GPIO of the BrightSign pin states.

The 'Receiver' (connected to the BrightSign) drives 1 to 4 of the GPIO pins low corresponding to the transmitted 'GPIO byte' from the remote.  The receiver connects to a Phoenix terminal block (not provided) and plugs into the back of the BrightSign. Order the receiver separately!

Note: The transmitter receiver 'TRP' modules have LED's to indicate the state of the module.  When transmitting the 'Red LED' is on.  When receiving the 'Green LED' is on.

Note: For reliability the communication consists of 3 bytes.  Address, GPIO byte, Checksum.  This protocol improves reliability and provides for custom addressing if required.

Note: The 6 pins of the 'Local' board can be connected to a 6 pin or to a 12 pin Phoenix connector.  The upper GPIO's (4 thru 7) can be used if plugged in to the BrightSign connector in that manner.

Note: Order the phoenix connector seperately!
