System Overview
Topology
Functionality
The inductive coupler system consists of a Base- as well as a Remote-Unit and allows a signal
transmission by an air gap. If the Remote is in the transmission range of the Base the signal is
transmitted via. inductive coupling and the digital signal is transmitted to the control unit. At the
same time the Base unit powers the Remote unit with the required operating voltage (depence
on distance and angular offset of Base and Remote). The inductive coupling between Base
and Remote is displayed via. the signal “In Zone” at the LED. The signal “In Zone” will be
transmitted to the control unit.
The inductive coupler system has an internal temperature monitoring which protects the
system from overheating. After triggering the temperature monitoring the automatic restart
takes place as soon as the system has cooled down. For visualization of the operating state
LED´s are integrated in Base- and Remote-Unit.
