SmaRT BU-xH8D Base Unit
The BU-xH8D base units are the output/input modules of a SmaRT Remote Control System. A
basic SmaRT control system consists of at least one Smart wireless remote transmitter, a BU-
xH8D base unit, and the wiring harness that connects the base unit to the controlled apparatus.
A single base unit can communicate with up to eight individual SmaRT handheld remote units,
depending on remote control type. The rugged construction, compact size, and multiple
output/input versatility allow SmaRT Systems to be used for many applications that require
remote operation. A BU-xH8D base unit module can be chosen for 900MHz (BU-9H8D) or
2.4GHz (BU-2H8D) remote control systems.
