WPR-DS
Introduction
Functions and Features
The Crestron
®
WPR-DS docking station is a companion product for the Crestron
WPR-48 waterproof wireless handheld remote. The WPR-DS is also available in an
international version, the WPRI-DS. All features are identical with the exception of
the supplied power pack (PWI-1210) for the international version. Refer to “Power
Source” on page 4 for more information.
NOTE
: For simplicity, information in this guide applies to both the WPR-DS and
the WPRI-DS, except where noted.
The WPR-DS functions primarily as a charging station for the WPR-48’s built-in
lithium-ion battery. Recharge of the WPR-48 battery takes up to 1.5 hours. As long
as the contacts of the WPR-48 and the WPR-DS remain together, the WPR-DS
“trickle charges” the WPR-48 in an attempt to maintain the handheld remote at full
charge for optimum performance. The duration of a “trickle charge” is continuous as
long as the WPR-48 is not fully charged.
The WPR-DS also functions as an interface to a PC via the RS-232 port, for
uploading of new firmware and configuring the WPR-48.
