The switch output is a simple 1-Amp relay contact
closure that can be used to OPEN and CLOSE a gate,
switch on a light, sound an alarm or any other application
where remote control of an ON/OFF switch is required.
The OUTPOST

Callbox can be programmed to OPEN
and CLOSE the Switch Output when one of the following
programmed conditions is met.
The Callbox can be programmed to alternately OPEN
and CLOSE the switch using a single 2-tone code, or
can be PC programmed for separate OPEN and CLOSE
2-tone codes. Field programming offers nine 2-tone
codes that correspond to field programmable 2-tone
codes available in select RITRON portable and base
radios.
