Introduction
The CommandPro
®
Wireless Control Systems are designed for control of industrial and commercial equipment.
These rugged controls are built to survive the wear and tear of life in factories, mills, and construction industries.
The 23 Series is designed especially for the mobile markets. These systems comply with requirements for
operation under Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Regulations. This means neither the operator nor the company
need apply or register for a license to operate this equipment.
The basic system consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter sends commands to the receiver by
means of radio waves in the 900 MHz band. Receivers operate from 12 VDC vehicle power. Operation from 24
VDC is also available.
4.1
ID Codes
Each transmitter and receiver can be programmed for any one of 81 operating frequencies, plus a 16-bit address
code. A single ID Code is used to set and identify both the frequency and address. There are millions of codes so
that no two systems will ever be assigned the same code unless specifically requested for a particular application.
Each system is fully programmed and tested before shipment from the factory and should require reprogramming
only in the case of spare management (see
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
4.2
Programming
One of the key features of the decoder is Cattron
’s exclusive Manufacture Application Program (MAP). The MAP
determines how the outputs are directed, what type they are, how they operate, what safety criteria is required,
and what processing time should be used for each one. In short, the MAP allows Cattron to match the control
requirements of almost any system. Cattron programs the MAP at the factory.
4.3
Programming Accessories
A stand-alone, portable handheld programmer, RAC16A, is available for most applications. It provides a
convenient method for changing the ID Code and making basic application changes to transmitters and receivers.
4.4
AutoLink
Some receivers are provided with the AutoLink system which allows the receiver to copy the ID code from any of
the 23 Series transmitters by the push of two buttons.

Options
•
Custom Labels
.
Custom labels are available from the Cattron factory to best suit your application.
•
Custom Programming
.
Output relays can be programmed to meet special control requirements.
•
First-Come-First-Serve (FCFS)
.
The First-Come-First-Serve option allows use of multiple transmitters
with one receiver, one at a time. The receiver scans a preset list of ID Codes. When a valid signal is
received, the receiver stops scanning and responds only to that transmitter’s signal. When the signal is no
longer being received (i.e., the transmitter has been turned off or is out of range), the receiver again
scans until another valid signal is received.
•
Multiple Receivers Controlled by Multiple Transmitters
.
One transmitter can control up to a maximum
of six receivers with a rotary selector switch.
•
Extended Range Antenna
.
An extended range 900 MHz antenna, Model RCA7, is available for special
applications that require increased range.
