WARNING
SAFETY PROCEDURES
Safety is an extremely high priority in every remote control system designed and
manufactured by Remtron. Although every effort has been made to provide a product
with the most complete array of safety features, each application has its own unique
requirements.
Remtron and its agents cannot be held responsible, for any breach of safety,
carelessness, improper or unauthorized use of the remote control system or the
equipment it is intended to control. Each customer is responsible for safe and proper
use of the equipment. Each customer is also responsible that the employees involved
with this equipment know, understand and use proper installation, operating and
maintenance procedures and that they are aware of and adhere to all established
safety rules and regulations as they apply.
1.1 INTRODUCTION
1.3 TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION
The RCS200 is a digital remote control system
for applications that require a high level of reliability
and integrity. It is designed for short range, license
free operation of industrial and commercial
equipment.
The transmitter is housed in a plastic case with
membrane switches for control inputs. Inputs are
encoded by a microprocessor and transmitted
using burst mode ASK.
Figure 1-1 shows a block diagram of the

The Transmitter IC has a sleep mode which is
used to conserve battery power. Each time a
packet is sent, the transmitter is enabled 6 m-sec
before modulation is applied to allow it to stabilize.
After the data is sent, the transmitter again enters
the sleep mode. The transmitter is therefore
enabled approximately 20% of the time it is

1.4 RECEIVER DESCRIPTION
relays are factory programmed for the desired
operation. The simplest configuration closes each
relay as long as the corresponding switch on the
transmitter is depressed. Complex and interactive
relay logic is possible.
Safety Features
Each transmission goes through several checks
to insure that the information being received is
error free, including a 16 bit CRC test.
The receiver consists of an ASK receiver and a
microprocessor with up to four output relays. The Over 16 million address codes means that no two
