Wireless Transmitter - RC-PLC
The RC-PLC Wireless Transmitter is the perfect way to quickly and easily integrate a wireless stack light into a PLC system. By connecting directly to the PLC, this product ensures secure wireless transmission. This Wireless module can be used to control the RC line of Lights. These are often used on existing machinery that needs a light located remotely from the machine. For instance, you could have a CNC machine with a stack light on the machine and another light located in a maintenance or manager's office. If the Andon light on the CNC machine goes on, the light in the other room will turn on. The normal range for wireless products is 100-150 feet. This range can be affected by walls and other obstacles. To extend the range Stack-Light.com uses a Mesh system. This means that the messaging can be passed between devices to extend the range. All of the Stack-Light Wireless products can act as a repeater except for the battery-powered Andon controller. The Mesh system not only extends the range but also makes the Wireless Andon System more robust. The Mesh Network works independently of a facility's Wi-fi. This makes it easy to install this system without the need to involve the IT department. We will work with you to design a system that is perfect for your application. The Wireless system will be programmed for you at our facility so that it is plug-and-play out of the box. The system can be reprogrammed in the future if you need to make changes and we are here to provide support if needed. The RC-PLC system can control Multiple Wireless stack lights. For instance, you could have a system with a stack light placed on both sides of a building with a Wireless Andon PLC located in the center of the building. The inputs on the RC-PLC could be activated to turn on both Stack Lights at the same time. We are always happy to help select or design an Andon system for your application.
