TH-EC40/LO OPTIONS
Operator vigilance device
The operator vigilance device
can be selected via the transmitter software. It is an equivalent to
the vigilance control system installed on the locomotive.
Unless
the operator does not carry out actions on the transmitter at specific
intervals of time (max. 30 seconds plus 7 seconds warning time) it is
assumed that the operator is no longer controlling the locomotive with
the necessary attention. In this case, the locomotive is brought to an
immediate standstill by a rapid braking.
External transmitter antenna
External
antennas can be required when the portable transmitter is operated at a
fixed place, e.g. inside a control room of a loading station.
The
transmitter can be designed in a way that the receiving signal is
automatically switched from internal to external antenna when the
transmitter is put in the cradle for the fixed operation.
Time Division Multiple Access of Carrier Frequency
This enables up to 3 radio controls to be operated simultaneously and independently of each other on the same transmitter frequency without the involved radio controls mutually affecting or interfering with each other.
Intrinsically safe
In accordance with the ATEX directive
II 2G EEx ib IIC T4 the transmitters of the TH-EC/LO series can be
manufactured for the use in hazardous zones with explosive atmospheres,
category 2, zone 1.
