FAQ

Is it possible to supply Orion with 400 V?

No, it is not possible. 230 V AC is the maximum possible voltage.

What is the purpose of the ON/OFF button?

Switching the transmitter on and off, thus preventing any unintentional actions on the function buttons.

Is Orion a safety radio remote control?

No, it is not. It is a reliable remote control whose stop button bears no certification. It is not intended to be used on dangerous machines or applications. Other series might be used for such applications.

Could several Orion transmitters address the same receiver?

Yes, if the safety analysis requires no certified safety stop. However, one should pay attention to the possible simultaneous operations.

How does one integrate the receiver into an electric cabinet?

There are several options: either as a wall-mounted receiver or DIN-rail receiver. Pay attention to installing the antenna outside the cabinet for proper signal propagation.

Are stickers supplied with Orion radio remote control?

Yes, several standard stickers are supplied as well as blank stickers for customization.

What is the maximal range?

It depends on the environment.
The range will vary according to the environmental conditions, the position of the reception antenna and the orientation of the transmitter (the range
will be lower in the event of metal obstacles such as: frameworks, partitions, enclosures, etc.).
The average range is 200 m in unobstructed areas, 50 m in typical industrial environments.

How long do the batteries last?

It depends on the usage.
