What frequency does the FMR15101240 operate on?
The FMR15101240 operates on 151MHz frequency band with eight frequency channels, ensuring stable and interference‑resistant communication when paired with matching transmitters.
Can the operating frequency be changed?
Yes, the FMR15101240 provides 8 user selectable frequencies within the 151MHz band. These can be adjusted via a 3 way DIP switch on the board, allowing multiple systems to operate in the same vicinity without interfering with one another.
What type of output does the FMR15101240 provide?
The receiver includes a relay output rated at 8 Amps at 240VAC, allowing it to switch motors, lights, and other electrical loads.
What relay modes are available on the FMR15101240?
The FMR15101240 supports multiple relay modes, including:
- Momentary: The relay is active only while the transmitter button is pressed.
- Latching: The relay switches ON with one press and OFF with the next.
- Delayed OFF: The relay remains active for the duration of time set by the trimpot.
- Security Latching: The relay stays active until power to the receiver is manually removed.
These modes allow the receiver to be configured for different control requirements.
How do I program a transmitter to work with a FMR15101240?
The system uses a 12-way DIP switch for digital coding. To pair the devices, simply match the 12-way DIP switch settings on the FMR15101240 to those on your transmitter. It is recommended to change these from the factory default for security.
What is the typical operating range of the FMR15101240?
When paired with a compatible Elsema transmitter and the ANT151M antenna, the FMR15101240 can achieve long‑range operation up to 5,000 metres depending on the transmitter used. Actual range depends on antenna setup and surrounding conditions.
