Alge Wtn Wireless Timing Network
Designed for outdoor use, the WTN is a bidirectional radio network that eliminates hardwiring within a timing system. With its adjustable frequency in the 2.4 GB band, all devices in the same wireless network can communicate with each other. It is possible to transmit impulses and data at the same time. The universal WTN can be connected to almost any timing device, impulse device, display board and PC. The WTN is supported by an LCD display, keypad and input/output ports. Three internal AA batteries provide extended use. In developing this unique product, special attention was paid to ease of operation, high reliability and robust design. This advanced technology is integrated into a convenient enclosure for guaranteed dependability and virtually unlimited applications.
