Typical Applications

The signal sent by the PRC Long-Range Handheld

Series transceiver. When a button is pressed

on the transmitter, a corresponding line on the

transceiver goes high. This is then connected to

external circuitry to perform whatever function is

required by the application.

The transmitter and transceiver must first learn

each other's addresses. This is done by taking

the PAIR line high on the transceiver, typically

with a pushbutton switch. At the same time, the PAIR button is pressed

on the back of the transmitter, typically with a paper clip or similar probe.

The MODE_IND line on the transceiver and the LED on the back of the

transmitter begin flashing, indicating that the Pair Process has been

started. The devices automatically find each other and swap addresses.

The MODE_IND line and LED flash to indicate that the process was

successful and the devices are ready to use.

being used as a receiver only. The C0 and C1 lines are pulled to ground,

setting all of the status lines as outputs.

The MODE_IND line is connected to an LED to provide visual feedback to

the user that an action is taking place.

The PAIR line is connected to a pushbutton switch for activating the Join

Process.

The ACK_EN line is pulled to supply so that the module will send an

acknowledgement as soon as it receives a signal. Alternatively, this line can

be connected to external circuitry to take the line high when an action has

taken place. For example, a circuit can take the line high when a motor has

actually stopped or a door has actually locked. This way the LED on the

handheld lights up only when the desired action has occurred.
