Dual Dry Contact Digital Inputs
D6 Labs Whisker-Block_3qtr-View_01
General Description
A long-range, 900 MHz, wireless sensor in a durable, transulcent
IP67 case with LED feedback, including two external input channels
for connecting two dry contact sensors. The sensors are prewired to
an included wire bundle, which connects to the Whisker.Block
®
via
an M8 connector. Also included is an internal, on-board, thermistor
with +/- 1°C accuracy. By default, readings are taken every five
minutes and battery life will last over ten years on the included
battery pack.
Power
This Whisker.Block
®
can be powered internally using a 3.7V, 5.2A-H
LiThCl battery pack (10+ years of service life) or 8-24V DC through
Connector 1 pin 1. Select variants are equipped with an internal
5V/18V sensor power supply that can provide up to 30mA to
external sensors; this is available on pin 1 on both connectors when
battery power is used and pin 1 of connector 2 when external DC
power is used.
Range
In an unobstructed, outdoor line-of-site environment, the sensor
should be able to communicate for more than
.8 kilometers
assuming a receiving antenna elevation of
3.0 meters
. If the
receiving antenna is raised to
6 meters
or more, the range should
increase to more than
1.6 kilometers
. Range performance will
degrade if the internal antenna is used; maximum range is achieved
with the external antenna.
