AutoAnchor 710 Remote Control

Integrates functionality with the installation advantages of wireless technology

The AutoAnchor 710 Remote Control is a wireless remote control for full windlass control and chain counting with the option of thruster operation.

Function Options
A system with one base station (6 outputs) can operate:1 windlass plus a deck wash and deck light or other auxiliary functions or 1 windlass and 1 or 2 thrusters.

IEEE 802.15.4 compliant
Can co-exist with Bluetooth and WiFi networks nearby. The network operates on different channels to the 2.4Ghz WiFi netowrks and offers a high level of security with each item having a Unique ID, and each transmission containing sender and destination information. This ensures that remotes and base station can only send and receive transmissions to and from registered members of their system.

Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) provides further security and immunity
Spread Spectrum signals are highly resistant to noise and interference. The AutoAnchor wireless system scans frequencies within the band before transmisison. This ensures that communication is not attempted on a frequency where there is a lot of existing noise and possible interference. Signal strength is displayed on the remote and operating ranges up to 10m (30ft) from base station.

Remote Environmental Protection
Water resistance designed to meet IP67. Remote enclosure has a rubber seal around the perimeter of the case. Shock protection. Remote enclosure with rubber over-moulding to provide protection against shock. The rubber over-moulding also provides grip in wet conditions, and a non-slip quality in rough sailing condition
