Question from customer:

I need to remotely control two on/off solenoids and two linear actuators on my truck. They are all actuated by 24V power supply in my truck. Do you have a system that will do this?

Answer:

We recommend the model of 4 channel multi-mode 24V remote control (S4U-DC24+C-4). This kind of remote control is 4 channels with multi-modes, which includes toggle, momentary, latched and momentary+toggle. It is flexible choice for you. You can choose the 24V actuated remote control since there is 24V power in your truck. The working distance is about 100M.

Then connect 2 linear actuators to channel 1 and 2 in parallel, connect two on/off solenoids to channel 3 and 4 respectively. You can set the receiver to Momentary (Channel 1~2) + Toggle (Channel 3~4) control mode.

The wiring is just a little complicated. Please see the wiring diagram below, B is common terminal. Each linear actuator motor is supposed to be connected to B terminals of relay 1&2. A is normally closed terminal and C is normally open terminal. Connect terminal C to the positive and connect terminal A to the negative. Each solenoid is connected to B&C terminals of relay 3&4.

After wiring, you can control them by the transmitter C-4.

Press and hold button 1, linear actuators move forward together, release the button 1, linear actuators stop together.

Press and hold button 2, linear actuators move backward together, release the button 2, linear actuators stop together.

Press button 3, turn on solenoid 1. Press button 3 again, turn off solenoid 1.

Press button 4, turn on solenoid 2. Press button 4 again, turn off solenoid 2.

Question from customer:

Hello, I’m hoping you can assist me with product selection. What I’m hoping I can do is use one of your long range remote control systems to control the zones in an irrigation controller. The irrigation controller and irrigation zones operate on 24VAC.

I think that your product S8CA-DC12-ANT2+CB-8 would work for my needs if the relays were 24V AC instead of 120V AC. Attached is a diagram of how I’m envisioning it all working.

Answer:

8 Channel long range remote control is designed to be normally open and close connection. So all relays in this receiver can work at 24VAC. We add external extended antenna in the receiver in order to extend the range of remote controlling. It is estimated that the working distance of remote reach 2000M in the open filed.

There is 8 channel for your irrigation zones. According to your diagram, you can wire the irrigation zones and receiver as follow.

We supply receiver with other power so that no interference will generate between remote control and irrigation controller.

There are 8 working modes. You can choose any of them as you want. You can use one transmitter to open and close irrigation zones remotely.
