PRL-1600C C Series Wireless Pulse Link System Technical Manual Revision: C1 Date: 12/15/2023 Solid State Instruments A division of Brayden Automation Corporation 6230 Aviation Circle Loveland, CO, USA 80538 (970)461-9600 e-mail: support@brayden.com...
Introduction The PRL-1600C Pulse Radio Link is a Transmitter and Receiver system that wirelessly sends up to four channels of KYZ pulses from the transmitter to a paired receiver. The short-hop PRL-1600C has a range of up to 5,000 feet depending on site topography and solves the problem of getting pulses across parking lots, vacant lots, roads, railroad tracks or other obstacles.
Packet Transmissions and Receptions are visually indicated with LEDs on both base and radio/antenna units. SOLID STATE INSTRUMENTS a division of Brayden Automation Corp. 6230 Aviation Circle, Loveland, Colorado 80538 Phone: (970)461-9600 E-mail:support@brayden.com...
It has been reported that other high-power RF transmitters mounted within close proximity can jam or corrupt the signal even though they are not using the same frequencies.

Troubleshooting and Tech Support 1.) Use shielded 8-conductor control cable between the PRT-16C Transmitter Base Unit and the PRNT-1600C Transmitter/Antenna unit, as well as between the PRR-16C Receiver Base Unit and the PRNR-1600C Receiver/Antenna unit. Solid State Instruments’ part number 0715- 1005 is a the standard indoor-rated 8-conductor #24AWG shielded control cable sold by the foot.
