Title: USING remote rig to control power & access.
Post by: W5AP on 2012-09-08, 00:30:46

I have a pair of K3 RRC-1258 MkII.  Now I want to be able to remove/apply power for the station remotely as well as run a rotator and steppir antenna. Any suggestions or diagrams. Which would be a better approach ie to get a RRC 1216H or 1216 Webswitch. Or is there any difference? I believe I have one comm port left on the RCC 1258 to perhaps power a relay for station power. Has anyone done this?   TIA,  Jim

JIM,
Look for my K9AY posting.
You can control 3 IN/OUTputs via relays or simular

For controlling AC power receptacles remotely, I use Digital loggers webswitch:

I can turn everything off remotely (except router of course).

Why spend money on other hardware if the possibility
is available in RRC1258?

You only need a solid state switch (3-20vdc in and 250VAC with 40 Amps load ) a the remote site

Yes, but those examples are dated back when the corruption already had happened, and since I could not find a way of restoring them they still are corrupted.

Tnx Jim,

BTW for those that need AC switching on the radio site replace the relays or optocoupler with Solid State Switch
and your done

I own the Digital-Logger rack mount device. It's very versatile and frees  up the COM ports on the RRCs for other things. I can program it to turn the remote devices on automatically in a certain sequence. Plus, I don't need a COM port at all. It's web ready.
