USING remote rig to control power & access.
« 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.
