Wireless remote controls

A global player in radio remote controls, engine and generator control panels, plus cloud-based monitoring and control solutions, has announced the North American market availability of the Tyro 2S line. The wireless remote control systems suit mobile, construction and material handling equipment and, with IP65 to IP68 ratings, resist shock, impact, dust, moisture and water. The 2S generation spans Cetus, Fornax, Musca and Pyxis transmitters plus Aquarius, Auriga and Scorpius receivers.

Tyro Pyxis 2S

The Tyro 2S line supports a range of frequencies, including 915 MHz for North America. Universal compatibility ensures series devices can be used seamlessly throughout different regions to control a variety of diesel engines and electric or hydraulic motors, providing reliable connectivity across a broad swath of equipment types. Customers can personalize their transmitters with specific icons and symbols that match their equipment’s control interfaces, enhancing safety and ease of use. Tyro 2S systems offer advanced features such as one-button pairing, allowing operators to quickly pair a new transmitter with the receiver, minimizing downtime. This is particularly beneficial in mobile applications where equipment may be frequently moved or lost. Additionally, the systems support multiple transmitters per receiver and vice versa, providing multiple users with flexibility and redundancy in their operations.

The Tyro 2S systems are available with an LCD screen that displays real-time feedback from the connected equipment. This feature is particularly valuable in applications like concrete pumps, stone crushers and other heavy machinery where monitoring parameters such as oil temperature, fuel levels and operational speeds is crucial. The integration with CANbus systems allows for seamless communication between the remote control and the machinery, enhancing operational efficiency and safety. Machine-to-machine programing is also an option. — Cattron North America Inc., Warren, Ohio; www.cattron.com
