1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Linear’s Xtended Range FM receivers and transmitters are designed for use in various
wireless remote control applications. When the Model XR-16 receiver detects a signal
from its companion transmitters, it will verify the digital code, activate the correct output
channel, and trigger the remote device connected to the receiver.
The XR-16 receiver has full supervision capabilities. If the “status” option for a channel
is selected, the receiver expects hourly status signals from that channel’s transmitter.
If these signals cease, the receiver will indicate trouble by activating its status output
after four hours. Contact supervision allows the receiver’s outputs to follow the
transmitter’s inputs, each output staying activated as long as each transmitter input is
activated. Alternately, an “auto-restore” option can be selected in the transmitter,
causing a momentary receiver output each time any transmitter input is activated. If
the transmitter sends a low battery signal, the receiver’s low battery output will activate.
Power for the XR-16 receiver can come from an external 12 VDC power supply (Linear
Model T-1224DC) or from a 12-volt battery. A diode protects the unit from reverse
power polarity. The XR-16 draws about 50 mA standby, and about 350 mA when all
outputs are active. The alarm, low battery and status outputs are solid state and are
capable of switching up to 100 mA @ 24 VDC to ground (programmable as N/O or
N/C). The receiver’s relay can activate with all signals, or just alarm signals. It provides
isolated N/O and N/C relay contacts capable of switching a maximum of 1 Amp @
24 VDC.
Two antennas (sold separately) are available for the XR-16. The Model ANT-1A is an
8-inch “rubber duck” antenna for short range applications (less than 1 mile). The ANT-1
requires a Model CON-180A connector to mate the antenna to the receiver. The Model
ANT-2 is a 3-foot whip antenna for use in long range or difficult installations where more
range from the XR-16 is required. A common 9-foot 1/4 wave CB whip antenna can
also be used with the XR-16 for maximum range.
Two 8-position switches set the unit’s system code. This code must be matched in the
XR-16’s transmitters. There are 65,536 different system codes possible. The two
8-position option switches select the status supervision option for each of the
16 channels.
The receiver is housed in a metal enclosure with an SO-239 antenna connector. Three
displays are visible through a window on the case. The left two displays show the
channel number, the right display shows the condition. The display scrolls through all
the channel numbers with a condition. The right decimal point lights when the receiver
has power. During reception, the center decimal point lights. Two internal test points
are provided for signal strength and audio monitoring.

TRANSMITTERS WILL CAUSE THIS CONDITION WHEN THEY SEND A
VIOLATION SIGNAL. THE CONDITION WILL REMAIN UNTIL A RESTORE
SIGNAL IS SENT, UNLESS THE TRANSMITTER IS SET AS "AUTO
RESTORE". THE TRANSMITTER'S CHANNEL OUTPUT WILL BE FAULTED
AS LONG AS THIS CONDITION IS DISPLAYED.
ANY TRANSMITTER SENDING A LOW BATTERY SIGNAL WILL CAUSE THIS
CONDITION. DISPLAY WILL REMAIN UNTIL A SIGNAL OCCURS FROM THE
SAME TRANSMITTER WITH A GOOD BATTERY.

FROM A TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMED TO A SUPERVISED CHANNEL
FOR FOUR HOURS, THIS CONDITION WILL BE DISPLAYED. DISPLAY WILL

TRANSMITTER.
