Wireless remote switch
The standard transmitter unit supplied with WERMA’s WIN wireless monitoring system transmits the status change in the Andon light to the WIN software, allowing users to collect machine or workstation performance data. Now the new “Slave Control” receiver unit offers a ‘command’ function for the first time.
A typical application for the new unit is head of line function on packing lines/benches. Using simple rules in the WIN software, the slave control receiver allows you to remotely activate individual lights on an Andon light tower, according to the status of monitoring Andon lights out in the production area. In this way, a supervisor can be immediately notified by a single ‘repeater Andon light.
Additionally, when the slave control receives commands to change the output of attached Andon lights, it is also able send these outputs to external switched terminals. By using these outputs, external systems can receive control signals according to the status of the Andon lights on machines and workstations in the production area.
