INTRODUCTION
The AM-RPR remote proximity receiver is designed for use with Linear’s
Model AM/II access control system. The AM-RPR functions as a remote
device that supplies localized radio reception for the AM/II.
In a typical installation, the AM-RPR would be mounted in a
plastic
single-gang
electrical box next to the controlled opening. When the user requires access,
their transmitter must be activated within three inches of the AM-RPR
faceplate. The ultra-short range of the AM-RPR allows placement of a unit by
each controlled opening without the possibility of the transmitter being
detected by the wrong receiver.
A two-color indicator on the AM-RPR faceplate displays the receiver’s status.
The indicator lights red when the receiver is getting DC power from the AM/II
and turns green when access is granted to a transmitter.
The AM-RPR remote proximity receiver connects to the AM/II control unit
through a six-wire cable. A small ferrite “doughnut” is supplied for the wiring
to reduce radio reception in the wires. A rotary switch in the AM-RPR selects
the device address for the receiver. Each remote device connected to the
AM/II must be set to a different device address. Power is supplied to the
receiver from the AM/II.
A special test mode can be selected to test the radio reception. When the unit
is powered and the device address selector is set to 7, activating a transmitter
in range of the receiver causes the test beeper to sound and the indicator to
blink.

IMPORTANT !!!
Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need
in portable wireless signalling. However, there are some limitations which must be
observed.
✶
For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15
devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
✶
A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals
that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
✶
Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.
✶
Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.
✶
A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or
dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
