Q2. Pokayoke Tools

2-1 Which torque wrenches can the TW-800 series transmitter attach to?
The transmitter can be attached to the "LS" type by Tohnichi Manufacturing and the "MB" type by Nakamura Manufacturing.
There is equipment, such as air wrench models, that requires optional parts and other equipment that cannot be mounted. If you have any questions, please contact your local distributor.
2-2 What is the battery life of the TW-800 series transmitter?
It is about 300,000 uses (TW-800T).
2-3 Can I use the transmitter even in a factory using 2.4 GHz band radio?
The TW-800 series uses arbitrary channels from among 76 channels in the 2,403–2,478 MHz band, and communicates using multiple channels.
Since one communication is completed in a short time (around several tens of milliseconds), it can be used without problems if there is no separate product occupying the same frequency band.
When using many wireless devices in the same area, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, or RFID please consult with your local distributor.
2-4 Is there a transmitter protector?
We provide the TW-510C-1 and TW-510C-2 as protectors when attached to a torque wrench.
For torque wrenches from Tohnich Manufacturing, we recommend the TW-510C-1 for a torque wrench of 50N or less, and the TW-510C-2 for a torque wrench of above 50N.

Q3. Wireless Call Systems

3-1 How many sets can be used in the same area?
The AN920 series can select 16 frequency channels.
In addition, it is possible to set 10 types of set numbers and 10 types of unit numbers for the code details to be transmitted.
Hence, you can use 1,600 sets. (16 types of channels × 10 types of set numbers × 10 types of unit numbers = 1,600 sets).
3-2 Is there a display device (receiver) with a 10–indicator panel?
The AN920 series offer 4–indicator and 8–indicator panel types.
If you need a 10–indicator panel, we recommend using a combination of 4–indicator and 8–indicator panel types. We also provide custom-ordered products.
Please contact your local distributor.

Q4. Remote Control Systems

4-1 What is the receiver output specification?
The output of the RC-242RF and RC-248RF is a MOS-FET relay.
The maximum rated load voltage is AC/DC 30 V and the maximum rated load current is 0.5 A.
4-2 Is the transmitter waterproof?
The RC-24 series are not waterproof.
