The remote control unit (REM) is an electronic card that communicates with the Q500 rectifier, up to 100 meters away, via serial communications (through CRS-ASCII or Modbus-RTU protocol) or analogue control.

It is a versatile unit with a simple and functional operating interface which enables to control the external hardware of the welding system (pedal, approach contact, etc.) and lead in the meantime the power inverter. It can be easily installed on a synoptic lectern and it is custom-programmed upon request.

INCLUDED:
> A mounting frame or a plastic case
> An operator control panel which includes:
- 8 keys
- 8 LED indicators
- 4 lines by 16 characters display

REM Software Available
Software Rev Product Description
R30HSW3C 1:02 HSW Up to 32 different welding waveforms (max 3 phases each) can be saved. The software also handles all the required HSW system input/output signals. Connection to the HSW machine is through the RS232 serial connection working at 19200 bauds.
R30HSWCC 1:01 HSW Special software for a machine working in a system with a load cell. Up to 25 different welding waveforms (max 3 phases each) can be saved. The software also handles all the required HSW system input/output digital and analogue signals for measuring crushing forces (Newton/meter). Connection to the HSW machine is through the RS232 serial connection working at 19200 bauds.
R30AWSMB 1:01 AWS Standard software which handles all required arc welding system (AWS) input/output digital and analogue signals.
