1.4 The Installation Kit
In order to effectively and reliably interface to the locomotive controls / operations, various kitted
items are provided to complete the installation. An antenna kit is provided to allow the radio
antenna to be mounted on the locomotive cab. Surge suppressors are provided for installation on
all inductive devices (i.e. solenoid coils, electrical contactor coils, etc.) to minimize Electro
Magnetic Interference (EMI). Optional colored status lights can also be provided to provide visual
indications during remote operations.
1.5 The Lightweight OCU
The lightweight OCU is rugged and durable, with a custom designed encapsulated antenna for
maximum performance. Reliable radio communication distances up to 5200 feet can be achieved
(depending on operating environment). The comfortable ergonomic shape eliminates sharp
corners and puts a wide range of functions within easy reach. The top display panel instantly
shows the operator the current control settings without having to remember the switch movements.
