KEYTROLLER, LLC releases its newest member of a family of forklift safety devices. ZONETROLLER - an infrared transmitter mounted over a zone boundary and an IR receiver/relay unit mounted to the forklift. ZONETROLLER IR Zone Control System consists of 2 components: - ZONE-IR--TMR: Transmitter consists of 2 banks of Infrared LEDs pointing to each side of the front of the transmitter. It is mounted 6' (2 meters) above door/zone boundary----pointing down at boundary. LED indicator lights assist in set up
- ZONE-IR--RCR: Infrared receiver (mounts to overhead guard of each forklift)

How it works:- Transmitter broadcasts IR light to each side of the boundary below it
- One side of the boundary is "lit up" with IR light at lower frequency
- Other side of the boundary is "lit up" with IR light at a higher frequency
- Receiver on forklift picks up IR signal and detects moving from one zone to another by frequency
- When zone changes, the receiver turns on/off a relay which can control different options
OPTIONS FOR CONTROL: - With External Alarm: Turn on siren alarm when in restricted zone (off in safe zone)
- With LCD-601: Turn on auxiliary input to Keytroller LCDH-601 device when in restricted zone (off in safe zone)
- Input will shut down vehicle via Keytroller in X# (programmable) seconds
- With KEYTROLLER LCD-601: Turn off speed sensor pulses to Keytroller LCDH-601 device when in restricted zone (device shows NO speedometer)
- Turn on speed sensor to Keytroller LCDH-601 when in safe zone (device shows speedometer with speed limit)
- With SPEED-SAVER EL: Turn on and off two separate high speed setpoints---this is used on forklifts with electronic throttles
- With SPEED-SAVER Cable: Turn on and off SPEED SAVER device for controlling top speed---this is used on forklifts with cable type throttles
INFRARED TRANSMITTER- Plug in device 12VDC plug in power supply into 110VAC outlet to power transmitter
- Mount transmitter over zone boundary (example: over door----inside "safe" zone----outside "restricted" zone)
- Device transmits two different IR signals ---one in "safe zone" and a different one in "restricted zone".
INFRARED RECEIVER- Connects to vehicle power supply and mounts externally to vehicle
- Receiver reads IR input for OK "safe" zone, when 2nd IR signal is detected it recognizes it's moved to restricted zone--relay actuated
