Attention: open in a new window. | Print |

The MTU821-WTR Radio Tide Stations offer tide fluctuation measurement as well tide fluctuation
monitoring using ‘over-the-air’ messages. They fit in all type of tide telemetry applications due to their rugged
design and the availability of a wide choice of analog and digital input/output ports.


The MTU821-WTR comes in a fiberglass-reinforced polyester splash proof case protected to IP66 and is
designed for outside operation.


All MTU821 units operate as ‘Radio Tide Transmitter’ as well as ‘Radio Tide Receiver'. This eliminates the
need to keep an inventory of separate transmitters and receivers: one box does it all.


Surveyors operating all over the world know very well that operating channels permitted by local authorities
vary widely. Our Radio Tide Stations contain a synthesized wide-band transceiver and channel switching is
only a matter of seconds.


The MTU821-WTR employs a Vyner compatible protocol making combined operation of MTU821, Vyner
MK-II units and CES TGM104 & TGM105 stations possible.


The MTU radio tide stations are modern, microprocessor based systems with large LCD-display and
requiring only a few controls to operate. Station configuration, channel selection and transducer selection are
completely software controlled: no screwdrivers are required to change operating modes, no configuration
jumpers are to be set.


And last but not least: our radio tide stations operate on AC supply as well as on internal battery. The
integrated charger control circuitry allows battery charging using power from AC supply or from solar panel.
The charging electronics prevents overcharging and excessive battery discharging.
