Teken Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Does the trigger linc also provide a one time alert like its 2420 motions sensor brother when it is in a low battery state? Teken . . .
LeeG Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 No. The TriggerLinc does not have a low battery signal.
Teken Posted February 4, 2012 Author Posted February 4, 2012 No. The TriggerLinc does not have a low battery signal. Really? Damn it !! Teken . . .
LeeG Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Motion Sensor is the only RF device that does. RemoteLinc, RemoteLinc2, TriggerLinc, do not.
Teken Posted February 4, 2012 Author Posted February 4, 2012 Motion Sensor is the only RF device that does. RemoteLinc, RemoteLinc2, TriggerLinc, do not. I am going to place that as the next upgrade that needs to incorporated into these devices in the SH forum. Its 2012 now, this should be part and parcel and basic 101 for such devices . . .

ELA Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Good question Teken, I had not thought about that before. Now that you asked I wonder if that might be a bit of a challenge since the triggerlinc runs on one 1.5V battery. I examined the Motion Sensor battery sense circuit recently. No problem there since it runs on 9V. There is a large margin from 9V down to 6.8V before a low battery is detected. It might be a bit tricky setting the threshold for 1.5V operation?

Hrmmm that is a good point ELA. 1.5 volts isn't a large margin for the battery to go low. But, I believe it could still be done if they wanted to. The basic principle is still the same to monitor the voltage drop. I did however place my thoughts in the idea thread in the SH forum. Even if its in vain, but hey at least its up there for others to ponder or at least know that these devices do not incorporate any such feed back electronics. Teken . . .
