  2. Radio control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_control

    Radio control (often abbreviated to RC) is the use of control signals transmitted by radio to remotely operate a device. Examples of simple radio control systems are garage door openers and keyless entry systems for vehicles, in which a small handheld radio transmitter unlocks or opens doors.

  3. Tone remote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_remote

    This remote control uses a two-wire circuit to control a base station. A General Electric MASTR II remote control and desk microphone. Remote controls are used any time a two-way radio base station is located away from the desk or office where communication originates.

  4. Current loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_loop

    This remote control uses a two-wire circuit to control a base station. Current loop circuits are one possible way used to control radio base stations at distant sites. The two-way radio industry calls this type of remote control DC remote. This name comes from the need for DC circuit continuity between the control point and the radio base ...

  5. Radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio

    Radio remote control is the use of electronic control signals sent by radio waves from a transmitter to control the actions of a device at a remote location. Remote control systems may also include telemetry channels in the other direction, used to transmit real-time information on the state of the device back to the control station.

    Most of these were connected to the set being controlled by wires, but the Philco Mystery Control (1939) was a battery-operated low-frequency radio transmitter, [14] thus making it the first wireless remote control for a consumer electronics device. Using pulse-count modulation, this also was the first digital wireless remote control.

    1:10 scale radio-controlled car (Saab Sonett II)A radio-controlled model (or RC model) is a model that is steerable with the use of radio control (RC). All types of model vehicles have had RC systems installed in them, including ground vehicles, boats, planes, helicopters and even submarines and scale railway locomotives.

    The revolutionary advancement was the “remote control throttle” (not radio control). This consisted of a second line fed from the car, through the pylon and back to the “driver” to control the throttle of the .049 cubic inch, two-stroke gas engine. Remote control by radio was the next step. [19] Wen-Mac/Testors 1966 Mustang 1:11 Scale

  9. Base station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_station

    Remote control base stations can be operated over tone- or DC-remote circuits. The dispatch point console and remote base station are connected by leased private line telephone circuits, (sometimes called RTO circuits), a DS-1, or radio links. [10] The consoles multiplex transmit commands onto remote control circuits.
