Limitless™ WGLA Global Limit Switches
Wireless position sensing & presence/absence detection
|
The Honeywell Limitless™ WGLA Series Global Limit Switches
combine the best of
MICRO SWITCH™ global limit switches
with the latest off-the-shelf
wireless
technology. The
Honeywell Limitless
series can be used for
position sensing
and presence / absence
detection
in
remote monitoring
applications where wiring or wire maintenance is not physically possible or economically feasible. The
Honeywell Limitless WGLA Series Global Limit Switches
are based on 802.15.4 point-to-point communications and can
be configured to potentially allow up to sixteen devices to
communicate with one receiver module.

FAQs
What about battery life? All battery life depends on usage and
operating temperature. The more diagnostics added, the higher the
battery drain. Honeywell's switches average 1 - 3 years of battery life
and feature a low battery signal.
What about wireless signal range? Limitless devices have a 305 m/1000 ft. line-of-site range without using repeaters, depending on antenna type.
Is there potential for cross-talk from other wireless devices? Each
paired switch and receiver uses a unique security key. So there is
virtually no chance for cross-talk with another system in close
proximity.
What if the RF signal is lost or interrupted between the Limitless switch and the monitor / receiver? The
Limitless Series repeatedly attempts to re-establish the RF
communication link until successful and at the same time will notify
the user that there is an insufficient RF signal.
How does Honeywell plan to protect an investment in wireless? Honeywell
has developed the Limitless switch software to ensure that a device you
install today will be able to communicate with replacement, additional,
and new devices in the future.
