Brief rain showers during + a launch should pose no problem, but it's recommended to cover units + or bring them inside when not in use or during extended periods of + bad weather. + + TeleLCO uses an internal single-cell 2Ah Lithium Polymer battery, + which is sufficient for multiple days of typical operation. This + battery is charged over USB. + + TeleFire uses an internal sealed lead-acid 12V battery, which is + charged by an external charger attached through the PowerPole + connector on the rear panel. + + Pyro initiation uses the 12V sealed lead-acid battery. Current + to any pad can exceed 30A, and with typical igniters every pad on + a TeleFire can be successfully included in a drag race. The system + controls current flow to prevent damage, and has a self-resetting + circuit breaker for ultimate protection should something go badly + wrong. + + TeleLaunch uses AES encryption with a shared key between each unit + in the system to ensure the integrity of safe launch operations. + + The TeleLaunch system uses radio frequency communications in the + vicinity of 435 Mhz. A US amateur radio license or equivalent + authorization is required to legally use the system. The operating + frequency should be chosen to avoid conflict with other devices, or + put differently, nothing else should be operating on the same + frequency while TeleLaunch is in use. + |
