The TPR-120 is designed to deliver all the benefits of UPB to 120/208V 3-phase environments, such as restaurants, apartment complexes, office buildings or across multiple electrical phases.
Operation
The TPR-120 Three-Phase Repeater is a small electronic device that enables communication between PulseWorx and other devices using the Universal Power Line Bus (UPB) method of communication on three-phase 120/208VAC Delta-Wye 60Hz power.
The Three-Phase Repeater will now bridge the communication gap between phases within multi-dwelling units, apartments, condominiums and light commercial office and restaurant facilities. Initially UPB communication was designed to work on a single phase power line; the signals will not directly jump across all three phases of a 120/208V electrical system. The TPR now transfers any UPB multi-packet generated on a single phase and positions and repeats them properly onto all three phases of the power line.
The TPR is simple to install and configure, just connect it to a standard 3 phase circuit breaker. The TPR is easily added to any UPB Network using UPStart Setup Software, which enables customization of the TPR's performance and the ability to run communication tests from the TPR to all devices in the network.
Easy to Configure
Like all PulseWorx devices, the TPR-120 can be initially configured using PCS's free UPStart Software setup tool, although it can easily be installed as a stand-alone unit. UPStart can be used to add the TPR-120 to the UPB network, perform communication tests, adjust receive sensitivity, as well as print communication tests.
PulseWorx Lighting Control System
The Three-Phase repeater is designed to be an integral part of a complete PulseWorx Lighting Control System. Like all PulseWorx devices, the TPR-120uses the patented UPB power line communication technology (invented by PCS) to reliably communicate with any other UPB-compatible device(s) over the existing house electrical wires. . No new wires are necessary making PulseWorx perfect for retrofit situations. When initial configuration is complete, a single push of a button is all you need to activate any group of lights (or virtually anything else that connects to AC power wiring) throughout the house simultaneously.
