3 The TeleLaunch system can handle up to 99 banks with each bank
4 having up to 8 pads, for a total of 792 pads.
6 Each unit in the TeleLaunch system is water-resistant, but is not
7 intended to be directly immersed in water. Brief rain showers during
8 a launch should pose no problem, but it's recommended to cover units
9 or bring them inside when not in use or during extended periods of
12 TeleLCO uses an internal single-cell 2Ah Lithium Polymer battery,
13 which is sufficient for multiple days of typical operation. This
14 battery is charged over USB.
16 TeleFire uses an internal sealed lead-acid 12V battery, which is
17 charged by an external charger attached through the PowerPole
18 connector on the rear panel.
20 Pyro initiation uses the 12V sealed lead-acid battery. Current
21 to any pad can exceed 30A, and with typical igniters every pad on
22 a TeleFire can be successfully included in a drag race. The system
23 controls current flow to prevent damage, and has a self-resetting
24 circuit breaker for ultimate protection should something go badly
27 TeleLaunch uses AES encryption with a shared key between each unit
28 in the system to ensure the integrity of safe launch operations.
30 The TeleLaunch system uses radio frequency communications in the
31 vicinity of 435 Mhz. A US amateur radio license or equivalent
32 authorization is required to legally use the system. The operating
33 frequency should be chosen to avoid conflict with other devices, or
34 put differently, nothing else should be operating on the same
35 frequency while TeleLaunch is in use.
