What is an Environmental Medical Unit?

Autism Society of America: Environmental Health Frequently A...
EMU is a specially designed and constructed residential or hospital facility providing a short-term stay for a child with ASD. During the stay, the child’s symptom triggers are identified so that they be avoided and eventually tolerated again. Although they do not yet exist in the U.S., EMUs would allow researchers to see and identify the role of exposures in ASDs and other illnesses (see Environmental Exposures and ASDs: Making the Connection by Claudia S. Miller, M.D., M.S.).

What is an Environmental Control System?

CHIP - Communicaid for Hearing Impaired Persons
These systems monitor the environment in your home. If the doorbell or telephone rings, the system will alert you by flashing lights or portable receivers that vibrate. The interference is caused by the cell phone antenna that conflicts with the hearing aid, especially a digital hearing aid. The further away the antenna from the hearing aid, the less interference. A hands free device can be used to alleviate this problem.

Can an environmental control computer change crop quality?

Griffin Greenhouse & Nursery Supplies: Technical Support
Because they monitor and control temperature, humidity, and light intensity constantly, environmental control computers create the most uniform conditions possible. This leads to increased uniformity in the crop. "DIF" programs are easy to implement with computers, and have been proven to be effective in producing compact, well-branched plants that sell more readily or for higher prices.

One or more remotes has a flashing red LED and won't control the RPM unit. What's wrong?

Technical Support
Make sure that every remote is set to its own address, and check to be sure the A and B data lines are not reversed. Equally important to correct wiring is using pairs of twisted conductors (i.e. A = blue w/ white, B = blue, V+ = green w/ white, V- = green etc.). Don't mix wires from different pairs. Also do not "double up" extra pairs on the A and B data lines, as the extra capacitance can affect communication. The RPM xx polls (searches) for Smart Remotes when it is first turned on.

Is the Control Unit isolated from the magnetos?

Vertical Power
Yes. The mag switch on the VP-200 Switch Panel has three independent poles (or circuits): one for the left mag p-lead, one for the right mag p-lead, and one to tell the microprocessor the switch position. The p-lead wires go directly from the rotary switch to the mags and are purely a mechanical connection. There is even a separate connector for the mag p-leads and associated ground wire. Think of the Control Unit as box with a few dozen individual circuits.

Is the control unit water resistant?

Perfect Switch, LLC.
The MOBI-ARC Control Unit is water resistant, but not sealed. We Krylon coat the printed circuit board (PCB) in a clear plastic coating to insure that, if water gets inside the control unit, it will not short across the PCB. For a nominal fee, dielectric gel can be applied for additional protection. Many people ask why we don't epoxy the board? The PCB is a substantial percentage of unit's cost. Once epoxy is applied, individual parts on the board cannot be accessed.
