Abstract

Abstract A code-responsive control receiver for response to preselectable code combinations, which operates on the pulse interval principle and has a synchronous selector and switching device for connecting a command relay to the pulse receiving circuit. The receiver is provided with a receiver relay responsive to the arriving preselector pulses and control pulses. A transistor flip flop circuit is connected to a direct voltage supply. The transistors of the flip flop cooperate with the switching members and through further flip flop circuitry upon two differential coils of the command relay so that the system operates to selectively activate particular loads or load groups in accordance with the preselected code pulse combination.
