A Brief Product History
In 1994 Control Design began by specializing in the design and manufacture
of long-distance (1 to 120+ air miles), UHF 450-470Mhz and VHF 150-172Mhz wireless radio-
modem technology for automation and control equipment.
By 1998 our wireless radio-modem technology was extended with non-programmable controller
capabilities to meet the need for extended on-site functions on the radio-modem unit.
During 2003, we extended the non-programmable unit features to include Basic52 programmability with Modbus,
a Display/Keypad and many new features needed to make a complete on-site solution package.
In 2007 we developed a complete new line of "Latest Technology" RTUs with many new features such as Non-Volatile Memory
that does NOT require batteries and does NOT wear out.
The Radio-Modem capabilities were also improved to operate beyond the -113dbm threshold for better operation
than our previous modems.
Since 1998, hundreds of our unique, remotely accessible, non-programmable and programmable, wireless controllers have
been installed and are operating in many public agency and private industry customer locations throughout the West.
A few of Our Customers
include Irrigation Districts such as Elephant Butte and Middle Rio Grande in New Mexico, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation,
Irrigation Districts in North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, California and Arizona.
Our Products
are designed for noisy and high traffic radio spectrum environments. The synchronous radio-modem
technlogy has made wide area, long-range distributed control systems, such as Irrigation and Oil/Gas,
not only possible but practical and affordable.
All of the products have industrial grade Analog and Digital I/O Ports, Integrated Radio-Modem, Modbus Protocol,
Solar/DC Charge Controller, Basic52 Programmability, Multiple Com Ports and IO/Sensor Power sources.
Additional options such as Displays, Keypads, Relay and Gate controls, Pneumatic (Bubbler) Sensors and Custom Enclosures
are available
Designed in the field, for the people that use them, with the greatest functionality and reliability, this product line
has the features and performance to meet the requirements for remote Automation and SCADA.
We've been building and improving our products for more than Twelve years now and We take great pride in
delivering and supporting a first rate product!!!
