DESCRIPTION
The VigilArc Deck device combines the functions of an autonomous power supply for the direction-finding stations VigilArc Array and a switching hub for interfacing the station with the user’s PC, as well as for connecting sources of heading and position data for the direction-finding station. It contains protection circuits against reverse polarity and overvoltage for the connected devices.
The unit is housed in a small impact-resistant plastic case. It has a front panel made of high-quality stainless steel. The modern lithium iron phosphate batteries used in the unit provide operation at sub-zero temperatures and more than a thousand charge-discharge cycles. If necessary, the unit can be operated from an external 12 V DC source while the built-in battery is charged from the standard charger.
