  • Publication number: 20010045883
    Abstract: A wireless digital launch or firing system has a transmitter unit that can transmit separate RF signals representing an “enable” code sequence and an “actuate” code sequence, and a receiver unit which decodes the “enable” code sequence to enable receipt of the “actuate” code sequence, and decodes the “actuate” code sequence to actuate launching or firing. A digital processor receives the code sequences from a receiver circuit and compares them to stored digital code sequences. A memory latch maintains a normally-off primary switch in an “on” condition when the “enable” signal is received. A normally-off secondary switch is set to an “on” condition when the “actuate” signal is received.
