When paired with the PRO Control 2 handheld, the new system provides reliable and consistent control of launchers, releasers, and other accessory devices (accessory devices sold separately).</p> <p>Trainers can configure up to 18 PRO Control 2 remote receivers to one handheld, and two devices can be connected to each remote receiver. The remote receiver can be activated separately, simultaneously (to simulate a flock of birds), or in a rapid sequence. The PRO Control 2 remote receiver can be triggered wirelessly over half a mile away.</p> <p>Sounds on the PRO Control 2 remote receiver are vastly improved as well â both in terms of volume and sound quality. The unit features a realistic mallard hail call, an attention-getting âhey, hey, heyâ voice, and a tone. For an even louder volume, the remote receiver can be connected to a powered speaker (sold separately) via the 3.5mm audio jack.</p> <p>For even more versatility, users can custom-load their own sound files onto the PRO Control 2 remote receiver, via <a href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoftware.garmin.com%2Fen-US%2Fexpress.html&esheet=51260812&newsitemid=20160118005180&lan=en-US&anchor=Garmin+Express&index=1&md5=e54458b3a3079ea2f24f9667207109f7" rel="nofollow">Garmin Express</a>. Loaded with other wildlife sounds, the PRO Control 2 system can pull double duty as a compact, long-range electronic predator or goose call.<sup> </sup>This capability will be available beginning in the second quarter of 2016.</p> <p>The PRO Control 2 remote receiver is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that provides up to 200 launches between charges. The unit is water rated IPX7 (withstands incidental exposure of water up to a depth of one meter of water for 30 minutes). The PRO Control 2 system is backwards compatible with legacy Tri-Tronics Pro Control components as well.</p> <p>The PRO Control 2 remote receiver has a minimum retail price (MRP) of $179.99, or can be purchased as a bundle with the PRO Control 2 handheld for an MRP of $299.99.</p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/GarminOnTheTrail?a=4vBw4V3RzM0:HKUL3QTJPow:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/GarminOnTheTrail?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/GarminOnTheTrail?a=4vBw4V3RzM0:HKUL3QTJPow:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/GarminOnTheTrail?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div> View the full article Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
