EI-2 transmitter

These transmitters are designed to be mounted in the ear of large mammals such as bears, deer, bison or hippopotamus.

Frequency Range: 138 to 235 MHz.

Transmitter: Crystal controlled two-stage design, pulsed by a CMOS multivibrator.

Pulse Width & Rate: 25 to 30 ms, nominal 0.7 p/s (42 p/m).

Specifications: (* = model shown above)
Model Weight Nominal Life Lifespan range Dimensions: LxWxH (mm)
EI-2* 30g 12 months 6-18 months 44 x 44 x 18
EI-2A 50g 18 months 18-30 months 61 x 47 x 27
Power Output: Set to use available battery power over the required transmitter life.

Housing: The battery and transmitter are encapsulated in an inert waterproof epoxy.

Attachment: The transmitter is placed in the cup of the ear. The ¼" x 20 threaded nylon stud is passed through a hole in the ear and secured with a fabric washer and nylon nut.

Antenna: A loop within the epoxy encapsulation.

Activation: Removing an external magnet starts the transmitter. Replacing it stops the transmitter.


OPTIONS
Mortality (suffix "M"): EI-2A only. The available delays are 4 or 12 hours. The 4 hour delay circuit indicates its activation by a double pulse. The 12 hour delay circuit indicates its activation by increasing the pulse rate from a nominal ~42 p/m to ~75 p/m. After the mortality mode has been triggered, any motion resets the transmitter to the normal pulse rate. This option adds ~0.5g to the finished weight of each transmitter.
