Wireless Handheld Display Standard BW-HK-S

*Avaliable from Q1 2025*

The BW-HK-S handheld display is a rugged, IP67-rated device designed for seamless use with Broadweigh wireless transmitters.

It allows users to view and monitor data in real-time from sensors transmitting load, and other measurement data wirelessly.

The BW-HK-S is our next-generation wireless handheld, designed to take the most popular features from the BW-HR and BW-HA and combines them in one product.

Straight out of the box, it operates in roaming mode, automatically detecting and displaying data from up to twelve nearby Broadweigh transmitters (up to 800 m range*).

For more tailored configurations, users can define up to twelve specific inputs, each with custom settings such as overload alerts and calibrated units to meet particular monitoring needs.

Setting up the BW-HK-S is simple with much of the configuration carried out using just the menu system on the handheld, including connecting transmitters to the same radio settings as the handheld. Full setup and saving/loading of the configuration can be carried out using the free BW Handheld Toolkit.

The default menu system allows access to all configuration. However, the user can lock or hide menu items and set PINs and passwords to stop users from changing settings by mistake.

Additionally, the interface is customisable through the toolkit software, giving users the flexibility to adapt the display for specific operational requirements.

With its intuitive setup and versatile configuration options, the BW-HK-S is an ideal solution for multi-sensor monitoring in demanding environments.

Firmware is updatable using the toolkit software. This will allow users to access new features as we release them in the future. This will include mathematical functions, enabling calculations such as sums and differences across the defined inputs. An additional function of this would allow calculation of loads based on certain sling angles

The licence free 2.4GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio telemetry technology offers high integrity, error free communications which can co-exist with other wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth® and Zigbee®. FCC, ETSI and IC approvals.

The BW-HK-S is backwards compatible with existing Broadweigh products.

The BW-HK-S uses a pair of standard alkaline AA batteries and can also be permanently powered for fixed installations.
