Cut the Cord with the V-Plow MACRO Remote Control System

Snow and ice are hard enough on equipment without an unreliable wired controller slowing down the job. Kar-Tech’s V-Plow MACRO Remote Control System offers a durable wireless replacement designed for select Fisher, Western, and SnowEx plows.

The system pairs Kar-Tech’s rugged MACRO handheld transmitter with a fully encapsulated radio receiver. The receiver mounts easily and connects directly to the plow’s hydraulic coils and pump, eliminating the need for the original wired handheld controller and plow module.

The compact nine-button transmitter uses tactile pushbuttons that are easy to operate while wearing gloves. Its internal lithium-polymer battery provides up to 40 hours of operation between charges, while the magnetic charging connection makes recharging quick and convenient.

Communication is provided through a secure 900 MHz FHSS radio link with a nominal range of up to 300 feet. The receiver operates from a 9-30VDC power supply and provides eight protected solid-state outputs rated for up to 5 amps each.

Built for demanding outdoor conditions, the urethane-potted receiver protects its electronics from moisture, vibration, and the harsh environment that comes with winter plowing. The result is a straightforward, off-the-shelf upgrade that gives operators greater freedom inside or outside the cab.

For crews ready to replace aging wired controls, the V-Plow MACRO Remote Control System provides a practical path to dependable wireless operation.
