PRIMEX WIRELESS INTRODUCES THE WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL WIRELESS
SYNCHRONIZED SOLUTION FOR FACILITY ENVIRONMENTS

CommandPoint™ 72XR Series Offers Maintenance- and Interference-Free  Integration with Clocks, Bells and Other Timing Devices

LAKE GENEVA, WI – September 8, 2005 – Primex Wireless, Inc., the world leader in wireless synchronized communication and control systems, has introduced a high power transmitter solution that is revolutionizing the way time-controlled devices are managed throughout facilities, such as schools, hospitals, manufacturing sites and more.

The CommandPoint™ 72XR High Power Transmitter Series uses the accuracy of Global Positioning System (GPS) technology and a 72MHz frequency to keep all the clocks, bells and other timekeeping mechanisms across facilities perfectly in sync. The new series enables facilities managers to maximize building operations by significantly reducing the maintenance time and costs associated with installing, repairing and integrating conventional wired and atomic timing systems.

“Facilities managers are already faced with so many tasks and decisions each day – the last thing they need to worry about is repairing inaccurate clocks or replacing outdated timekeeping systems,” explained Kristi Knack, product manager for Primex Wireless. “The CommandPoint Series provides a completely customizable transmitter solution, regardless of whether the facility spans over many miles or is contained in a single building. The end result is less equipment and less maintenance time and dollars, which are critical to facilities managers in any market.”

CommandPoint Series Introduction

The CommandPoint Series is available in varying power configurations, which are customized based on the specific needs of each individual facility. In many instances, this can be achieved with a single transmitter. The Primex Wireless receiver captures a time signal from the GPS satellites and sends it to a CommandPoint high power antenna, which automatically synchronizes to the exact second with all the clocks, bells and computer timing devices throughout the facility. Conventional atomic and hardwired systems are not as flexible or accurate as the new CommandPoint Series.

The CommandPoint Series is FCC-approved so it runs on a licensed, protected 72MHz frequency, which eliminates concerns about interference with other technology equipment now and into the future. Each system includes a GPS signal receiver, a transmitter and a high-powered antenna. The antenna is mounted by the Primex Wireless Certified Installation Team to eliminate installation time and ensure optimal coverage and signal penetration.

The new series is compatible with all Primex Wireless clocks, receivers, tone generators and other accessory products for flawless integration. And because all Primex Wireless clocks offer a five-year battery life, clock maintenance due to Daylight Saving Time changes and power outages is significantly reduced.

Availability and Warranty
The CommandPoint Series systems are available for order now. Each system comes standard with a one-year parts and labor warranty and an optional extended four-year warranty at the time of purchase.
