Diablo Controls AVI-100-R-117 (117 AC Power, Single or Dual Code Receiver)
The Diablo Controls AVI-100-R-117 is a 117 VAC Automatic Vehicle Identification receiver for coded vehicle access installations. It is part of a Diablo AVI system that uses vehicle-mounted transmitters and roadway loop pickup to identify authorized vehicles before sending an access command.
AVI access is different from a standard loop or radio remote system. The receiver validates a programmed code from a compatible AVI transmitter, which is useful for emergency response gates, transit routes, trucking entrances, manufacturing facilities, airport service roads, rail yards, and other controlled vehicle lanes.
This row is specific to the 117 VAC receiver version. The power source, wiring, code programming, transmitter type, loop pickup arrangement, and whether a separate detector is required must be confirmed before ordering.
Compatible With
Compatibility depends on the detector model, supply voltage, loop or probe type, wiring base, relay output needs, and how the gate, door, barrier, parking, or access-control panel is designed to receive a vehicle-detect signal.
- Diablo AVI systems using compatible vehicle-mounted AVI transmitters
- AVI-X-1 single-code and AVI-X-2 dual-code transmitter applications when programmed correctly
- 117 VAC AVI receiver installations
- Gate operators, barrier gates, and access-control systems requiring coded vehicle access
- Emergency, transit, shuttle, trucking, industrial, airport, rail, and restricted facility access applications
- AVI-100-R-117 replacements where voltage, codes, and wiring match
- Not interchangeable with AVI-100-R-LV low-voltage receiver or AVI-100-RD receiver-with-detector without system review

Technician Note
For 117 VAC AVI receivers, confirm line voltage and cabinet wiring before replacement. Document existing code settings and transmitter list so the access system can be restored properly.
Before Ordering
- Confirm the existing receiver is powered by 117 VAC.
- Verify code programming and transmitter compatibility.
- Determine whether the site also needs a separate loop detector.
- Check relay output wiring to the gate or access-control panel.
- Confirm safety devices remain separate and functional.
Important Ordering Warning
117 VAC wiring should be handled with power disconnected by a qualified technician. Do not substitute the low-voltage receiver unless the power and wiring are changed correctly.
Professional Advisory
Vehicle detector wiring is part of the gate, door, parking, or access-control safety and command circuit. Do not bypass monitored safety devices or use a detector to defeat required entrapment protection. For high-voltage wiring, cabinet faults, nuisance detection, or unsafe gate movement, use a qualified gate or access-control technician.
Product Questions and Answers
What does the AVI-100-R-117 receiver do?
It receives coded signals from compatible Diablo AVI transmitters and sends an access signal when the code is valid.
What does 117 mean in the part number?
It identifies the 117 VAC power version of the receiver.
No. AVI-100-R-LV is the low-voltage version.
Is this the same as AVI-100-RD?
No. AVI-100-RD is commonly described as the receiver-with-detector version, while this row is the 117 VAC receiver version.
What should be checked before ordering?
Check voltage, transmitter codes, loop pickup design, relay output wiring, and whether a separate detector is required.
