PHOENIX, Sept. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- OMCO Solar®, America's premier factory-direct manufacturer of solar trackers and fixed-tilt solutions, announces the launch of the OMCO Star™ Tracker Control System, available now nationwide.

Engineered to work seamlessly with OMCO Origin® Factory-Direct Trackers, the OMCO Star Tracker Control System uses LoRa (long range) wireless technology – wireless communication range greater than 1 mile – resulting in far fewer network controllers required.

We are proud of the results — a solution that redefines how single-axis trackers perform in the field," says Lepolve Varpilah, Director of Electrical and Software Engineering.

Key OMCO Star Advantages:

• Field-replaceable battery for quick, cost-effective maintenance in the field – less than 3 minutes.
• Direct communication with many devices and fewer gateways required.
• Advanced weather features to withstand wind, hail, snow, overcast conditions, and flooding.
