Need a simple telemeter circuit

Need a simple telemeter circuit

(OP)
I need to use it to transmit data (0 OR 1) to 5-6 meters away. Could anyone please help! Thanks in advance!

RE: Need a simple telemeter circuit

  Please tell us why 5 or 6 meters of wire won't work.

(OP)
It's a sensing system for patients that would lit an LED when there is 1. At present it's built as a compact system as an experiment. I would like to separate the indicator part from the main circuit so that the indicator can be placed somewhere else, for example nurse stations. I've asked for 5-6 meters just to test the system. I won't mind if it covers more distance.

RE: Need a simple telemeter circuit

If you go wireless, you better make sure that you don't interfere with any other machines!  It sounds like this is a medical device, and I think that they are extremely sensitive about RF emissions.

RE: Need a simple telemeter circuit

(OP)
Yes, that's my main concern.

RE: Need a simple telemeter circuit

Apart from RF and infrared, you may use a high frequency audio tone, for example 30 kHz.
This tone will neither interfere nor be heard.
