Function:
The MTS-RF9 is a license-free radio communications module that forms the backbone of an MTS telemetry system. These modules can be configured as ‘Host’ or ‘Remote’ by a single DIP switch. Systems can be setup in a ‘Point-to-Point’ or ‘Point-to-Multi-Point’ topology. Multiple frequency hop tables allow several MTS radio systems to operate in close proximity.
Typical indoor range is 1500+ ft. Outdoor range can be extended to 12+ Miles with directional antennas. A signal strength indicator shows the amount of RF signal received. Pribusin offers a complete line of antennas and accessories for all types of installations.
The MTS-RF9 can also be used as a stand-alone Wireless RS-232/RS-485 link between PLCs etc.
Deployment and installation is as simple as plugging the needed I/O modules into the communications module and assigning unique module ID’s. The MTS-RF9 automatically discovers the I/O modules that are attached to it and does all necessary configuration. Power and communication for the modules are provided through an integral bus.
The wireless communication is via license-free (in USA and CANADA) 900MHz Spread Spectrum Radio using channel hopping technology for greater reliability. Line-of-Sight distances of up to 12 miles can be achieved with these radios in conjunction with high gain antennas.
