The T24-GW1 is a wireless Modbus gateway that provides a simple interface for users to gather data from up to 100 transmitters in a T24 network. The T24-GW1 uses either the standard Modbus interface RTU* protocol or a simple ASCII protocol.
The wireless telemetry Modbus gateway offers some simple commands available to wake, sleep, and keep awake T24 transmitters.
The license free 2.4 GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio telemetry technology offers high integrity, error free communications which can co-exist with other wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth® and Zigbee®. ETSI, FCC and IC approvals.
*Modbus is a serial communications protocol which was originally designed for use with PLCs (Programmable logic controllers). Over time its simple and robust nature has made it a communication protocol standard. It is now amongst the most common available means for connecting industrial electronic devices.
*Maximum range achieved in open field site at height of 3 meters (9.8 feet) above ground.
A: The USB port on the T24-GW1 is not active for communications (the device only uses RS232 and RS485) but it can be used for power.
