The wireless receiver with data port for display or printer module generates a serial output ASCII string which can include data from up to 8 x radio telemetry T24 transmitters as well as optionally sum them. The output is suitable for connecting to many serial input devices that require simple ASCII data.
The actual ASCII output can be designed by the user which can include free text or tokens which can represent real data. i.e. <V1> would be the value from input module 1 when the output is triggered.
The output of the T24-SO can be triggered by the reception of user specified data. i.e. data is only outputted when data is received from a specific acquisition module or when triggered from a handheld device.
The license free 2.4 GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology offers high integrity, error free communications which can co-exist with other wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth® and Zigbee®. FCC, ETSI and IC approvals.
The wireless receiver with data port for display or printer module is configured using free T24 Toolkit software which runs on a PC connected to a T24 base station.
Internal antenna offers up to 800 m (2,600 ft) range in an open field site.
*Maximum range achieved in open field site at height of 3 meters (9.8 feet) above ground.
A: The serial output provides an ASCII string output of up to 8 values in a user formatted string.
A: By combining the T24-SO with a serial display such as Mantracourt’s SerialDis unit a display can be created that updates as often the transmitter module transmits data.
A: The T24-SO gathers data from up to 8 transmitter modules and, on its serial output, provides a user configurable ASCII string. The output string can contain the summed value of the gathered data. This output can be used to drive serial displays, printers or to simply feed directly into a PC, PLC or other data transmitter systems.
The base stations communicate bi-directionally so are used to configure the devices as well as gather data. The communications protocol is binary and packet based and so requires processing to present the data to the application in a formatted manner.
