R70SR Serial Data Radios are compact, industrial, low-power wireless communications devices
used to extend the range of serial communications networks. The Serial Data Radios are available in two
frequencies, 900 MHz and 2.4GHz, and are fitted with M12 quick disconnect connectors for fast deployment.
• RS-485 serial communication
• Star or tree network topology configuration
• DIP switches select operational modes
• Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology ensures reliable data delivery
• Self-healing, auto-routing radio frequency network with multiple hops to extend the network's range

Quick Start Guide
Setting Up Your Serial Data Radio Network
To set up and install your wireless Serial Data Radio network, follow these steps:
1. Before installing your serial data radios, first verify that your serial devices work. Connect your serial devices using a serial cable. Note the
baud rate and parity of your serial devices so that you can use the DIP switches to configure the serial data radios to use these parameters.
Set your serial devices to 8 data bits and 1 stop bit.
2. Configure the DIP switches of all devices.
3. Apply power to all devices.
4. Form the wireless network by binding the repeater and slave radios to the master radio.
5. Observe the LED behavior to verify the devices are communicating with each other.
6. Install your wireless sensor network components. For more details about installing your radios, refer to the
(p/n
151514) downloadable from the Wireless Reference Library at

Configure the DIP Switches
Before changing DIP switch positions, disconnect the power. Any changes made to the DIP switches are not recognized until after power is cycled
to the device.
For devices powered by batteries integrated into the housing, triple-click button 2, then double-click button 2 to reset the device without removing
the battery.
