CR200 Overview
RfpinEn: Radio standby receive current 0 mA.
: For use as a wireless sensor
with a TD datalogger select
RfpinEn
for the Power Mode. This has the lowest
power requirement of all settings. The radio is controlled by the CR200
program. As a wireless sensor all transmissions are initiated by the CR200. The
radio is only powered for the transmission and a short time after while awaiting
the response from the master datalogger.
In wireless sensor applications, the RF400 on the master
datalogger should be set to always on.
NOTE
RF1_Sec: Radio standby receive current < 2 mA.
The radio powers up once
a second to listen for transmissions. The maximum response delay is 2 seconds.
RF8_Sec: Radio standby receive current < 0.4 mA.
The radio powers up
every 8 seconds to listen for transmissions. The maximum response delay is 16
seconds.
RF1S_LH: Radio standby receive current < 2 mA.
The radio powers up
once a second to listen for transmissions. When it initiates communication it
sends long header (>1 second) on messages. This is used only if the datalogger
will be initiating communications with SendGetData and other radios in the
system are using the 1 second standby mode. The long header insures other
radios in the network hear the message.
RF8S_LH: Radio standby receive current < 0.4 mA.
The radio powers up
every 8 seconds to listen for transmissions. When it initiates communication it
sends long header (>8 seconds) on messages. This is used only if the
datalogger will be initiating communications with SendGetData and other
radios in the system are using the 8 second standby mode. The long header
insures other radios in the network hear the message.
After selecting the desired hop, address, and power mode settings, press “Save
Settings” to store the values to the radio.
OV3.3.4 RF Protocol
Identifies the radio protocol that will be used for the CR2xx.
In order to be
compatible with other CR2xx and RF400 type devices, the default value of
transparent must be used.
The following values are supported:
1.
Transparent – This mode is compatible with older CR205, CR210, CR215,
RF400, RF410, and RF415 operating systems.
2.
PakBus – This mode can be used in networks involving
RF401/RF411/RF416 hardware or other, newer CR206/CR211/CR216
devices and makes use of the retry capability inherent in the MaxStream
radios.
This mode is not compatible with the older radios.
