5. Wireless System Introduction

In the wireless system, use mesh gateway (HDL-MCIP-RF.10) to manage all the wireless

devices, the gateway can work in mesh mode and bridge mode.

5.1

Mesh Mode

5.1.1

Wiring Diagram

The mesh mode can realize the communication between the HDL Buspro devices and the

RF devices.

In mesh mode, must set different frequency (RF Channel) for each gateway, each

gateway manages a wireless network with same Subnet ID of the RF devices.
