Product Overview
The 12-38-0000 transceiver is capable of accurate control and telemetry over long distances.
Designed to be used in industrial environments it can withstand temperature extremes as well as
being resilient to electrical noise often found in industrial plants.
The transceiver, along with its integrated input/output interface is designed for the control and
telemetry of industrial machines with high accuracy and speed.
The 12-38-0000 has an on-board SD card which is used to store the configuration of a unit, this
allows for ease of copying a configuration between units e.g. to replicate a system, the capturing
of log files and storage of audio wave files. The unit can be set up to respond to an event, such
as an input, by selecting a radio channel and broadcasting the audio wave file. Anyone carrying
a radio transceiver, set to that channel, can then receive the message.
The 12-38-0000 could also be configured as a store and forward radio repeater to extend the
radio range of any installation. This will allow monitoring and control of sites in difficult locations
without clear radio access.
The 12-38-0000 is a 5-watt analogue transceiver with POCSAG capability for both transmitting
and receiving and comes in two variants, a VHF (136-174 MHz) or UHF (440-470 MHz). All
parameters are programmable such as frequency, power output, deviation, POCSAG data
transmission.
The USB port, or the RS232 serial port can be used to initiate paging transmissions using the
SALCOM propriety protocol, Paging Entry Protocol (PET) or Telocator Alphanumeric Protocol
(TAP) PG1 protocol
