WI.232DTS-R
TM
FCC prescanned Wireless Module
915 MHz, 152.34 kbit/sec.
DESCRIPTION
The Wi.232DTS-R
TM
module combines a state-of-the art low power wireless
transceiver with a powerful multipoint-to-multipoint protocol controller to form a
transparent wireless communication solution capable of replacing wires in
almost any RS-232/422/485 application. With a 111 dB link budget and very
low power operation modes, the Wi.232DTS-R
TM
module is excellent for AMR,
RFID, Home Automation, and any other application requiring long range
(<1500ft. , line of sight) and long battery life.
The module is designed to be totally transparent. No special addressing or
formatting of data is required. Data is validated using an internally generated
CRC-16 and encoded using a proprietary algorithm. Multiple modules can
operate on the same channel because of the built-in carrier-sense-multiple-
access (CSMA) protocol.
The transceiver operates in two modes; low power and DTS. In low-power
mode, transmitter output power is 0 dBm and the maximum RF data is 76.8
kbit/sec. In DTS mode, the output power is
+
12 dBm and the maximum RF
data rate is 152.34 kbit/sec.

In DTS mode, the Wi.232DTS-R module is an excellent alternative to expen-
sive and power-hungry frequency hopping modules. With 115 dBm link margin
at the highest data rate, the Wi.232DTS-R
TM
will work farther and faster than
any module in its class. Because DTS does not require frequency hopping,
synchronization is very fast, allowing long duty cycles and very good battery
power performance.
