Overview

The RF500M is a versatile radio modem for networks with UHF/VHF radios, typically serving as an interface between the data logger and radio. In addition to serving as a field modem connected to a data logger, the RF500M can also be used as a stand-alone repeater, or as a base-station modem connected to a computer. The RF500M is generally used with legacy or existing PakBus and mixed-array/dial-up networks. The RF500M works with our RF320-series radios, RF310-series radios, RF300-series radios, or any radio and modem combination that outputs a demodulated byte stream via RS-232.

For new installations, please consider one of ourspread-spectrum radio solutions, or contact Campbell Scientific to discuss the use of other licensed radio options.

The RF500M is an appropriate choice for any ALERT(1) store-and-forward repeaters or base-station-decoder applications. For ALERT2 applications, refer to theAlert200 Alert2基本远程数据平台.

福利和特色

  • 支持s multiple radio configurations
  • 使用软件（devconfig）而不是硬件修改来升级操作系统（OS）并更改RF ID或其他设置
  • Provides an RS-232 port (DTE) for modem configuration or attachment of an RS-232 radio
  • Avoids all collisions within a network, thus increasing polling speeds and reducing overall current drain

Images

我们的RF网络需要视线传输。该绘图中的山区与基站妨碍了视线。使用中继站允许基站接收来自现场站的数据。
RF500M用作独立的中继器，以在无法由于距离或障碍物直接通信的站之间提供通信继电器。
在现场站，RF500M调制解调器用作数据记录器和无线电之间的通信接口。

详细说明

RF500M通常用于远程，中继器和基站通信接口，通常用于我们的许可无线电应用程序。它在数据记录器或计算机和无线电之间提供了一个接口，并且在不需要现场记录时，可以是独立的中继器。RF500M从CS I / O端口或外部电源连接供电。该调制解调器是可配置的软件，并设计为与数据遥测无线电接口，如我们的RF320-，RF310-和RF300系列VHF / UHF无线电。

Operating System (OS) Options Descriptions

PakBus OS

考虑了RF500M的标准，-PB OS使用TDRF轮询来快速和有效地通过网络移动数据。每个站都可以通过LogGernet单独拨打。此操作系统与-TD，-PB和我们当前的Pakbus数据记录器的生成兼容。

ALERT Dual Mode OS

The ALERT (Automated Local Evaluation in Real Time) OS allows for transmission, repeating, and reception of binary ALERT formatted data. It is a derivative of the -PB OS, and therefore supports both ALERT and TDRF communications (allowing true two-way communication with a station). This OS is compatible with the CR200(X)-series, CR800-series, CR1000, and CR3000 dataloggers.

Dial OS

拨号操作系统适用于混合阵列and PakBus/table-based data loggers. Each station can be dialed by LoggerNet for downloading data, sending programs, and performing other tasks. Additionally, this OS allows stations to create point-to-point networks for sharing of measurement and control tasks.

Radios

Three jumper settings allow the RF500M to be used with a variety of radios. Though not a requirement, it is a good idea to standardize your network to use a single radio type. This practice simplifies operations and maintenance and provides the highest degree of interstation compatibility possible.

Number of FAQs related toRF500M:7

Expand AllCollapse All

  1. What is the warranty period for an RF500M?
    The RF500M Radio Modem is warranted by Campbell Scientific, Inc., to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for twelve (12) months from date of shipment unless specified otherwise.
  2. 在一个RF500M上，当它首先通电时，它是正常的灯，然后灯熄灭吗？
    是的。当RF500M电源（或重置内部处理器时）时，调制解调器上的每个LED指示灯都会亮起，循环一系列颜色，然后关闭。这表明RF500M正在运行自检（POST）的电源。如果LED保持照明，则这表明帖子失败了。
  3. Can an RF500M work with a GPS device for vehicle tracking systems?

    不可以.RF500M不能直接与GPS接收器接口。然而，大多数坎贝尔科学数据记录器可以与GPS接收器的输出接口，并编程以提取位置信息。然后可以通过RF500M / RF320 RF链路访问此信息。

  4. 如果RF调制解调器不再工作，可以修复吗？

    Usually, yes. Contact Campbell Scientific for a return material authorization number (RMA) and instructions for returning the unit for repair. Additional information is available on theRepair and Calibration页。

  5. 是否可以使用CR1000KD使用RF调制解调器和无线电连接到远程RF站？

    不可以.CR1000KD专门用于CR800，CR1000和CR6 DataLoggers的CS I / O端口。

  6. Is there a 2-D or 3-D CAD drawing of the RF500M?

    通常，工程图形不是公众可以访问。有关特定问题，请联系Campbell Scientific获得帮助。

  7. Can a CR10X and an RF modem be wired directly without using an SC932A?

    如果RF调制解调器具有CS I / O连接器，则应与CR10x兼容而不使用SC932a。确保RF调制解调器的固件与CR10x固件兼容。

    Note:RF modems that are not sold by Campbell Scientific will only interface with a CR10X via an SC932A or an SC105.
