odel 195C
Transparent RS-485 Wireless Link
465.500 MHz at 2 Watts Output
Main Office Address – 172.16.10.182
Remote Site Addresses – 172.16.10.183-172.16.10.186
The following are the software commands that need to be adjusted for point to
multipoint operation. The only difference from a point to point application is that a
special global Setconnect Address (Address = 255) is required. Changing the
setconnect address to 255 will all remote locations receive the data simultaneously and
pass through the configured serial data interface.
Technical Tip: The unit address of the ESTeem
195C or 195M is the last octet of the IP address.
This single address is used when configuring the
destination and routing. Example – Main
Address IP = 172.16.10.182. Unit address = 182.
Technical Tip: To send to
multiple remote locations at
once use a global
Setconnect address of 255.

Once all the above software commands are adjusted to their correct parameters, press the Write Config button to send the
changes to the 195C or 195M. The modem will reset and be ready for operation on the selected serial port. Complete the
above steps for both radio modems in the network and proceed to installation and testing.
