RF Data Rate
Setting Description
Options
l (4) - With an occupied bandwidth of 12.5 kHz and modulation level of 4-level
GFSK.
l With an RF Data Rate of 4, the maximum over-the-air operating speed is
19,200 bps.
Important!: RF Data Rate 4 is not compatible with firmware versions 1.69
and older.
l (5) - With an occupied bandwidth of 12.5 kHz and a modulation level of 2-level
GFSK.
l With an RF Data Rate of 5, the maximum over-the-air operating speed is
9600 bps.

(3) Edit Transmission Characteristics > (4)RF Data Rate
Description
Important!: Do NOT confuse the RF Data Rate with the serial port Baud
Rate.
The RF Data Rate is the over-the-air data rate between radios in the
network.
The LRS455A-C, LRS455A-CE, LRS455-T radios have two settings
for the RF Data Rate (4, 5).
l Use setting 4 when the radios are close together and data throughput needs to
be optimized.
l Use setting 5 when the radios are farther away and a solid data link is preferred
over data throughput.
and 5
Note: Although additional RF Data Rates are available, only rates
4 are FCC approved for LRS455A-C, LRS455A-CE, LRS455-T.
4.4.9. RTS to CTS
Note: This parameter does not apply to the LRS455A-C, LRS455A-CE, LRS455-T radios.
4.4.10. Rx Frequency
Important!: In the Master, this setting must be the same as the Tx Frequency (on page 50) in the
Slaves.
