2 98-1138 Rev AD Gridstream SCADA/DA S4SBR
This Gridstream S4SBR is based upon existing Gridstream architecture and will operate as a node
within a Gridstream network. It is similar in construction to a Gridstream metering endpoint, but
with an optional onboard antenna and I/O ports. It has received Modular FCC approval when used
with the approved cable and antenna.
The Gridstream S4SBR provides two digital I/O ports and two analog input ports, which can also be
configured as two general purpose I/O ports. One of the digital ports can also be configured as a
counter by sensing either the rising end of the pulse, trailing edge of the pulse, or both. These
interfaces are accessible via the Device Control Word (DCW) programming language.
NOTE: All Gridstream S4SBR models have identical base electrical architecture with minor physical
variations based on antenna/connector type and whether or not the super cap circuitry is included.
The on-board antenna version is designed for customers seeking the lowest-cost solution. The
onboard F-antenna exhibits nominal performance. The external antenna version is designed for
customers who require enhanced performance (greater range).
The Gridstream S4SBR shares similarities with other Gridstream IWR devices, but also has
differences.
