NETWORK_CHANNELS
Network channel selection is used to allow the operation of several networks in the same
location. If the same network channel is selected for two networks which are close to
each other, the networks will interfere with each other, and may not communicate at all.
For network functionality these network channel requirements must be adhered to:
?? The Master Radio and Remote Radio (or Radios) of each network must be
assigned to the same network channel.
?? Networks in close proximity must be assigned to different network channels.
The Os2400 radio can support 32 channels. In this case a channel is a 500KHz wide
frequency range used for communication between two radios.
NETWORK TYPES
POINT-TO-POINT
There are two network types, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint.
In all networks there is only one Master Radio.
Point–to–Point networks are the simplest radio network. In a point-to-point network one
Master Radio is cabled to a Master Device and one Remote Radio is cabled to a
Remote Device.
Several point-to-point networks can operate at the same location, however each network
must use a different communication channel.
Each point-to-point network operates independently of each other, there can be no
intercommunication between the point-to-point networks.
