Features of RTR-500
RTR-500 can be used both as a Base Unit and a Repeater.
Using as a Base Unit
An RTR-500 Base Unit can collect data measured by and recorded in
Remote Units via wireless communication, and send the collected data to
your computer connected to the Base Unit with a USB or Serial
Communication Cable.
* If you wish to communicate by serial communication, an optional cable
(TR-07C) is needed.
* The RS-232C communication cable connector is a D-Sub 9 pin female.
* Make sure to connect it to the correct place to ensure communication, and
also make sure the cable is inserted fully, so as not to cause an improper
connection.
* The USB / Serial Ports on your computer have markings as shown below.
for USB for Serial (RS-232C)
Using as a Repeater
If the distance between an RTR-500 Base Unit and an Remote Unit exceeds
the possible range of wireless communication, it is possible to set up one or,
if necessary, multiple RTR-500 unit(s) as Repeater(s) between them in order
to route wireless communication from the Base Unit to the Remote Unit.
Compatible Base Units are RTR-500GSM and RTR-500 models.
