Why Go Wireless ?
•Wireless Units are easily re-usable i.e. temporary installation
•No long and costly wiring lay outs
•Non contacting for precision or rotating measurements i.e. temp, pressure, RPM, torque
•Wireless link can cost less than buying and installing a cable
•Easy to Seal
•Eliminates Failure due to Cable damage
•Long Battery Life
•Radio communication is highly regulated
•New and maybe unfamiliar aspects of RF such as antenna positioning and RF interference sources
•Planning, buying and testing a wireless link may cost more initially
•Access is usually still required for changing or recharging of batteries

T24 - Wireless Considerations
• Range How far must data travel ? Nominal range “open field range” ACTUAL range depends on environment
• Data What type of data and how fast ?
• RF Interference 2.4 GHz is a busy part of the RF
spectrum Radio Signals can be intercepted &
Jammed Installations in proximity must be
co-ordinated

1. Sleep Delay : Time lapse that module will sleep after last “Keep Awake” message. Handheld send Keep Awake messages every 5 sec; therefore it is wise to set this to 30 seconds so if Handheld moves out of range the Acquisition Modules Sleeps. Default - (0) no sleep delay
2. Data Tag : This is the tag attached to any data provided by the Acquisition Module. Default - last 4 HEX digits of Radio ID.

Advance Settings 1. Sleep Delay : Time lapse that
module will sleep after last “Keep Awake” message. Handheld send Keep Awake messages every 5 sec; therefore it is wise to set this to 30 seconds so if Handheld moves out of range the Acquisition Modules Sleeps. Default - (0) no sleep delay
2. Data Tag : This is the tag attached to any data provided by the Acquisition Module. Default - last 4 HEX digits of Radio ID.
3. Add in Shunt for Calibration
