This RF base station is for PakBus networks with UHF/VHF radios. The RF500B resides at the computer site and serves as a link between field stations and repeater stations. It includes an RF500M Radio Modem connected to a PS100 Power Supply. The modem and power supply are shipped mounted to a 10-in. x 12-in. metal plate.

Features

Includes the RF500M RF modem and PS100 power supply mounted to a metal plate

Supports multiple radio configurations
 
Compatible with PakBus dataloggers (e.g., CR800, CR850, CR1000, CR3000, CR10X-PB, CR510-PB, CR23X-PB)
Uses software (i.e., DevConfig) instead of hardware modifications to upgrade the operating system (OS) and change RF ID or other settings
Provides an RS-232 port (DTE) for modem configuration or attachment of an RS-232 radio
Avoids all collisions within a network, thus increasing polling speeds and reducing overall current drain
