None

Notes:

1. Maximum output stated, step measurements for power could vary by +/- 2.0 dBm.

2. Range distances are estimates and vary with the installation environment. Measurements were taken

at 4.1 miles with a 5 dBi antenna for FCC modules.

3. See Regulatory Information in this guide.

4. Contact your sales representative for more details.

5. While the use of FEC does not affect the actual PER, it does allow correct reception at a lower SNR,

thus extending communication range. We’ve measured this to yield an effective sensitivity increase on

the order of 3dBm.

Force 9600

/Sleep Interrupt

Force 9600 – When pulled logic Low and then

applying power or resetting, the transceiver’s

serial interface is forced to a 9600, 8-N-1 rate.

Sleep Interrupt – When taken Low, this pin wakes

the radio from any of the three sleep modes.

Note:

Pulling this pin to GND disables some

modes of operation, therefore it should
