INTERFACE
Wireless communication is based on Trusted Wireless 2.0
technology. The high demand for a interference-free data
transmission using the license-free 900 MHz band, in partic-
ular via the use of the FHSS method (FHSS) and 128-bit
data encryption (AES), is fulfilled.
In addition to an RS-232 and RS-485 2-wire interface, the
RAD-900-IFS wireless module supports the option of di-
rectly connecting up to 32 I/O extension modules in the sta-
tion structure via the TBUS DIN rail connector.
Addressing of the wireless module and I/O mapping of the I/
O extension modules is carried out quickly and easily by
means of the thumbwheel on the front. Programming knowl-
edge is not required.
The PSI-CONF configuration and diagnostics software for
special functionality and diagnostic options in the wireless
module is available free of charge.
Features
– Flexible network applications: I/O data, serial data,
PLC/Modbus RTU mode
– Adjustable data rates for the wireless interface
– Easy point-to-point or network structures (star, repeat-
er)
– Quick and easy startup thanks to simple wireless mod-
ule addressing using the thumbwheel on the front
– Integrated RS-232 and RS-485 interface
– Can be extended with up to 32 I/O modules per station
via T-BUS (hot-swappable)
– 128-bit data encryption (AES)
– Unique network addressing via plug-in configuration
memory (RAD-CONF) for secure, parallel operation of
multiple networks (different RF bands)
– Data rates and ranges can be adjusted
