2.1. Hardware
The hardware elements of the Wireless CDR system consist of the Wireless Sensor (with
battery pack); Antenna / Receiver and USB Interface units (known collectively as the
Base Station), a compatible PC workstation, and interconnecting cables.
The following block diagram shows the functional relationships between modules and
devices within the CDR Wireless system. The Antenna / Receiver unit can be located
remotely from the USB Interface unit via Category 5 cable (RJ-45 connectors); however,
in the following illustration, they are shown in their default ("docked") configuration.
