TS4000 Radio Modem User’s Manual TS4000 Overview 1
TS4000 Overview
The TS4000 Radio Modem is an integrated radio and modem designed for the
wireless transmission of digital data. The TS4000 can transfer data at rates up
to 19,200 bits per second. The TS4000 includes a synthesized VHF, UHF or 900
MHz transceiver that can be programmed for up to 99 channels.
Introduction
This product is ideally suited to OEMs and system integrators who require a
versatile radio modem in a single package. The TS4000 is configured with
windows based PC configuration software.
Main Features
Features
High speed channel rates up to 19,200 bits per second.
Selectable operating modes for transparent and packet data operation.
High efficiency switching voltage regulator provides a wide input voltage
range and uses minimum power regardless of the input voltage.
Provides addressed communications for devices that are not directly
addressable themselves.
Includes store-and-forward data repeating for wide area coverage.
Provides two individually configurable data ports.
Supports data activation (three wire) and RTS/CTS handshake protocols.
Configurable RF output power levels.
Programmable receive sensitivity level (squelch) for use on noisy channels.
Watertight case option for outdoor use and marine installations.
Clear Channel Scan - The TS4000 will automatically and dynamically select
the best channel for communication without intervention from the host
equipment.
Automatic CW Station ID - The TS4000 can be configured to periodically
transmit a Morse code station ID.
Remote Diagnostics allows the status of remote TS4000s to be checked
over the air.
Flexible Data Interface
Two highly configurable user data serial ports.
Primary port supports connection to virtually any asynchronous user device.
Second port can be used for configuration, control and remote diagnostics.
Full handshake and data activation modes supported on serial port 1.
Data activation mode requires only receive and transmit data lines for full
communication with user device.
Data rates from 300 to 38,400 baud.
RS-232, RS-485 or TTL signal levels.
Integrated RF Transceiver
Synthesized transceivers cover VHF, UHF and 900 MHz bands.
Programmable RF output power levels.
Channel frequencies are stored in internal flash memory and are selectable
on-the-fly using simple ASCII command strings.
Selectable Channel Protocols
User selectable scrambling codes for private network communications.
Optional Forward Error Correction (FEC) using block coding and interleaving
corrects channel induced errors.
User selectable transparent or AirNet packet data transfer modes.
