connected UHF radio board.

radio. Both Rx and TX are on the same frequency.
An FCC or IC license is required to operate the UHF
radio. If the base network is on the internet through an
Ethernet gateway, the “CLOUD ID” will be displayed
on the controller faceplate. Communication at the
Central can be veried by sending test commands via
the Sentinel WMS or Laguna software and looking for
acknowledgment.
