3 ISM Radio
3.1 ISM Radio Board (Modbus Slave ID 1)
The ISM embedded radio boards are available in either DX80 MultiHop or DX80 Performance.
The DX80 MultiHop architecture creates a tree network with a Master radio and one or more Repeater/Slave devices. The
MultiHop architecture is suited for networks requiring repeater devices to provide extended range or obstacle avoidance.
MultiHop ISM radio devices are defined with R2, R4, and R5 in the model number.
• DXMxxx-xxR2 - MultiHop 900 MHz
• DXMxxx-xxR4 - MultiHop 2.4 GHz
• DXMxxx-xxR5 - MultiHop 900 MHz, 100 mW
• DXMxxx-xxR9 - MultiHop 900 MHz, (Australia)
The DX80 Performance architecture is a star-based architecture with one Gateway radio and 1 to 47 Node devices. The
Nodes communicate with the Gateway in a time slot method that is very predictable. DX80 Performance Gateway ISM radio
devices are defined with R1, R3, and R8 in the model number.
• DXMxxx-xxR1 - DX80 Performance 900MHz
• DXMxxx-xxR3 - DX80 Performance 2.4GHz
• DXMxxx-xxR8 - DX80 Performance 900MHz (Australia)
The settings outlined below are specific for the DXM Modbus Slave. Not all selections are possible with the DXM Modbus
Slave.

Button Operation
For DXM models without a LCD display, use the button (B) to bind the ISM radio. For models with a LCD display,
use the ISM menu to bind the radio.
LED Operation
The LED located on the ISM radio module indicates power and communications traffic.
• Solid green DX80 ISM radio LED: Indicates power.
• Flashing green MultiHop ISM radio LED indicates operation.
• Red and green combined: Communications traffic and binding.
ISM board LED operations also display on the LED on the right side of the I/O base board.
