MultiHop Configuration Software Network and Device Overview screen
The software connects to a MultiHop client radio using one of four methods.
Serial; using a USB to RS485 (for RS485 radios) or a USB to RS232 (for RS232 radios) converter cable.
Modbus TCP; using an Ethernet connection to an Ethernet radio client.
Serial DXM; using a USB cable to a DXM Controller to access a MultiHop client radio.
TCP DXM: using an Ethernet connection to a DXM Controller to access a MultiHop client radio.
Banner recommends using
BWA-UCT-900, an RS-485 to USB adapter cable with a wall plug that can power your radio while you configure
it. The adapter cable is not required when connecting to a DXM Controller.
