CEN-HPRFGW
Introduction
The CEN-HPRFGW gateway is an RF transceiver that enables the Isys
®
TPS-6X wireless touchpanel to communicate with a 2-Series control
system. Wi-Fi friendly RF technology permits selection from 16 ISM
channels within the 2.4 GHz spectrum to minimize the possibility of
interference with other RF equipment including 802.11 devices. The
CEN-HPRFGW affords a range of approximately 100 to 200 feet (30 to
61 meters) indoors and up to 1000 feet (305 meters) outdoors.
Up to 16 touchpanels may be associated with a single CEN-HPRFGW
gateway. Setup is simple, utilizing dynamic discovery to locate and
acquire each touchpanel automatically. Each wireless connection is
monitored continuously, diligently keeping track when touchpanels go to
sleep, shut down or wander out of range and restoring communications
seamlessly when any touchpanel reappears on the network. The control
data to and from each associated touchpanel is passed cleanly and
quickly through the gateway without any cumbersome processing to
effect performance. Excessive network traffic and noise are combated
using intelligent data routing to ensure every control signal is delivered
intact to its intended destination without interruption.
Multiple CEN-HPRFGW units can be used to allow roaming with the
TPS-6X touchpanel.
The CEN-HPRFGW and the CENI-HPRFGW (international version) are
functionally identical. For simplicity within this guide, CEN-HPRFGW is
used except where noted.
