1. PRODUCT OVERVIEW

This document provides the information
required for the selection, installation, op-
eration and maintenance of the 

DATARADIO

T-96H radiomodem.

1.1 Intended 

Audience

This document is designed for use by engi-
neering design, installation, and mainte-
nance personnel.

1.2 Introduction

This chapter provides the information nec-
essary to identify and assess the capabilities
of the T-96H. Connection and operation are
also described.

1.3 General 

Description

The T-96H is a transparent real-time radio-
modem designed primarily for SCADA and
telemetry use. The T-96H is available in
different versions according to radio fre-
quency. Common features to all versions
include:

 

Data speeds of  4800  to  19200 b/s
(9600 b/s maximum in half channels)
using standard RS-232 interface.

 

Built–in 8 channel synthesized radio
transceiver for VHF, UHF and
900 MHz.

 

Power output of 1W to 5W (software
controlled).

 

Half duplex or simplex operation.

 

Transmit switching via RTS.

 

On-line diagnostics monitoring

 

Offline local and remote diagnostics.

 

Compatible with 

DATARADIO

  T-Base

for base station or repeater use.

 

Compatible with any

DATARADIO

Interoperability Standard

 (DIOS)

equipment for data rate up to 9600 b/s.

1.4 Physical 

Description

The T-96H consists of a logic PCB (which
includes the modem circuitry) and a sepa-
rate radio module. The two boards plug di-
rectly together and slide into the rails of an
extruded aluminum case. The front panel
includes the DE-15 data connector and a
SMA antenna connector, as well as three
LED indicators. Power connections are
made through the DE-15 data connector.
The unit is not hermetically sealed and
should be mounted in a suitable enclosure
where dust and/or a corrosive atmosphere
are anticipated. There are no external
switches or adjustments. Operating pa-
rameters are set using software.

Channel selection may be done using an
internal DIP switch, by strapping the appro-
priate pins on the DE-15 data connector, or
by selecting the desired channel using the
T96HRSS or the OFLNDIAG.

1.5 Configuration

Operating characteristics of the T-96H are
configured by means of 

Radio Service Soft-

ware

 (T96HRSS - p/n 085 03250-xxx)

available from your sales representative.
Also available is the 

Offline Diagnostics

software (OFLNDIAG) and the 

Online Di-

agnostics Monitor

 (ONDMON) which give

access to offline diagnostics & commands
(local and remote) and online diagnostics
monitoring  with or without a T-Base. Both
programs are MSDOS based and will run on
any 486 or higher PC (2 Megabytes memory
required).

The T-96H requires the use of the
T96HRSS for both configuration and ad-
justment.
