READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE WIRELESS FOR RS-232
The Wireless RS232 Extender is capable of operating at a baud rate of either
9600 or 19200. Please see page #12 for details on setting the correct baud rate
for your RS232 device.
The metal housing is immune to EMI interference and the external antenna is
capable of extending RS-232 control up to 100 feet (30 meters) through 8 brick
walls. Multiple Sender units can also operate simultaneously, allowing greater
flexibility in a wireless RS-232 solution. Please see page #13 for details on
setting up a wireless RS232 network.
Although the Sender unit can be used without external power, the RS-232
protocol does not outline specific guidelines for sending power to another RS-232
device. In most cases, only a small amount of power can be extracted (~10mA)
from the DTR (Data Terminal Ready) and RTS (Ready To Send) lines. This
is only suitable for lower power devices (e.g. mouse devices). If there is not
enough available power, the LED stays in the OFF state.
