ISM Permanent Mode : 
 
Additionally you can change the data transmission rate of the ISM radio modules from 9600 baud 
230400 baud ( see table on page 11 

 RF data rate ). With this data transmission rate the ISM Permanent 

Mode can be used which allows you to transmit measuring values automatically every time the  
value changes. 
 
 
Advantages of the 230400 Baud data rate : 

a )  approximately 1 million instead of only 200.000 

 

transmissions possible, before the 

 

batteries run out 

 

b )  ISM Permanent Mode can be used 

 
Disadvantages of the 230400 Baud data rate : 

a )  not IBRit-rf1 compatible 

 

b )  only approximately 60% range in comparison 

 

with 9600 Baud 

 
 
Please note that the change of the data transmission rate is only possible if the address of the radio 
module has been set to 

500

 before ( see page 11 ). After the change of data rate the address can be 

switched back to the old value again. 
 
After changing the data transmission rate of the ISM radio modules, it has to be also changed for the 
ISM - usb, so that the ISM-usb will be able to receive the values from the radio modules and change 
their settings. 
To do this, please click in the hardware setup on one of the 

Setup

 buttons on the right side :
