Connecting the DCS 300 to the 900 MHz RF Network
The DCS 300 can communicate with Intermec’s 900 MHz RF network. To
communicate with this network, the DCS 300 contains a 900 MHz RF card that
connects by an RS-485 cable to 9181 Base Radio Units (BRUs). This RF card supports
up to four ports. Devices can roam between these BRUs.
Note:
The 900 MHz card is not available on the 0300D. The 0300D can only connect to
a network through serial or Ethernet connections.
The BRUs transmit information from the DCS 300 to Intermec 900 MHz RF devices
and receive signals from them. The illustration on the next page shows an example of a
DCS 300 connected to the Intermec 900 MHz RF network.
To connect the DCS 300 and the BRU, Intermec provides you with a 4-port interface
cable. Insert one end of the cable into the port on the RF card. Use the Intermec cable
kit (Part No. 055003) or equivalent to connect to one of the DNLN ports on the other
end of the cable. You also need a Belden 89688 cable (Part No. 583326) or equivalent.
Note:
If you are using the 9180 Network Controller to communicate with the 9181
BRU, you need to configure these BRUs using the 9180 controller’s configuration
menu. Refer to your 9180 user’s manual.
