RFOT
Channel Programming
Different wireless channels may be used to create multiple networks in one area, or to avoid wireless interference from
other devices. Any MadgeTech data logger or RFC1000 wireless transceiver that is on the same network is required to use
the same channel. If all of the devices are not on the same channel, the devices will not communicate with one another.
MadgeTech wireless data loggers and RFC1000 wireless transceivers are programmed by default on channel 25.
CHANNEL NOTE:
MadgeTech wireless data loggers and
wireless transceivers purchased prior to
April 15, 2016
are programmed by default to channel 11. Please refer to
the Product User Guide provided with these devices for
instructions to change the channel selection if needed.
