Wireless Mobile Relay (WMR) Description
The WMR (Figure 1-4) is used solely to convert the
messages sent from the iScout® to the HHPM for the user
to see. The WMR receives sensor messages with a 900
MHz local communications radio and transmits to the
HHPM with a Bluetooth module. This allows the user to
receive instantaneous messages from the sensor on the
HHPM without the requirement of an Situation Awareness
Display Unit (SADU) server. The only step that a user is
required to perform is to link the HHPM with the WMR
once the WMR has been powered on. To power on the
WMR, the operator only needs to turn the switch located
on the top of the box. When the switch is turned to the
On
position, the Power LED turns green. If the WMR is in the
Off
position, the Power LED is not on. The second LED,
or
Battery LED
, on the WMR shows when the unit is
being charged. The unit is red when it is charging and
green when the charge has exceeded 90% of battery
capacity. The connector for the battery charger is located
on the side of the unit. The battery charger is the same
model as the one used for the HHPM and is included in
the kit.
