Introduction
The TS-D200/me-D350 range is a 1 to 5 Watt radio data modem, which can be used for
data up to 9600 baud rate (using GMSK module) in stand alone conditions.
The TS-D200/me-D350 is housed in a rugged cast-aluminium box sealed to IEC 529
(IP54) making it suitable for a wide range of mobile and
fi
xed applications.
All TS-D200 modem units meet the essential requirements of the relevant European
directives(RED2014/53/EU) and all me-D350 modems meet relevant US FCC and
Canadian regulations. In order to maintain this compliance the installation and safety
information must be adhered to at all times.
The TS-D200/me-D350 modem must only be installed where unintentional contact
cannot be made. The surface of the device may be hot to touch under certain trans-
mit conditions. A warning label is permanently displayed as part of the equipment
rating label af
fi
xed to the lid. The TS-D200/me-D350 is not designed for permanent
transmission. If prolonged transmission periods are used, the unit will become hot
and will require an additional heatsink to be
fi
tted.
When
fi
tting the TS-D200/me-D350 into a
fi
xed installation, care must be taken in the
routing of all cabling such that the insulation cannot become damaged.
The recommended supply sources for use with the TS-D200/me-D350 are a stand-
ard 12V supply, but is capable of operating in the range 9V ~ 18V.
Preparing for use
Description of modem
The TS-D200/me-D350 is a network free, point to point data radio that offers great
fl
exibility in varied applications where wireless data or voice communication is needed.
It can be used as a “dumb” radio, with no internal module
fi
tted, to allow users to facilitate
the use of their own modem and protocol. Internal link changes enable the input to be set
for TTL levels so allowing POCSAG for example. In this scenario, the radio is completely
transparent and simply needs the correct signal level inputs (see pin out details), and use
of separate control lines (PTT etc) or serial commands.
The TS-D200/me-D350 can also be
fi
tted with either a Bell 202 / V.23 module, a FFSK
module (up to 4800 baud rate) or a GMSK module (up to 9600 baud rate). These allow
communication with a pc via hyper terminal and other emulation packages. For further
information on these options, including pin outs, please refer to the separate Module
Manual available on the Mobile Expertise Global web site.
The TS-D200/me-D350 also operates as a standard radio with microphone input and
speaker output, in this mode the radio has the following associated features, these
include CTCSS/DCS, busy channel lockout and scan.
