2.2 Wireless Transmitter Module
The transmitter module is connected to an RS232 device with the RJ12 to DB9
connector cable provided. There are two slide switches on the unit:
SW1
• Standard Power- The RF module is powered on continuously. The
transmitter module can communicate wireless at any time.
• Save Power – The RF module is powered on only when there is data
activity on the RS232 port, otherwise the RF module is set to sleep mode to
save power. This mode may be selected when the wireless transmitter is
connected & powered by a battery powered device. While the RF module is
in sleep mode, there is no wireless communication between the transmitter
& receiver modules. The RF module can only be waken from the RS232
device when there is data activity.
SW2
• Normal – The slide switch should be set to Normal when the transmitter is
connected to an RS232 device.
• CONFIG – The slide switch should be set to Config when the transmitter is
connected to the PC for configuration.
The transmitter can be powered either directly thru the RJ12 connection by
the RS232 device, or can be powered by an external 9 Vdc adaptor. The DC
adaptor can be purchased as an optional accessory.
