PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 

The  transceiver  RRF  is  an  interface  converter  from  Rs232-Rs422/485-USB  to  Radio  Frequency  868  MHz, 
with 3 modes of operation: DIRECT, SINGLE and MULTI, selectable via software through a special configu-
rator. The data format is fixed for all modes: 38400, N, 8, 1.

Used in pairs, simulates a serial connection using a wireless connection. (Application 1). 

DIRECT MODE

 

MULTI MODE

 

This mode is used to capture the weight from multiple weight transmitters, model TRF (up to 15): in this case 
the RRF transceiver communicates with the TRF and made available on the serial port (or USB) a string with 
all the weight obtained. (Applications 4, 5 and 6).  
The RF communication frequency is 868MHz, with power up to 10mW, with 7 operation channels selectable 
from dip-switch for installations where are present multiple RF devices. 
The power is at 5Vdc and can be supplied via the USB port when the transceiver is connected to a PC, oth-
erwise can be provided by the weight indicator we produce. 
The  RRF  has  programmable  operating  parameters,  such  as  RF  Power  and  the  Communication  Protocol. 
The  programming  of  the  operating  parameters  is  made  through  a  PC  application  that  allows  you  to  easily 
configure and just in few steps the system used (TRF and RRF). 

It is used to interface with the weight transmitter for load cell, model TRF, in the manners explained below. In 
particular it can be used to gain the weight from a single transmitter through the communication port Rs232, 
Rs485 or USB. (Applications 2 e 3).
