Страница 9: ...lso if you are using accessory power depending on the input voltage and power demands the power modules on the opposite side from the RF module can also generate significant heat they are very efficient but have high load capacity As a result we recommend blowing air over both the radio module side first priority as well as the opposite power module side Failure to cool the radios properly can res...

Страница 10: ...1 Hardware serial port connection between two units TCP This is an easy to configure hardware connection which connects serial ports on two different radio modules An advantage is that data will never arrive out of order due to the TCP connection state It has some potential disadvantages in terms of connection and reconnection since it does have a connection state connected disconnected Below is a...
