Internal Antenna Mode
– In Internal Antenna mode the PMD listens for
Patrol Suite RF messages using the internal 433MHz antenna. Any
messages that are received are forwarded to the paired Bluetooth device
using the Serial Port Profile. The PMD LED indicates the state of the
Bluetooth link (i.e. the presence of a paired device).
•
External Antenna Mode
– External Antenna mode is exactly the same as
Internal Antenna mode except that the PMD listens for Patrol Suite RF
messages using the external antenna.
OPID functionality is enabled in Wake, Internal Antenna, and External Antenna modes. In these modes,
the PMD regularly transmits OPID RF messages using the internal 433MHz antenna. An active and
authorized OPID must be present for the user to access the PHMU Setup Menu
with the PHMU Menu
Key.
NOTE: PMD can be charged in any mode (including Off Mode) by connecting the USB power, the battery
LED will indicate the charging status.
